Never Disappoints!

Ep 5 was great, everyone came together to learn, to share, to talk and be a part of Foxy. Learning how to make plain black cards beautiful is easy and joyful when you have got Shelby in your corner and am looking forward to the next episode in the series of HHC!

I only saw the second half of class. So I cannot review all. The part I saw was good, nice, homy and brought me a bit of x-mas vibes

Not only was it fun to chat with everyone, Shelby showed us 3 stunning cards in metallic watercolor. Each with their own style, as well. Definitely need to check this out.

I loved Shelby's class on this. The last card was hands down my favourite and the rest come in a close second 😉
