Carol Wingert

Here's what Carol has to say about her style of creating and teaching:  "My style is definitely eclectic...you just never know what surprises are in store for you in the project you are creating.  The classes are fast paced and I love teaching fun techniques...you will leave knowing for sure that you are an artist!  I'm excited about sharing this special weekend with you and am really looking forward to sharing three new projects especially created for this weekend."

“REMEMBER” TRAVEL JOURNAL
This little travel journal just may have it all…it’s portable enough to stick in a tote, yet large enough for photos, journaling and ephemera…it has a clipboard on the cover (imagine that!) and pockets inside…it has ribbon, twill and dangles…and it’s filled with brand new papers from Teresa Collins and coordinating papers from Jenni Bowlin. Best of all, you make the book from scratch…all by yourself! You will definitely not want to leave home without this one!
Sheri says, " Carol was the artist who inspired our Gypsy Trunk series, so with this class think Gypsy Trunk, one step more relaxed but also one step more sophisticated.

FOR GIRLS ONLY
What can be more feminine than a hand made book filled with spring papers, butterflies and flowers? And that’s just the start. Add a little texture (created by you!), some ribbons, lace and buttons and you will have a beautiful book to keep or to give as a gift. This is the perfect book to celebrate friendships or to honor a special female in your life. And don’t forget, Mother’s Day is just around the corner!

Sheri says: Anyone who has wanted to take a class from one of our guest teachers but couldn't or was nervous of what you are getting into this is the class for you. Break your rut come let your hair down and create something pretty but not to frou frou and full of techniques that will fit neatly into your suitcase of tricks.
