Good Morning Friends!
What a great weekend we have had! 
We had Julia teach another 3Dimemsional class and Arta teach a large class creating WINTER FAIRIES.  So much fun and lots of laughter during the fairies class:


 Lots more to tell you about and lots of photos of our upcoming classes following our news:

ARTSY will have a booth at this coming Saturday (Feb 2) at the inaugural FRONT RANGE SCRAPBOOKING AND PAPER CRAFTS FAIR, which is being held at The Embassy Suites Conference Center, on Crossroads Blvd (the hotel at The Ranch). 
And our BIG news is that:  We are featuring Els, owner and designer of Elizabeth Craft Designs. Her company is located in California, so it's quite a treat to have her demonstrating her products for us at this event!  Els will be demoing and selling her new dies, shimmer sheets, microfine glitters, velvet sheets, and special tape sheets at this expo.  It's an all day... 9-6pm... event.  Croppers will have lots of space to work and they along with card makers and stampers will have fun visiting with vendors, watching demos and creating Make N Takes.  We are selling tickets here for $15, which includes snacks and beverages throughout the day.  If you wait until Sat, the admission price will be $20.  We'll have the tickets for sale until Friday at 6pm.  Come in soon to purchase yours.  Please bring a check or cash for these tickets.  LOTS OF FUN FOR ALL! JOIN US AND MANY OTHER VENDORS FOR A SPECTACULAR CREATIVE CRAFTING DAY!
