Cards, Cards… Cards! (The Remix!)
Details
Bring us your tired punches, your poor neglected cut‑outs, your huddled scraps yearning to be art.
No, we're not talking about the Statue of liberty....
Our “Cards, cards, cards!” exchange is getting a joyful reboot! This time we’re not just swapping cards… we’re making them. This session kicks off a monthly series running through the end of the year, each with its own theme and inspirations. Some will have a fee associated with it, but this one is FREE!
This Month: Hole Punch Magic
We’ll explore the surprisingly delightful world of crafting hole punches — from simple circles to fancy shapes — and how they can transform even the most “meh” papers into charming card elements.
What to Bring
- Crafting hole punches (all shapes welcome)
- Cricut cut‑outs you haven’t used
- “Almost-good” gelli prints (I know you save them!)
- Boring cardstock that needs a glow‑up
- Stray envelopes you don’t know what to do with
- Any small embellishments you’re willing to share
What We'll Do
- Try out each other’s hole punches
- Make patterns, borders, textures, and layered shapes
- Turn “almost-good” papers into delightful card components
- Share ideas, inspiration, and plenty of laughter
Upcoming Monthly Themes
(Subject to Change, so be sure to check back! Currently planned to be held after the Monthly Meeting, possibly alongside another class)
- September: TBD
- October: Spooky & Sweet — Halloween cards with playful, eerie, or whimsical flair
- November: Featuring Stephanie Hanson! — our long‑standing cardmaking talent will lead a Thanksgiving‑themed session
- December: Winter Wonders — holiday cards, seasonal sparkle, and cozy creative cheer
This Saturday’s session is relaxed, hands‑on, and resource‑sharing — fun, playful, and wonderfully unusual. Whether you’re a seasoned card maker or just curious, you’ll leave with new tricks, new textures, and at least one card that makes you grin.
Let’s punch some holes, make some magic, and relaunch Cards, Cards… Cards! in true TACG style.
