“Extra Credit” All-Day Pocket Letters™ Workshop w/ Janette Lane & Rachel McGough

Hi All! 

I’m so excited to announce our first ever Handmade U “Extra Credit” One Day workshop!  WE HAVE POSTPONED THE DATE OF THIS EVENT.  IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PLEASE EMAIL ME!

I know many of you haven’t been able to attend a full retreat due to timing, not being able to get away for a full weekend, or frankly because the cost may be more than you can afford at the time.  I also know many of you wish you could get on over and create in the Red Barn with us, so this is YOUR OPPORTUNITY to come share a bit of the country with us!  

Our first Extra Credit will be a day of Pocket Letters™ making!  It is the wildly popular (and WARNING – addictive) craze hitting FB and IG.  

Janette Lane, the creator of Pocket Letters™ will be coming out to the Red Barn to share with us how she created this fun project and some fun techniques to complete your own full Pocket Letter.  

Using handy baseball card page protector you will create wonderful pieces of art, and fill with fun planner, scrapbook, card-making, etc. supplies and other treats for your Pocket Letter PAL (or for yourself!)!  

I will be sharing some fun techniques as well to add some extra fun to a few of your pockets as well!  It will be a fun day of creating with new friends!
