Artful Journal with Kelly Kilmer: Sunday, December 11, 12:15 PM - 4:15 PM. Spend the afternoon assembling a book from scratch. You'll begin your art adventure today by learning how to make the funkiest book around using gorgeous, luscious papers & a neat little stitch (easy to do & fun to learn!). Afterwards, you'll embellish the pages with various mixed media techniques. Kelly will dig deep into her mixed media arsenal of supplies, showing you the coolest new techniques around (along with a few favorites that she's tweaked just for this class!) Learn different ways to paint, play & express yourself artistically on the page. You'll spend hours engrossed in multiple new mixed media techniques designed to push & expand your creative prowess. This is unlike ANY class you have ever taken. You may get messy but you'll learn a lot of techniques & have lots of fun! As always, Kelly will be bringing an array of professional artist acrylics & mediums, rubber stamps, collage ephemera, & all necessary materials to create the journal!

Ready, Aim, Fire (The Heat Gun) with Ginny: Wednesday, December 14, 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM. One of the most frequent questions we get is "how do you make the stuff rise up?"
