I just added another couple classes to my schedule. I find that weekends work for some and not others. I am going to try and offer a weeknight as well as a weekend class every theme. Details of my classes can be found on the tab at the top. The next few months will be busy as we will be getting ready for all of the holidays. Please be sure to sign up early! Thanks.

I made this card for a friend to thank her for a recent workshop she held. It features the set I received at convention, Just Believe.
