A Muse A Palooza Classes!

Hello friends!
We are focusing on our class segment for A Muse A Palooza and even though we can't share the stamp images just yet-we wanted to entice you with some of the elements used in the upcoming classes. I guarantee there will be lots of glitter, decorative punches, unique techniques and lots of prizes involved in each class. Not to mention yummy treats and fabulous projects too!

**Here is a photo of lucious Prima flowers that are glittered and colored in many hues of red. These will be used in a class or two.... Not to mention the gorgeous sparkle of the A Muse cardstock in fun colors for the holiday season.
