Workshop Description: Hand lettering in everywhere right now. It's in planners, on cards, in logos, on posters, and pretty much anywhere else that you can place lettering. It looks amazing and is a skill that can be used in so many different ways. The best part about hand lettering is that, once you know the techniques and letterforms, anyone can do it! Learn from Amanda Arneill, designer for Silhouette America, contributor to Tombow Design Blog and owner of Say It Pretty Designs, just how easy it is to take your lettering from illegible to amazing! This three hour workshop will take you through the basics of using a brush pen to mastering a gorgeous print alphabet and an impressive script alphabet. You will receive a comprehensive workshop booklet, a Tombow Fudenosuke Hard Nib Brush Pen and tracing paper. When you leave this class, you will be ready to fill you planner, scrapbooks, cards and so much more with beautiful hand lettered designs. Special Guest Instructor - Amanda Arneill

Seize the day and join Amy this month to make two, unique double-paged layouts.   The first, inspired by a Finnabair demo video, combines papers from Bo Bunny’s new Beach Therapy collection, with multi-media techniques. Using matte medium, Dylusions sprays, inks, die cuts, seed beads, burlap and cheesecloth, we will create a lovely seaside layout for your photos taken at the shore.   Our second layout this month will inspire you to get out there and take photos that capture you and your loved ones seizing the day! We will use papers from Simple Stories’ Carpe Diem collection to create a colourful, fun layout suitable for documenting day-to-day life, a single special event or a series of action shots…Carpe Diem indeed!
