Dinner & A Card Class 2012


The Mercantile is excited to host the
3rd Annual
Dinner & A Card Class
Featuring
Sarah from The Paper Cut
And
Images and Dies from Impression Obsession

Spend the evening with Sarah, enjoy dinner and create 7 fabulous cards.

Use Impression Obsession background stamps in layers to create beautifully complex patterns quickly and easily on paper from The Paper Cut.   Add to that some of their new dies and you have a quick and easy card.

Papers and cards from The Paper Cut will include their holographic paper, window cards and overlays, scallop cards and more.

You will be amazed at how versatile the stamps are when used in combination with each other.  Your background paper will compliment your stamped/cut images perfectly!  No more trying to find patterned paper to ‘go’ with your projects, you can make it yourself.

Terri & Cindy from The Mercantile have again reserved the party room for this fun class and arranged for dinner at New York Pizza.

Sarah will be bringing a trunk show of the items used as well.

Class price includes all materials, one background stamp, dinner (pizza bar, salad bar & drink) and an evening filled with fun & creativity.
