Here are some extra supplies to bring to class besides your basic crafting kit:

versamark ink

regular chalks (shimmer, metallic is great, too!)

silhouette flower stamp (like what we used in April)

1/16th hole punch

I'm looking forward to stamping with you again! ~Kim~

May Beginner Card Club

Hello again! In April we learned about dye ink. Now its time to stamp with chalk inks. This is a very clean and simple card, but perfect for when you need something quick. Believe it or not, this really is a 10 minute card (or maybe even less!!!).

Here's what to bring to class (if you have it) besides your basic craft kit:

Chalk ink in yellow, turquoise, or brown and aqua colors.

Clear acrylic blocks (if needed)

Small phrase stamp (1-3 inch)

Branch/twig/tree stamp-not too compact, but a with little open space

Double stick foam pop dots

I realize a lot of you might not have any chalk inks, so don't worry if you don't!

Don't forget to call All About Pictures at 364-4141 to reserve your stamping spot! See you soon! ~Kim~

April Giftbag of Cards

"QUITE CONTRARY" to what you might think, this bag of cards is really easy to make! All About Pictures has gotten in a lot of new papers, and the Quite Contrary line is a cardmaker's dream! I had a terrible time making up my mind, but finally narrowed it down. You know me......there's hardly any paper I don't like! If you haven't made a gift bag of cards before, come and try it out. We'll use 2 different 12 x 12 patterned papers, some solid cardstock, pretty velour ribbon, buttons, and 2 hours later you've got a gift to give to yourself, or someone else!

We're going to play with these pretty papers on Thursday April 29th from 6:30 to 8:30. Call All About Pictures at 364-4141 if you have any questions and to reserve your stamping spot! I'm looking forward to crafting with you! ~Kim~
