Cards that Tell Tales from Christmas’ Past!

Experience the rich history of Christmas with our Vintage Festive Card Making Class. Using pre-dyed distressed cardstock, vintage ephemera, lace, buttons and ribbons, we'll create one-of-a-kind cards that tell the story of Christmas throughout the ages…revisit the past as we decorate trees, sing carols, hang stockings and ice skate into the past.

Our cards will be a tapestry of nostalgia, bringing to life the magic of Christmases gone by!

In this hands-on workshop we will:

  • Learn the art of aging paper to add depth and character
  • Design cards using vintage elements
  • Apply embellishments like stitching, stamping, buttons & ribbbons to cards
  • Learn more about what Christmas was like in this era

You will take home a set of Vintage styled greeting cards, enjoy listening to Christmas music from the era as you craft. Drift away back in time for the afternoon in lovely Docklands.

Pixie Paper Company

Welcome friends to Pixie Paper Company! A place where you can explore your creativity and meet many like-minded friends. Pixie Paper Company is about helping people connect with their creativity in a warm, inviting space, where we can leave behind our computers, housework, stressful jobs and connect with ourselves and each other by absorbing ourselves in that magical zone that making art takes us to.

Pixie Paper Company is dedicated to the paper arts – papermaking, journal making, vintage collage, giftwrap, cards and stationery as well as providing classes that promote self - exploration and goal setting as found in our journal writing and vision board classes.

It is my dearest wish that we be those wonderful people who send handmade cards and letters and who write in our handcrafted journals, who make our own giftwrap and presents and inject our personality and love into all that we create! We offer an array of classes scheduled throughout the year on all of the above crafts.

Inspiring music and all supplies are always provided.

You will be taught by Cherie Ward (me), an extremely experienced paper crafter who has studied book restoration and paper making and has been practicing these crafts for 20 years. I am also a university qualified Trainer, Counsellor and Coach and I can't wait to share my passion for paper and all things stationery with YOU!
