Elsie Flannigan is one of my favorite people on the planet. We’ve never met, but I want to be her when I grow up. I first discovered Elsie when she was creating these amazing scrapbooking layouts that kept popping up in magazines. She even published a book with fun scrapbooking challenges to try out. And then she went and started designing her own products for KI Memories! So it’s no surprise she’s still inspiring me with her retail venture, Red Velvet Art – an awesome, creative space and storefront with kitschy, retro, fabulous, rockstar handmade products. Elsie and her friends leave their touches on every piece, and I would kill to feel just fractionally as creative and inspired as she seems to be.
I’m hoping that RVA’s Autumn Craft Class will at least give me a nudge in that direction. Elsie and her partner Rachel Denbow are teaching an 8-week class that will let participants create no fewer than *30* crafty projects to keep, share, give as gifts, whatever. A private blog, weekly live chats, tons of photos and instructions, and the ability to use materials you already have make this class stand out. I’m excited to make all the fun projects, just to keep my hands busy (and away from the computer that seems to be chained to me), and I’m sure I’ll pick a few new techniques that I can apply to my own future projects. But I’m mostly excited to be inspired – to sit at the virtual feet of a person I admire and learn more about them, their creative process, and their unique take on life.
The class size is limited and the class begins September 15th – so if you’re interested sign up soon!
