Card-Making Class

 Last Sunday I had the opportunity to finally meet the woman who I've been ordering Stampin Up card supplies from since I moved to NH in 2020.  Lorraine lives about 50 minutes south of me and when she offered this Sunday class I readily signed up.

Lorraine has the entire basement devoted to her crafting. Here is the table all set for the class.

I couldn't capture it all but had to admire all the sample cards including this one I plan to replicate twice for the 10 year birthday of granddaughter #1 and the 2 year birthday of granddaughter #4.




We made three cards together, two birthday cards and a Valentine.


The one below was my favorite.  Before I mail this one off to a birthday recipient I need to make some more.


Lorraine is on the right below.  I'm in the back holding a card over my head.


A good time was had by all.

Looks like a fun and creative afternoon and the cards were great to see as well as all the smiling faces of those who made them.
