Here is a peek of the 3 cards that I (Cindy) will be teaching in the next Flower Soft class on Saturday, April 24th from 1-3. The best part about this class is that the stamp set we are using for the main image (sentiments not included) is included in the class fee!! How exciting is that! The stamps are made by Flower Soft and include the wheelbarrow plus 3 other images. We will make 3 cards as well as mount and trim your new stamps as the stamp sheet is rubber only. Space is limited and is filling up quickly so call the store as soon as possible to join me for this fun class.

Here is the last card.
