Card Party for February, and a new teacher!

After great classes last fall, SG's Card Party class restarts in February with the same concept...three teachers, three cards, three tags, three stations, and three totally different approaches to cardmaking.

Today, we're showing you the card and tag that will be taught by Lindsey Amschler. This is one-third of the projects you'll be making in the class. Lindsey's projects will showcase everything vintage, including distressing techniques and sweet printed vintage images like the young girl on the tag above.

Many of you will already know Lindsey through her employment at a store here in Springfield that closed some time ago. She makes a wonderful addition to our teaching staff and will bring enthusiasm and a love for papercrafting to the Card Party classes.

Lindsey has wonderful papercrafting credentials! She has had a card published in the Cricut Card magazine and has been a guest designer for October Afternoon.

This Card Party class takes place Thursday, February 23 at 6 pm. The fee is $15. To sign up, call 417-886-0440. (After this month, we're going to try to keep this class on the second Thursday of the month so that everyone will know when it will be held, instead of jumping around each month to different weeks.)

As soon as possible, we'll show you Amy Roller's (also a new addition to the staff) and Katrina Hunt's cards and tags.

Lindsey and Amy are replacing Allison Davis and Stacey Atchley. Our business here at SG continues to evolve, and we continually find ourselves in a time crunch. Eliminating this extra responsibility for them will help us concentrate on areas that need attention, and we think Lindsey and Amy will win your hearts. Katrina already feels like a member of the family!
