Things to bring to the classes:
All classes will need sharp scissors and adhesive (we will not provide adhesive).Some projects recommend sticky tape- which can be purchased through Stampin’ Up! or a craft store (I’ve even seen it at Wal-Mart- but it’s not as long-lasting).These lists are designed for you to gather to make the classes go quicker, but if you do not have the supplies- don’t fret, they’ll be there for you (except adhesive!)
