Going Beyond the Flowers Layout Workshop $50.00

Prima is definitely known for its lovely florals but this class is going to go beyond that and dabble in the unexpected! While at the Prima warehouse, I was able to grab a bunch of goodies and fill this class kit with some yummy bits from the Mommy and Me collection along with a mix of this and a sprinkle of that from other Prima lines. Sure, we will still use a few flowers and bling but then we will jump outside of the box and create interesting embellishments using cardboard and chipboard with paint, foil, glitter and stamps. Oh! And how about a few fun uses for Glitter Mists! We will be focusing on all new techniques with really fun outcomes!! I can’t wait to share some of the art inspired ideas I have been working on! This class is sure to bring the inner artist out in all who attend!
