Description

There is no better time to get crafty than these cold winter months. Here is a chance to craft your very own Christmas and holiday cards! You’ll create your own cards with a Nordic motif instructed by Portland-based artist Annelie Thurin.

You will learn you how to hand-cut images and attach them to multiple greeting cards or small boards that can be framed. Send your card to your friend, your loved ones, or keep for yourself.

Paper cutting is for everyone! All levels of skill and knowledge of welcome.

All material will be included.
