Hello .  It’s been a whirlwind of creativity in my craft room this past week, and I can’t wait to fill you in on all the excitement! From stacks of cardstock to shimmering embellishments, new designs have been flying off my desk—and there's plenty more magic to come. I'm gearing up for some fabulous live stamping demonstrations featuring brand new goodies from the just-launched Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue and the latest Online Exclusives. You're going to love the
fresh inspiration these products bring, and I can't wait to show you how to make the most of them in your own creations. Now, here’s a little behind-the-scenes news—I'm packing my bags and heading to sunny Orlando, Florida for the Stampin’ Up! incentive trip (required disclaimer: less than 1% of Demonstrators earn the trip). I’m so grateful and excited for this opportunity! While I’m away, things will be quiet in my craft room, and newsletters will take a short pause.
But not to worry—I'll be back on May 20th, recharged and ready to dive back into crafting with you, bringing even more creative fun, fresh ideas, and joyful connection your way. Until then, keep those scissors snipping and the ink flowing—I’ll see you soon!  Now on to all the exciting happenings In My Craft Room.
MY CLASSES AND EVENTS Registration Information
CLASSES IN JUNE!  Pretty Florals Class and Monthly Tutorial Subscription Also, the Monthly Club Cards  Say hello to this month’s gorgeous new class—Pretty Florals! This class is all about fresh, elegant designs and creative inspiration, and I’ve made it easy for you to join the fun whether you're local or crafting from afar. We’ll be making three beautiful cards together, with the option to join me in person on Saturday, June 28 at 1 PM Pacific or virtually on
Thursday, June 5 at 6:30 PM Pacific. The card kit is just $20 and includes everything you need to create, including some die cuts to make it even easier. Want some Creative Inspiration but don't want to buy another floral bundle? The good news is that you DON'T need this bundle to do the cards! Â Want to bundle it all up? The Pretty Florals Bundle Plus option is $85 and includes the full
bundle, with the card kits included absolutely free. If you’re outside Canada, no worries—you can grab the Tutorial Only option and even join us for the virtual class. Or subscribe to my monthly tutorial subscription for just $15 a month (minimum three months) and receive an exclusive bonus tutorial each month.  Click either graphic below to register before May 15th.  Club members will be making these cards too, and I’ve got a fun bonus project coming your way as well.

Magic Marquee Avid Fun Fold Class  If you love a challenge and can’t resist a clever fun fold, then the Magic Marquee Avid Fun Fold class is calling your name! This class is designed for those who enjoy taking their card making to the next level—definitely not a
beginner project, but oh-so-rewarding.  You’ll receive a pre-cut kit with the basic pieces ready to go, and together we’ll score, cut, and fold our way to creating a truly magical card. The class includes a printed PDF template and full instructions to help you recreate this design again and again.  You can join me in person on Sunday, June 29 at 1 PM, or virtually on
Thursday, June 26 at 6:30 PM Pacific. The full kit with the template and a finished card is $15, or you can opt for the tutorial only for $10 if you prefer to prep your own materials.  And this card can be done with any stamp set and dies you have at home!  This is one of those cards that will wow anyone who receives it, and once you learn how it’s done, you’ll be
hooked! Â Click either graphic below to register before May 15th. Â
