Do You Enjoy Crafting With Others?

By | 10 October 2023

Do you enjoy crafting with others? Do you live in Auckland? Did you know that I offer a variety of card making classes? Why not come along to one of my classes and have fun making cards with others?

I teach several different classes. Each month, I hold some Technique & Fun Fold Classes and some Coffee & Cards classes. Three times a year, I also offer Extravaganza, which is a larger event and involves other demonstrators. Perhaps you can’t come to a class. Keep reading as I will share some online options too.

Technique & Fun Fold Class:
For this class, I teach card making techniques like heat embossing, creating backgrounds with vellum and Blends, masking etc, and the class usually includes a fun fold card. Some examples of some fun folds cards are bridge fold card, double z fold card, stepper card etc. During the class, we use tools like the heat tool, Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, punches etc.

Two cards are taught at the class using a variety of Stampin’ Up! products. As well as this, I share tips and ideas to help you with your card making. This class is good for those who are keen to learn a little more than just basic stamping. I will be there to help you each step of the way, so people of all abilities are welcome.

As well as making two wonderful cards, I include a tutorial sheet, with the measurements and step-by-step instructions and photos, so you can recreate the cards at home if you wish. The cost of the class is $25. For this class, please bring your own basic kit (adhesive and scissors etc). This is a monthly class held at my home in Albany, Auckland.

Coffee & Cards at Vero Café:
On the first Tuesday and Thursday of the month, I offer a Coffee & Cards class at the Vero Café in Unsworth Heights on the North Shore. This is great for those starting out or those wanting to get together with others and learn some new ideas for some simple cards. The class is one hour long and we make two cards. You will get to use a variety of wonderful Stampin’ Up! stamp sets, punches, and other products. The cost is $20 and includes a regular hot drink.

I offer two sessions on a Tuesday, 9:30-10:30am and 10:40-11:40am. On the Thursday, there is just one session, 9:30-10:30am.

Coffee & Cards Tuesday Dates:
7th November, 5th December

Coffee & Cards Thursday Dates:
2nd November, 7th December

Please contact me by 12pm the day before to let me know if you would like to come to one of the classes.

Please note – there is no class in early January as the café is closed for the Christmas/New Year break.

Auckland Extravaganza:
The Auckland Extravaganza event is held three times a year. It is a whole afternoon of crafting. It is like my technique and fun fold class but, instead of two cards, you make five! There are also displays, door prizes, afternoon tea and more! You receive written instructions with measurements of the five projects so you can also recreate them at home.

Our next event is coming up on Saturday 4th November and will be Christmas themed. It will be held at Northcote Baptist Church.
