Nov. 2023 Holiday Class

Although email newsletters are fun and informative, receiving a handmade holiday card from you is still a very special treat indeed! For this year, I’ve tried to include different Fancy Folds to give you really fun choices! Now is the time to make some really special cards that show how much you care, especially if you can't meet together in person.

Making one (or more) sets of these from a Stamp-A-Stack (SAS) is the easiest way to create lots of beautiful cards without the need to come up with the design, buy lots of different stamps and supplies, and then set aside a place to cut, score, and find matching ribbons and embellishments to make them all up!

Each SAS set is pre-cut and ready to assemble, includes printed colorful instructions, premium SU envelopes, scored card bases, all the Foam and glue dots you need, and even the bows are already tied for you!

All materials are provided for in-person classes, however it is recommended that you bring a roller-type adhesive for neatness and speed, plus a tube of green Tombow Multipurpose liquid glue for those die cuts and permanence.

• Making 3 or more different DESIGN CHOICES or more than 12 cards may require only making one completed sample of the card, then stamp/emboss/die cut the other parts and complete your cards later at home if needed.
• Many supplies are limited, and orders will be taken in the order they are received. (If a substitution is needed, I will contact you first.)
• Sessions will be limited to a minimum of 2 and maximum of 8 attendees. I will try to space you apart as much as possible.
• 
  Please bring your own Big Shot/die cutting machine (if you have one) for your personal use to speed things up and reduce the need for sharing mine.
  

DESIGN CHOICES: (if multiple paper patterns are shown, a variety is included in your option.)

1.  Magical Meadow –wintery colors with silvery fern die-cut, bow, and delicate webbing accents. (4 patterns/colors)

Shop the Summer Market on 7/30/23!

If you are interested in attending an open-market summer craft fair, I will be one of 40+ vendors at the WCHS Summer Market in Walnut Creek this Sunday, 7/30.  

You can shop for vintage finds at the Barn Sale,, unique items from us vendors, grab a bite at the food trucks, and check out the museum which will be open for tours!  

The Summer Market is a fundraising event for the Shadelands Ranch Museum under the Walnut Creek Historical Society, where I also sell my papercraft items during their Holiday Teas later in the year.  

Come on by to say hello!

August 2023 SAS

 Summer is here, and it’s time for another quarterly Stamp-A-Stack (SAS) event!

With the rising cost of supplies, I’ve made a slight modification to the discount offer for these classes so that I can continue to do them at affordable prices.  Here are all the guidelines, which will also be posted under the “SAS Notes” tab (across the top of the page) on my blog www.pengwenstamps.blogspot.com.

The highlights to note are:

·       If you place a minimum Stampin’ Up order of $45 or more, you can earn one Order Credit good for -$10 off your Class Fee.  Two orders would be -$20 off the fee.  

·       Order Credits are valid for 1 year after purchase date before they expire. 

#1 Brilliant Rainbows

·       Alternatively, Order Credits may also be used for a set of hand- stamped cards or accumulated to earn a retired stamp set (3 credits or more.)

 DESIGN CHOICES: (if multiple paper patterns are shown, ALL are included in that card choice
unless noted, as in Card #1.)

#2 Chocolate/Cookies/Coffee

1.  Brilliant Rainbows: The fastest and easiest card of the bunch, cutting 4 papers with the rainbow die gives you 4 cards at once! Even the cloud is cut 2 at a time! Specify if you’d prefer coloring A, B, or C; one coloring/4 cards).

 2. Chocolate/Cookies/Coffee: one card, three options that you can select.  Each would bring a smile to some special person in your life when you remember their favorite treat!

#3 Art in Bloom

 3. Art in Bloom: these very dimensional cards have so much texture! First the flowers are stamped all at once in the Stamparatus, sponged for a bit of color, then die cut and embossed simultaneously!  Other sentiments also available.

 4. Garden Greenhouse: this fancy greenhouse die makes the vibrant flowers and leaves inside really stand out.  A very versatile card for many occasions.
