I've just discovered that the post I tried to put up at 8am this morning, was saved as a draft and has only just been published as I write this next one, because I've now pushed it through! So sorry about that... guess you can see why I'm not the world's most frequent blogger, it's a struggle for me sometimes!
Anyway, I know this is twice in one day, but I have something new to share, just finished today! Here's a photo of the project I'll be teaching at my home this coming Sunday. It's my last class for the year (at my house anyway - if you've seen something here you like and you can gather a group of friends together at your home, I'm happy to come and teach you - but you have to live in the Auckland area, sorry!). Over the Christmas break I'll be planning my classes and taking workshop bookings for the early new year, so stay tuned for details of those classes.
On to Sunday's class - this is a box with an easel card on the top with a mini calendar for 2012. It would make a great desk accessory, and a fabulous gift for that difficult person you still haven't bought a Christmas present for! I purposely made it with the Mocha Morning specialty papers, one reason was because I wanted to use them again, and the second reason was so that you could gift this to a male if you wanted, it's not too girly, but it hopefully appeals to women too! There's a surprise in the drawer - little partitions which each hold a Kiwiana wine glass charm, there are six charms and you'll get to make those in the class too if you attend! I've even made the partitions removeable so that later on you can use the drawer to hold memo paper, paperclips or other small stationery items - it's a handy size for those little things on your desk!
The class fee is a bargain price - just $15 to make a fabulous gift and have a relaxing crafty afternoon, too! You will need to bring scissors, a bone folder if you have one and lots of good sticky adhesvie - Stampin' Up!'s Sticky Strip is ideal for this project. 3D items need really strong adhesive and there's few papercrafting adhesives stickier and stronger than that one!
Seats at the class are very limited and filling now, so email me now to reserve your place and get directions to my house (if you've never been here before). Reservations close at midday on Saturday so that I can get the kits prepared on Saturday night. Click here to send me an email and book in, or ask me a question about the class.
Oh and I should say that I am not doing a launch party for the new mini this year - we're all so busy with Christmas plans at this time of year, and I have yet to make any Christmas cards I can send out, myself! Shameful, for a "professional" cardmaker - but I've been too busy teaching others to make any of my own! Attendees at Sunday's class will however get to see the new mini of course, and be the first to see the samples I've made with some of the gorgeous new products we have to offer. That includes some projects I made specifically for publication. I may fill you in on that a bit more, some other time!
If you'd like a copy of the new Summer Mini, just contact me to place your December order and I'll pop a free copy in for you with that.
Thanks for visiting!
