I’m offering another fun and beautiful class to go. This time, I’m using Stampin’ Up!’s Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack. I’ve designed full-size, all-occasion cards. The kit includes birthday, thinking of you, thank you, and friend-themed greeting cards. You’ll make two each of the 10 designs, a total of 20 cards, for $45 + $10 to ship. (If you’re local to Mesa, Arizona, you’re welcome to pick up your class packet to save on shipping.)
You’ll receive all of the ingredients, including the leftover cards, extra layers, envelopes, ribbon, and embellishments (a full package of the new Low Profile Dots) , to create the cards, as well as a simple PDF. Created with Stampin’ Up!’s Mixed Media Florals Memories & More Card Pack, these cards don’t require stamping. You will need to supply your own adhesives.
Packets will be ready to be shipped and/or picked up beginning Monday, February 17, 2025.
