Mother's Day Cardmaking and Woodburning

Saturday, May 10th, 2025
1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Tuition: $66, Materials: $14

Looking to surprise your mom with something truly unique this Mother’s Day? Or perhaps you’re interested in sharing a memorable experience with her? Join us for a special class where you’ll have the chance to design a beautiful greeting card. Not only will you create this card, but you’ll also learn how to replicate it onto a piece of wood, transforming it into a timeless work of art. By the end of the session, you’ll leave with both the original card and its replica, perfect for giving as one-of-a-kind gifts.

There will be two instructors leading this class who will offer help and guidance during your creations. All materials will be provided for you, which includes card materials and woodburing tools. Students will use tracing paper to carbon copy their card artwork on the wood pieces before burning art onto the wood.  

This class is open to all ages. Students under 18 must have a guardian present. The accompanying guardian does not have to register for the class, but they are welcome to do so if they'd like.
