We are excited to announce our Create & Connect HOLIDAY CARDS virtual card-making event! Join us in October for two jam-packed days full of crafty fun with our amazing instructors: Emily Midgett, Jennifer McGuire, Kathleen Schmelz, Kristina Werner, Nichol Spohr, and Yana Smakula.

You'll have the luxury of creating beautiful, elegant, and timeless Pinkfresh Studio cards from the comfort of your own home, thanks to these amazingly talented designers!

Registering for our Create & Connect virtual event gives you access to 6 LIVE classes during the event dates. These classes use brand-new Pinkfresh Studio products that have never been seen or sold before! Throughout the event, you will make festive cards while exploring new card-making techniques, and gain tips and tricks for using your event products. 

Each class is about 2 hours long, and you create 2 cards with each instructor. We provide a printed booklet for each class, containing instructions, in case you wish to complete the class projects at your own pace.

Each instructor provides 2 bonus make-and-take projects, complete with instructions and short pre-recorded videos that you will create on your own. These will give you more ideas for stretching your supplies to get continued use of all the beautiful products in your event kit! 

Let’s take a look at the classes!

Class 1- Stretch Your Supplies with Jennifer McGuire

Join Jennifer McGuire in this inspiring class as she combines all five class kits with a selection of essential tools. With her signature creativity and thoughtful design, Jennifer demonstrates innovative ways to stretch your supplies and craft beautiful cards.
