Third Halloween Project

I was going to keep this third project a secret until the night of the class, but it's too cute not to show. It's a little treat bag, has a velcro closer, and when you open it - up pops a small candy bar. I found this project on You Tube and made a few changes that I liked better.

The Halloween Pop Up Class will be on Mon. Sept. 26 at 6:00pm at All About Pictures. Call 364-4141 to register for class. Hope to see you there.

Halloween Pop-Up Card Class

On September 26, 2011, beginning at 6pm, I will be teaching you how to make two Halloween pop-up greeting cards, using two of the pop up die cuts that I learned to use when I took the recent classes from Karen Burniston, who designed the pop ups for Sizzix. The dies are SO FUN and SO EASY to use. (If you get a chance to take a class from Karen, go for it, because she's a great teacher and lots of fun).

In addition to the two greeting cards, we'll make a third Halloween surprise item in class.

Besides Karen's pop up dies, I used dies for the cat, the pumpkins, the bat, Frankinstein, and both of the labels.

I'll be using Karen's snowflake die cut in October and in November we'll make a take-off on a card/photo album Christmas present that Karen designed. In December I'll be using die cuts for a Christmas gift tag class.

The classes I teach are at All About Pictures in Cedar Rapids IA. Pre-register for classes by calling 364-4141.
