Creative Play - September 2023

 

I am so excited for this event. It combines two of my absolute favorites, Creativity and Bunco.

September 24, 2023, 1:30pm

we will be meeting at

TBT Real Estate, Lake Jackson, TX

We will be creating cards in-between rounds of Bunco. If you don't know how to either one or both, we'll teach you. Both are easy and fun!

Not everyone will make the same project, it all depends on which table you land at the end of a round. The price covers the cost of the projects, not to play, the game is just something we do to add to the fun!

Here is one of the projects that will be offered that afternoon.

Birthday Cards at Duckie & the Grackle Gallery

I recently hosted a Birthday Card Class at the Duckie & the Grackle Gallery, where we created unique and personalized birthday cards that are sure to put a smile on anyone's face.

After three years of hosting events in my studio or on my patio, it was exciting to step "out in the wild" and host an event at the Duckie & the Grackle Gallery. The gallery's artistic ambiance provided the perfect setting to inspire our creativity and let our imaginations run wild.

Three lovely people attended the event and had a blast designing their own birthday cards. We used a variety of materials, to create cards that reflected each person's unique style and personality. The result? Beautiful, one-of-a-kind cards that will be cherished by their recipients.

But this is just the beginning! I'm already planning my next crafty event, and you won't want to miss it. Check out my Facebook page, Marion Creates, to stay up-to-date on the latest events and workshops. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just starting, you'll find something to inspire your creativity.

The Birthday Card Class at the Duckie & the Grackle Gallery was a fantastic experience that brought people together, sparked our imaginations, and resulted in beautiful creations. Join us at the next event and let your creativity soar!

Diane made these cards

Coming soon!

I am so excited to be currently working with several restaurants and a retail space to bring classes to you. 

These classes will feature current and past kits from Stampin' Up!

Kits, Kits & More Kits....

 Do you ever just want to be crafty but don't know where to start. Maybe you're just starting out, or maybe you're just too tired to think about a new idea to create.

Kits are an easy way to be crafty with a variety of projects, styles & designs to choose from. Each kit offers simple steps, and beautiful designs.

You will have exactly what you need in the right amount with very little left over. So you don't have to worry about storing a lot of extra supplies.

You can choose kits that include stamp sets, or no stamping at all. All pieces are die cut and ready for stamping or assembly. The most you might need are scissors and a clear block.

And if you feel extra creative you can change the intended design of the kit and create different projects.
