New Basic Grey Lemonade Collection
These summer fun colors will be great on so many projects, I can't wait to work them into some classes for July.
Collage Class Tonight!
What a perfect time to head inside for an amazing class!
Tonight from 5:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m., Louise will show you how to make this fabulous photo holder. We have a few open spots tonight so just call to hold a spot.
Louise Granlund is back and will help you create a chipboard photo holder. Be warned that your creation will not look like the example! Come with an adventurous spirit as we experiment with collage! You'll be given a blank chipboard book, patterned paper along with a a packet of ephemera so you can create your own design! You may bring a photo approximately 5x6 to class or add it at a later time. Please bring strong adhesive, scissors and brown chalk ink for inking edges. (I recommend ChalkBox Chestnut Roan in the small cat's eye size). Oh, and don't forget your creative spirit!

1st Birthday Wrap Up
to all our wonderful customers who came out to wish us a Happy 1st Birthday this past weekend.
It just reminded me why I do this job and why we are here.
It was a whirlwind last week here at CraftFancy but the reward was everyone's joy last weekend with all the new products, the free projects and demos. I am so glad that everything worked out and we pulled it off.
Also, thanks to these wonderful vendors who sent us some wonderful prizes for our raffle on Saturday, we love companies who support the independent stores.
Thanks to...
Hero Arts
Pink Paislee

And finally, to these amazing ladies who came in and helped us out by making samples, doing demos and helping us out time and time again.
We couldn't have done it without you.
