Every month on a Friday (usually the third) I hold a 2/5/15 class.
It's called that because you make 2 each of 5 different cards... for only $15!
They are meant to be simple cards-so simple that even a beginner stamper can do them. I am getting better (finally) at making really simple cards, so it takes only about 1 1/2 hours to complete this class. (although Lois and Donna finished today in 55 minutes! Yowie Zowie!)
Sometimes there will be a theme to the class. In the past I have done themes such as: masculine, brides and babies, Christmas, and kids' cards.
Other times I try to focus on seasonal offerings: Sale-a-Bration, mini-catalogs, spring/Easter, etc., with no given theme. This is one of those times!
Let's take a closer look at each of these very simple cards... All ideas came from Pinterest, but only one is a direct copy!

Hope to see you at next month's class!
