Simply Adorned Class

Simply Adorned Charms are like Lockets- They open up so you can insert your custom Stamped images.  The Frame Surrounds tempered beveled glass on the front and flat glass on the back.  There’s Glass on both sides of the charm, so you can display and image on one side or both.  You can create a custom heirloom piece that you’ll never want to change, or you can swap artwork or photos in and out, depending on your mood and your wardrobe!
I am having a Simply Adorned Class on Saturday May 7th (just in time for Mother’s Day) 10am at my home/Studio.
 This class will include the 1 x 1 ¼ Charm and 5 inserts that you will make and take with you the day of the class.   This Class is $25 and includes all materials including your Simply Adorned Charm. If you’d like to add the 24” Chain add $12.00 to the $25.
This is a product-based class so to hold your spot and to order the charms your Check or Credit Card will hold your spot.

bunny ears multiplying 
 Ahhh!  He is so cute!  That is what I said when I first saw him.  Earlene Flint brought this share to our demo meeting this past month and so I decided to do him for camp!    She found it on the Stampin' Connection ( a site just for demo's) and made it her own and this is my version.  How cool it is to have all these resources.
He would also be cute with a pencil instead of a pixie stick!
