Big Thanks to everyone who took the first Winter Bliss class at Impress. If you weren't able to get into that class - we have another class on Saturday December 13th. We'll make 6 un-holiday cards - fresh colors, glitter, sequins and watercolor background techniques. See you there!

Thanks for visiting - join us again tomorrow for one of Marnie's special designs.
