Classes and Events - Ann's PaperWorks

Are you interested in coming to a creative class or event? I host various events, both card-making and memory-keeping, (daytime and night-time events) scheduled locally on the Sunshine Coast. I have also expanded my offerings to include online classes. If you need further information, contact me.

Bring along your basic kit for each class. Don’t have what you need? I will have adhesives on hand for purchase. If you need any Stampin’ Up! supplies, you can purchase them from my online store or contact me directly.

This is my upcoming Creative Class Calendar in date order – for further details regarding card-making classes and memory-keeping classes, check below.

To RSVP for any of these classes, message/text me or contact me. When you RSVP that you are coming, it is a commitment to attend the event. I will have prepared a class kit just for you. If due to unforeseen circumstances, you are unable to make the event, your kit will be provided (not including postage) to you for the cost of the class. Prepayment for all classes is required.

Stampin’ Around the Globe with Christine and Ann (Facebook and YouTube Livestream) – Free Online Cardmaking Class

Time: 10 am usually first Friday of the Month
Free Event on both Facebook and YouTube (live and on replay)
Featured this month: Wildflower Birthday Suite Collection

Christine from Mail Something Pretty and I will be getting together again and having some crafting fun – 10 am Brisbane time.

We always have such a good time. This is what crafting is supposed to be about – fun crafting together.
We haven’t seen each other’s projects, so it is always a surprise. Now we both know it is not a competition, but the friendly rivalry does inspire both of us to be even more creative as we share our passion for crafting and all things Stampin’ Up!

And based on your comments, you found it so much fun as well. Here is just one comment from Wanda:
“I watched your FB live with Christine. The cards you both made were both inspiring. And the cardmaking process was very fun and entertaining. I had lots of laughs. The two of you work so well together.”

Live on Facebook and YouTube 7 pm Every Wednesday Night

Time: 7 pm every Wednesday night
Location: Facebook and YouTube (under Live)
Cost: FREE
Projects: Each week, I showcase two or three projects demonstrating a technique, product or design. Each LIVE is full of tips, techniques, and all the Stampin’ Up! news and special offers. The projects are designed to be fun for both the novice and the experienced stamper. It doesn’t matter whether you are a beginner or an experienced stamper, you will love creating the projects I demonstrate.
It is the perfect time to gather together, connect again, and build your crafting knowledge and enjoyment. You can ask questions, check out what is trending, and just have fun. Join in!

Saturday, 8 March 2025 Homemade Cards for Seniors Australia Charity Event 1- 4pm

Sunday, 9 March 2025 Homemade Cards for Seniors Australia Charity Event 1- 4pm

IF YOU CAN HOLD A PAIR OF SCISSORS AND A GLUE BOTTLE AND HAVE A KIND HEART, THIS EVENT IS FOR YOU!

I have volunteered to coordinate the collection of donated home-made greeting cards on the Sunshine Coast on behalf of Homemade Cards for Seniors Australia. All cards on this occasion will be distributed to Meals on Wheels recipients to bring seniors joy and happiness. And lots of cards are required as so many senior Australians receive Meals on Wheels.

The theme for this collection is Easter.

More information about Homemade Cards for Seniors Australia.

If you are unable to attend this event, your donated cards are still needed. Contact me for further information, or check out the FB page.

This event is designed to bring joy and happiness to the attendees and the seniors from Meals on Wheels. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

I am holding two events over consecutive days. Everyone is welcome! Bring your neighbours, friends, family, husbands, grandkids.

Cost: $14 for five Easter cards (three to be donated to Homemade Cards for Seniors Australia and two for you, unless of course you want to donate these as well). Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced stamper, this event is suitable for you. We welcome all levels of expertise.

Required: If you don’t have a basic kit, I will provide all you need for the class. But a plate for afternoon tea would be appreciated.

RSVP and prepayment (Direct Debit or cash) by 2 March 2025. Contact Me, or text, messenger, or email [email protected].

Sunday 18 May 2025 Boutique Card Class – Stamp-a-Stack

Cost: $35 Location: my in-home studio

What to Bring: Your basic kit, including a Paper Trimmer. If you run out of adhesives mid-card frenzy, don’t worry —I’ll have some available for purchase on the day.

Projects: We’ll be making 8 gorgeous cards—4 different designs, 2 of each — complete with decorated inserts and envelopes.

Theme: Birthdays & Thinking of You (because who doesn’t love receiving a little happy mail?)

Featured Products: TBA as I will be showcasing products that have yet to be released (I promise they’ll be fabulous — stay tuned!)

RSVP & Prepayment: By 12 pm, 14 May 2025.

Why you don’t want to miss this event:

Need to refill your card stash for the second half of the year? I’ve got you covered! This event is your chance to enjoy a day of creativity, connection, and maybe a little bit of chaos (the fun kind).

Imagine this: a boutique class with small numbers, lots of laughter, and a few surprises along the way. And if you bring a friend who’s never attended one of my classes before, I’ll have a special gift waiting for you. Because crafting is better with mates!

It’s the perfect excuse for some well-deserved me-time — plus, who wouldn’t want a day on the beautiful Sunshine Coast?
