Stampin' Saturday! Join the fun Jan 17, 11 - ~1:30 and make 2 amazing cards!

Jan 17 is the first Stampin' Saturday of 2026! We will get started at 11:00 and run until about 1:30, making 2 cards and eating a light lunch. All I ask, as always, is $5 *or* an order from my site. Of course, if you are on my team, order from yourself!

Please RSVP by Jan 16 so I can have all of your materials ready! Space is limited. Email violn1001@aol.com to save your spot!

Card #1: We will be making a card for the guy in your life, using the Gears and Textures set. Kind of a "steampunk' vibe with the metals (and I will show you how to make the metallic-looking background) and gears setting off the cheery birthday wish!

Card #2: We will be breaking out a new suite, LOVELY ARRANGEMENTS, and another new set, CREATIVE HAVEN, for card #2! This is a very special fun fold. This sweet card design has a special surprise! The sentiment spins and changes completely!!! I am obsessed!

Can't make it on the 17 but you really want to create the masculine or this reversible card? Stamp by mail! Paypal (teachph@aol.com) or Zelle just $10 for 1 or $15 for everything you need* to create both cards of the month. You will receive all cardstock and papers (may vary slightly from the pic) cut and scored, images stamped and colored, ribbons and other embellishments (if used) PLUS detailed instructions mailed to your home. Kits will be mailed the Monday following class. *NO ADHESIVES other than dimensionals will be mailed. Not all cards will require embellishments and ribbon
