On March 7th we will be making three cards using some of the latest releases from the Lockhart Stamp Co. Join us at either 10:30 am or 6:30 pm to make a unique flamingo, three sailboats, and a gardening scene.  Cost of the class is $15.




On March 12th you can join us for the Tri-Fold and Watercolor Card Class.  We will be using the new Art Impressions tri-fold card kits to create beautiful cut-away cards.  One of the cards will incorporate colored pencil techniques while the other will be done on watercolor paper using Art Impressions' watercolor stamping technique.  Classes are at 10:30 am and 6:30 pm and the cost is $15.  Call today to sign up.








Don't forget to sign up if you would like to join us for our annual tag sale.  You will need a number to place on your items.  See the last post to this blog or call the store for more details.

MARCH SCHEDULE



Even though it doesn't look like it, spring is definitely on its way.  Below is our new schedule of classes for March. 


  
We're offering some of your old favorites as well as a few new classes.  On the 7th, we'll be making three  cards using newly released stamps from Lockhart.  The look is fresh, and we'll be using patterned papers in parts of our stamped designs.  On March 12th, we'll be using the Art Impressions Cottage Try-Fold set to make two really cute cut-away cards. On one we'll be blending with colored pencils and the other we will be doing the Art Impressions watercolor technique using markers with stamps on watercolor paper.  Believe me, once you try it you won't want to stop.  

We're having our third annual Tag Sale on Saturday, March 23. Now's the time to clean out those drawers and closets and collect all of the gently used stamps, papers, punches, and other supplies you're no longer interested in.  Bring them in priced to sell, and all of your sales will earn you store credit so you can get some new and exciting replacements.  You can also shop the tag sale to get some real bargains!  Prices must be in whole dollar amounts. You can price items individually or try several stamps in a bag for one price.  Call the store to get your personal ID number which must be placed on each price tag.  Items can be dropped off from Wednesday, March 20 through Friday, March 22.  You do not need to be present for the sale, but any unsold items can either be reclaimed by Wednesday, March 27 or we will donate them to local programs and charities. Our first two tag sales were HUGE successes.  Space is limited, so reserve yours early.

Spring has sprung with the arrival of the Secret Garden line.  There are some beautiful floral designs in a delightfully "springy" palette.
