New Classes and a New Shop

Newsflash :)
I can finally reveal that I'll be starting regular classes (hopefully) at The Papeterie in Aberdeen this month. I'll be doing some "next step" card classes, with each class concentrating on a specific technique or techniques.
The classes will be aimed at those who want to move on from the very basics and learn some papercraft techniques that they can take away and use at home.
Here's a sneaky peek at one of the cards we'll be making - they won't all be xmas cards though.


The first class will be on Tuesday the 27th September from 10am - 12noon at The Papeterie, will cost £15 and we'll be concentrating on embossing with die-cutting machines.
You should take along a basic kit e.g, trimmer, scissors, double-sided tape/glue and other favourite tools.
To reserve your place please call Charlotte or Rachel the Elf at The Papeterie on 01224 802337
If there is sufficient interest I'll be running the classes fortnightly.
