Birthday banner class

Birthday Banner

Join me for Class on May 30th 1:30-3:30 pm
Not able to make it to Apple Valley?
Banner is also available as a kit!


 
 Here is what you need for class or to put together your kit:  
  • scissors, 
  • adhesive including lots of pop dots -  I used a double layer of pop dots behind the discs and doilies, whatever you use to put on gems, 
  • 1/4" hole punch 
  • and ink, lots of ink.  I used Distress Ink but lots of other dye inks would work - Memento and Stampin' Up to name two,  Chalk ink would work too- the little Colorbox cat eyes would be great.  
Here are the colors I used:  
  1. Barn Door (red), 
  2. Dusty Concord (purple), 
  3. Mowed Lawn (green), 
  4. Picked Raspberry (pink), 
  5. Ripe Persimmon (orange), 
  6. Salty Ocean (bright blue) 
  7. and Squeezed Lemonade (yellow).

Also available are beautiful kits from two prior classes

Mini Book Kit $25

I have a few mini book kits left if you would like to make another one or you missed it in March! To see more pictures of the book email me and I will send you the March newsletter which featured 5 pictures of the book!



Secret Garden Book Kit  $50

I have FOUR of these beautiful Secret Garden book kits available.  This was a class I taught in the spring of 2013.  The kit includes a hand stitched book, all papers, die cuts,  ribbons, embellishments and gems - over 150 pieces.  There are 3 pages of directions which include photos of each page.  More than 8 people have made this book from the kit using just the directions and they all said it was very easy to do at home.  If you would like more info, please email me.  If you ordered a kit on the April class day, you do not need to email me - I have your kit ready for next Saturday!
