Among all the paper cutters, stamps, glue, and flower decals in Porters on Thursday night myself and my two faithful crafter friends emerged ourselves into the card making world. Due to no cash in our wallets we showed up twenty minutes late but the staff was very accommodating and quick to help gather up some more kits for us.
While we waited we meandered around Porters looking for inspiration for our next project and there are a few potentials in the works. Once the staff had set up another table for us we got to work! All three of us were card making virgins so we entered the unknown territory together. The confidence within ourselves was undoubting as we began cutting and gluing our first masterpieces.
We made four different cards that turned out adorable. They look complex but they were simple enough to make that even the anti-crafter could handle it. The workshop was only $5.00.For a poor student it was a night full of affordable entertainment. Make sure you plan to bring cash though. Each card worked out to be $1.25 to make. I don't think you can even buy a decent card for that price anymore.
A tip for anyone interested in going; sign up with them before the night of the workshop so they have a kit all ready for you. It will save them time and yourself.
