Here are the latest Art 'n Soul class listings . . .
We request that each student bring a BASIC CLASS KIT to each class. This should include at least a pencil, an eraser, a bone folder, scissors, ruler, double stick tape of choice, a craft knife, and a glue stick. If a student has a small portable paper trimmer, that can also be helpful. Some students also bring a Japanese hole punch and a cutting mat.
Staff members are willing to teach a “ Basics” class at almost any time, for a minimum of 3 people, so if you have a small group that is interested in learning about various inks and other elements of basic stamping, just give the store a call.

Calling all fans of Pan Pastels! Marj has new ideas for this wonderful art medium, and new samples, so sign up early for this informative and creative class. Many of you have purchased some Pastels , so here’s a chance to learn Marj’s creative techniques. We’ll make several cards and/or card tops, and a nifty embellishment or two. You will be able to have hands on experience and to actually see all the available Pan Pastel colors in person. Both new and returning Pan Pastel students are welcome.

We’ll add ribbons and other embellishments to finish off these amazing cards. Please bring an ample supply of foam tape, an ample supply of good quality glue stick, your basic kit, and a Cuttlebug (and mats) if you have one and can bring it.
