Come join me for a Studio Calico card class! (+ GIVEAWAY)

Hi all! I am super excited to be leading a card class over at Studio Calico for March: You’ve Got Mail! Cards for Every Occasion.

got-mail-600

So many fantastic cardmarkers will be joining me for the class — just look at this amazing lineup!

YGM-CONTRIBUTORS-600

And that’s not all! While supplies last, students will receive a 4×6 inch clear stamp set – the stamps will ship free to you, no matter where you are.  Check it out:

stamp-set-free

We worked really hard to make the stamp super versatile! The messages work together in so many ways, and you can mount them on a block and stamp them all at once — OR — stamp them seperately in different colors. I seriously love this set. (Especially the cake! And the streamers! And the envelope. Well, guess I love it ALL. :)

Here’s the course syllabus:

March 1st : Lisa Spangler’s tips & tricks.
mailing bulky cards, shaped cards, one layer cards, getting organized/storage

Week 1 – March 4th : Birthday (kids, masculine/feminine, invites)

Week 2 – March 11th : Everyday Greeting (just a note, hello, get well soon, thinking of you)

Week 3 – March 18th : Special Occasions (anniversary, weddings, babies, congrats)

Week 4 – March 25th : Beyond the Card (envelopes, tags, gift card holders)

And that’s not all! Students will also receive printable accents and labels from Hello Forever, a digital brush set of the class stamps, and window card, tag and accent cuts from Kinsey Wilson. These will be available in the classroom on March 1st. Here’s a preview of what to expect (this file is lo-res and won’t print well — you’ll get a hi-res copy in class):

Sign ups for class have started right HERE – and trust me, you’ll want to sign up quick so that you can receive that FREE stamp set! Registration is open until Feb 28. And, you’ll have forever access to the class even after it’s ended! Can’t beat that.

And just to do a little enabling, here are some supplies that we’ll be using in class:


Hope to see you there!

Aaaannnnd!!!! I get to giveaway a spot in the class and the (while supplies last) stamp set! WOO! Just leave a comment here by February 7th and I’ll announce the lucky random winner on the 8th! If you like, include a bit about the last card that you made in your comment — I’d love to hear about what you’ve been up to! If you win and you’ve already registered, you’ll receive a refund — or you can pass your winning spot on to a friend. :)

Edited to add: the winner is #36 Marilyn Bronson! Yay! Marilyn, I emailed you. Thanks all! Really loved reading all of your comments. :)

  • so excited for the class,Lisa! just signed up! and now…ready counting the day,Ha!

  • Class sounds fabulous. I like to make cards, four at a time and then leave the sentiment area blank so it can become what I need at the time – birthday, thank you, etc. I’ll be doing a couple batches this weekend from ideas I’ve seen on different blogs. Thanks for the chance to win a spot in this awesome class.

  • The class looks great – I would love to win a spot!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  • Hi Lisa, just peek my email and first thing that caught my attention is wooow Lisa will be having a class.. i don’t want to miss it.. just sign up n see you in your class.. i know it’ll be an awesome one. :)

  • Would LOVE to win a spot in the class! The last card that I made was actually today during craft time with my kiddos…I made 3 flowers (3d) from a scallop punch and then for the stems I used green chevron washi tape. I stamped LOVE on the side and created a small heart by stamping 2 fingerprints. Turned out SO CUTE and I had a great time crafting with my kiddos :)

  • lisa, this class looks great! I would love a chance to take it! I have to get back on track with my card making/snail mailing!

  • Thanks for a chance to participate in this class.

    My last card? 500 wedding announcements. Seriously. A student where I work is getting married and wanted to make her own cards. She liked the look of bird stamps embossed on Kraft card stock. Nine of her friends gathered and I taught them embossing techniques. In the end we embossed 3,000 pieces of paper and went through six jars of powder. I didn’t know that was even possible. She has beautiful invitations which is fitting as she is beautiful inside and out.

  • I had to sign up as soon as I saw you were the teacher :) [even though I'm not even going to be around - crafting wise - in March]

  • this sounds like a super fun class and is run by you. hummm… i think i’ll sign up!! =)

  • What a great giveaway! I’d love to join this class! The last card I made was using gradient stamping for an ombre effect – so much fun!! Thanks for the chance to win … :)

  • Sounds like just the class I need! The last card I made took me 3 days. Seriously. I added and took away. Moved paper around. Tried ribbon. Nothing seemed to work. Then, I went online, found a card I really liked and mostly lifted it. I still wasn’t crazy about mine, but off it went into the mail. HELP!

  • It would be great to win a spot in this class.

  • I would love to win. This class sounds amazing!

  • I struggle with cards but I did make four last week. Two birthdays, one new baby and a new home. Great giveaway.

  • So many great designers together! the stamps look awesome! what can go wrong with this? lol You rock Lisa thanks so much for the giveaway! I have my fingers crossed for this :)

  • So excited for this class – what an awesome list of contributors! I have to admit most of the cards I’ve been making recently are mostly patterned paper & embellishments, with almost no stamping! I really need to get back to my sorely neglected stamps. I did have fun over the weekend making some cards with goodies from the Dear Lizzy 5th & Frolic collection – such pretty papers & lots of fun die cut shapes.
    Thanks for the chance to win :-)
