We Have to Reschedule Lyn's Annual Calendar Class

The rescheduled date is Saturday, November 23rd.

Anyone who has attended Lyn's annual calendar class knows it is quite an event.  In order to have sufficient time to finish creating and kitting for this popular class, we will be moving the date to Saturday, November 23rd - from 10-1pm.

In the meantime, enjoy another month's design!  The March calendar banner hangs around the bow.



It's that time of year again for the annual calendar class!  This year's calendar is a brand new easel design fashioned after a traditional easel card but different to keep it conveniently sized for display purposes. You will construct the easel base first and then make 12 'card front' calendar months. Each month will easily clip onto the easel.  The finished calendar month sizes are 5-1/4 x 5-1/4.
 
Graphic 45 papers are featured again this year as there are just so many wonderful design elements to work with for a project of this size.  Expect a vintage, shabby chic flair with lots of embellishments!  All levels are welcome. 
 
Be prepared to bring basic kit items:  adhesives (Glue Dots, wet glue, tape runner, foam mounting tape), scissors (fine point fussy cut style and regular scissors), inks (Distress Vintage Photo and Old Paper with blending pads), tools (edge distressing tool, sand paper).  Additional items may be added.
