Punch Bunch Card Class on June 13th from 2pm - 4pm for $20.

Cricut, Expression & Design Studio

Last month we had our first class on the Cricut Design Studio. As promised our instructor, Susie, delivered a great class. Our big screen TV was hooked up to her laptop and everyone followed along with her on the TV, on their laptops or on the store's desktop computer. Her handouts were a worth the price and then some. I was unable to attend her class because I was helping customers in the store. HOWEVER, with just her screen prints and handouts I was welding in no time! I was not a cricut lover because of the time and uncertainity of cuts and size, etc. Now I can't get enough. I want to design all day long. I am SOOO looking forward to herAdvanced class - word book here I come. Especially with the deep cut blade (you don't need the entire housing - just the blades) and cutting chipboard is possible.
Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of the class but it was a full house and lots of fun. We may have to create our own Cricut Swarm here!
Here is a picture of the projects you will make in the Cricut & Expression Basic Class. That class is Saturday, June 6th at 10 AM for $15.

Our other Cricut Classes are Design Studio Basic, Saturday, June 6th at 2 PM $20. Design Studio Advanced, Saturday, June 6th at 5:30 PM $20. * Take all three classes for $45. --Then stay and play with all the new techniques you learned!

We have had a ton of requests for classes on the Design Studio by Cricut so here it comes ladies! May 5th at 6pm - 7:30 pm (or until we get through) bring your laptop loaded with software, and your Cricut! Susie who is a member of a Cricut Swarm will bring you up to speed on the software with handouts, screen prints and a final project! This is a class you won't want to miss. We hope to create a series as we master the basics and get into the advanced. For those of you who have not even pulled your Cricut out of the box, don't worry a Cricut class is in the works as well.
