It's Class time again!

 A couple of months ago a taught my lace journal class to an awesome bunch of women.
(Aren't they  pretty???)

We had so much fun and they were so so encouraging that they convinced to teach some more classes here at my home in Scottsdale Az.

Back in  2010 (has been that long ago already?) I was so thrilled to have my first piece published in the Sept/Oct issue of Somerset Studio.

The girls all saw the piece and suggested that I teach a class for it, and so....
I am!!

The class will be held on Sept. 22 right here in my home again. I have already had several women sign up (thank you) but wanted to open it up to anyone else who would like to come.
The class will probably take all day and I will serve lunch. The fee for the class is $75.00
and you will need a basic crafting tool kit plus a few other things that you probably already have.

Please email me at karenvalentinedesignstudio@gmail.com if you are interested in taking the class and I will send you all the info.

Oh to have been there my friend. I love gatherings like this. I used to teach painting classes in my home years ago and got very attached to 'my' ladies.
Having you as a teacher would be a dream come true!!!! Those lucky (and pretty) girls : )

Karen, I always get tickled when I open up a magazine and see you have an article in it showing your creativity! Yup.. that's me, just about to grab the poor person standing next to me in magazine section... "I know her.. she's a friend of mine!!" Your classes sound like so much fun and I know the ladies have a fabulous day with you, learning lots!

Wish I could be a "Witchy Woman"... Well, really I already am... Hee Hee looks like a lot of fun. I see Sherry B & Earleen in that photo that I know... I know everyone will have fun. HUGS!

I wish I lived closer, I'd come Karen. My Stampin' Up demonstrator is going to do a small book in a similar fashion.
Have fun with your class.

Man I wish I lived closer because this would be a dream come true for me. Not only to take a class with you, but to meet you in person and see your beautiful home, that would be heaven!

Whoever is able to come is very lucky and I hope they know there are lots of us who are jealous!

Have a wonderful class dear Karen and thanks for inspiring us here everyday!

Oh to live closer!!! I can see I will have to download the Somerset Studio Magazine. Have you ever thought of 'teaching' an online class? Via YouTube or some such thing? Now that would be fab for people in far flung places

Hi Karen, This is my first visit to your site, it is so beautiful! I came across you through Cottage Dreams and that was my first visit there too! I am currently on a break from my site, as we are just getting moved into a new home (not as young as I used to be) and a new craft room studio to create...although it is great fun, it is also great work. I hope that you will visit my little site and I hope to visit you regularly!
Crafty Hugs,
Pendra

Hi Karen~
Sandie sent me over to your lovely blog. I am her new friend and swap partner at Handmade U. I can't wait to meet this delightful lady! We are just going to have a wonderful time & I will take her under my wing & lavish her with her 'red' and trust it will be 'red' and very vintage loveliness. Her box is just to die for. I might not show up....just so I can keep it myself!! I was terrified I didn't have anything red in my studio....and then just went to town....my 15 year old son had a ball with me tearing up the place! I'm a new follower and can't wait to visit more often.
XO~Hope

Hi Karen
What a beautiful collage you had published in Somerset Studio!
It is brilliant and so well arranged!
What an amazing response you have had from women wanting to join in the class.
You could teach this one over and over!!
Beautiful work indeed!
