This information will be available on our Classroom Blog next week. In our classes, participants learn basic scrapbooking, card making and paper crafting techniques. Classes are normally provided at no cost to the participant because a finished project is not included. However, the project demos (Give & Takes) for this Online Open House are available for free. Give & Take Kits will be available in our Etsy Shop. Shipping is free when you make a purchase from our Etsy Shop. Finished Give & Takes can also be purchases in our Etsy Shop at a reduced price. Coupon codes will be available after the event.

Question of the Post: What type of classes would you like Distinctive Moments to offer?
