Wishing you all a safe, healthy, happy & creative 2020!

January birthday celebration Thursday 1/30
for Connie, Katie & Barb.

Our first card of the new year is our traditional calendar card.

I know I have done this style of card in the past, 

I cannot find a picture of it, grrr.

My dear friend Hetty in the Netherlands posted this on her blog.

What a great idea!

So this is what I came up with for our first class in January.

Best part it folds flat to fit in an envelope to be mailed!

Please bring your basic class kit 

including

bone folder

scissor

liquid glue

tweezers

favorite coloring medium

I used distress oxides & foam blender

shaded lilac, blueprint sketch, 

wild honey, barn door

sharpies for details

water brush

optional items

foam tape

black edger

That should do it, see you on the 9th!

brown edger

if you have 

Distress oxides, rusty hinge, fossilized amber,

peeled paint, spiced marmalade
