SUMMARY:Papercutting: Valentine's Day Edition (Evening)
DESCRIPTION:Valentine cards date back to the early 1800’s. Inspired by German folk art\, these cards were designed with pin pricks or to look lacy. Over time the designs evolved to full out papercuts.  In each session\, led by Mindy Shapiro\, you will see some historical examples and create your own cards using either templates or your very own design!
