2026 Summer Class Schedule

I currently offer two types of card making classes. Kit Classes and what I'm starting to call Carousel Card Classes.

 In a Kit Class, you and other crafty friends, choose a kit from the Stampin' Up! kit collection. You can order one from me online eight to ten days in advance, or you can choose one from my stash when you arrive at Planet Perk in downtown Oshkosh.  I usually have ten to fifteen kits to choose from. Kits contain everything you need to assemble eight to twelve cards. Together, we handcraft our kits. I provide guidance, alternate sentiment stamps, and extra tools. I can even give you a short video link of the cards being assembled! We laugh, chat, and get to know each other. Planet Perk has a delightful selection of coffee and bakery you can purchase on your way in. 

A Carousel Card Class gives you the opportunity to make fancier cards. This is when you can learn new techniques, try out tools, and create with beautiful supplies you may not have. These cards are designed by me and other talented Stampin' Up! demonstrators. 

Kit Class Schedule

We'll be creating and connecting on the last Wednesday of the month from 9:30 - 11:30 at Planet Perk. If you can make it, email me at marygoroundcards@gmail.com, message me on Face Book or give me a call. The cost is $30.00 for one kit, $25 each for two kits, $20 per kit for three or more kits. Upcoming classes are:

• Take the Basic White Cardstock layer and stamp the texture image down the right-hand side using various strengths of ink. Do this by not always reinking the stamp before restamping. This is called stamping off.
• Center the DSP on the front of the card and adhere.
• Die cut the leaf image from the white layer and adhere it to the card front.
• Die cut the large leaf from Balmy Blue Cardstock. Trim the leaves from the left-hand side. Adhere to the card front with the larger part pointing upwards.
• Take the wood bark die and cut from Crumb Cake Cardstock. Lightly blend on some Crumb Cake Ink.
• Add Stampin' Dimensionals to the back of the wood bark die cut. Take a short length of the Secret Sea ribbon and fold it to form loops. Adhere it to the Dimensionals on the back of the die cut, then adhere the die cut to the card front.
• Use the smallest leaf die to cut two sets from Night of Navy Cardstock. Adhere behind the wood bark element.
• Take the leaves you removed from the Balmy Blue die cut earlier and add part of those behind the wood bark element as well.

• Add the wood bark die cut over the top of the leaves using Stampin' Dimensionals.
