Please Note: Now that we are starting classes again, there will be new procedures. Of course, we will be wearing masks, adhere to social distancing and also will limit class size to 4. Because there can be no sharing of supplies each student will need to have their own regular class kits, including a personal trimmer, Scor Board, scissors, Glitter Gel Pen, bone folder, various dry and liquid adhesives, including pop dots and glue dots, plus scrap paper or your own personal craft mat.

Purchase your kit at class sign-up as there are different colors of flakes. Bring your regular class kit which includes a personal trimmer, craft mat and baby wipes. ALSO, please bring an empty plastic container (easier to put your flakes back into than the jar), a clear Versamark or embossing pad, ultra fine glitter (any color to compliment your flakes), small craft sponge or sponge dauber, a stencil of your own (leaves, butterflies, or background designs work well) and a couple of your own rubber stamps (not acrylic) of any designs you would like to see gilded.
