CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

 

 

Beginning Stamping - you will learn about papers, inks, thermal embossing, and some important tools you’ll want in your stamping kit.

You will make a card and go home with a hand-out of information that you learned in class

 

Beyond the Basics - prepares you for most other stamping classes.  You will learn all about the VIP stamp positioner, masking, sponging, how to use your Xacto knife, and you will make a simple pop-up card.

 

Marker Magic - you will use Staedtler Water color markers straight from the pen, as a watercolor, and with a Dove Blender.  We will finish this class with instructions on the Studio 2 Alcohol markers.

 

Colored Pencils - this 2 part class introduces you to both wax and watercolor pencils, card development, and shading.  You will practice

the techniques and take home a detailed hand-out.

Gabi’s Girlz - Shrink art pins with fun, flair and lots of personality!

 

Stylin’ with a Stylus - free form background preparation for card making and collage.

 

Flower Power - a fresh approach to Spring - mixed media and more!

 

Eight is Enough - in this fast-paced class we will complete eight cards that look great but take little time to complete.  Good for any occasion, this class will put you ahead of the “Yikes I need a card NOW crunch”.

 

Illuminating Ideas - using stamping and other techniques, create a lovely decorator lamp shade for your home.  There will be numerous samples to view during class. 

 

Versatile Vellum - new visions of vellum that will inspire you to continue exploring the uses of this extraordinary paper.

 

Boundless Bollio - create beautiful cards using the newest tool to hit the stamping world.  Whether crafting sophisticated greetings or whipping out a card in a crisis, these are the greatest!

 

All That Glitters - In this class we will play with many of the fun US Art Quest supplies such as Gildenglitz, Pearl Ex, and Perfect fx to create cards with a definite artistic flair.

 

Tag Book - Tag art is very popular right now.  We will not only create some lovely examples, but will make a portfolio to keep them in as well.  This is a fun class in which you can really stretch your creativity.

 

Tagged Journal - in this class you will stamp and construct a beautiful journal using tags and beads.  You will also make coordinating paper beads to embellish the book.

 

Color Me Surprised! - Dazzle your friends with this mystery card.  It is fun to make and people of all ages love to receive it.

 

Grandmother’s Garden Journal - this small hard-covered book, has a garden-themed collage on the cover.  The four signatures are sewn through the binding and exposed stitching is embellished with an assortment of beads.

 

Skewer Books - make two soft-cover skewer books - one single and one double signature.  Lazer printed paste papers are stamped for a quick and easy collage-look cover decoration.  A quick book with character - you’ll love it!

 

Papermaking - a full day of learning the pour method of papermaking.  Techniques include a basic sheet, pulp painting, inclusions, embossing and laminating – and you will be given written ideas on how to use what you make.

 

Gildenglitz Girl - Gildenglitz, Lumiere paint and much more give this special “girl-shaped” book a sparkling personality!

 

Asian Tag Book - this single signature, tag-shaped book has a wrap around cover and is embellished with Asian-themed stamps, punches, sealing wax, beads and charms.  Explore a new “tag” option for the upcoming convention!

 

Glazed Metallics - this easy elegant technique is the latest idea for your Encore pigment pads.  In this class we will be using the new Illuminated Manuscript Stamps, dye inks and tag embellishments to create a glazed metal finish.  So quick and simple you’ll finish at least two cards in class.

 

Katie’s Closet is a complete, full service rubber stamp and accessory store.

 

Our 2000 square feet of shop space is packed with the finest rubber stamps and related goodies available anywhere.  Our assortment of stamps is considered one of the very best in the southwest.  The accessories we carry are artist quality and 100% guaranteed.  The artwork you can do with our stamps and supplies will surprise and amaze you.

 

Katie’s Closet is a year round business catering to everyone who loves art stamps and paper art.  We are open every week of the year from 10AM to 6PM, with the following exceptions: we are open until 9PM on Thursdays, close at 5PM on Saturday (unless you call with a stamping emergency, then we will wait for you) and are not open on Sunday at all.

 

Classes are offered on a continuing basis in basic stamping techniques and card making, advanced techniques, book making and loads of other interesting subjects.  Twice a week we offer a $2.00 Make and Take class.  The subject matter is different every week and the projects are fun.  The Make and Take is offered on Wednesdays from 9AM to 2:30PM and on Thursday evenings from 5:30PM to 8:30PM.  The class is conducted “Open House Style” so you can just come by when it is convenient for you.   Our calendar and class description information are available on our web site katiescloset.com.  Visit us.  The site is still under construction, so give us just a little time.

 

We are quite new at this whole “internet thing” being comfortable with calligraphy and the beautiful art of hand made stationery, but we are ready to jump into the computer age.  Be patient with us and know that we are happy to answer any question you have about us in whatever means of communication you are most comfortable.
