A Very Vecchi Christmas

Join Lauren for a bright and cheerful class that features nearly EVERY stamp in Wendy Vecchi’s Doodle Christmas and Doodle Holiday stamp sets! We’ll do a little coloring, a little fussy-cutting, a little embossing and yes, we’ll even get out the big box of washi tape! Please bring your basic kit, your favorite scissors and some holiday spirit! Dates available: Monday, November 28th, 11am-2pm; Sunday, December 4th, 11am-2pm; Thursday, December 8th, 6-9pm. Cost is $24. Please email elisabeth@paperanthology.com to reserve your spot.

(PS: These cards could easily be changed from full-on Christmas to un-specified Winter Holiday by swapping sentiments and choosing different tapes, which you are welcome to do!)
