Hi! I'm Shelley!
I’m a relaxed, playful crafter who believes creativity should feel fun and pressure free. I’ve been creating for more than 15 years, and I’m a big believer that mistakes are just part of the magic.
My teaching style is clear, encouraging, and perfect for all levels. I create a welcoming space where you can try new things, explore colour, and enjoy the process without worrying about perfection.
I love sharing my excitement with others and watching those “oh wow” moments appear. I cannot wait to craft with you.

FAQs
How long is the workshop?
Plan for about 2-2.5 hours of colourful, creative fun. We will take our time, enjoy the process and craft at a relaxed pace
What supplies do I need?
A full supply list will be emailed to you one week before the workshop. Everything is easy to find and beginner friendly. No fancy tools required.
Is this workshop good for beginners?
Yes. Absolutely. It is perfect for brand new crafters and for experienced makers who want fresh ideas, new techniques, and a fun creative boost. If you want a preview of what we will be doing, you can check out my video here.
Do I need to be on camera?
Nope. You are welcome to join in your cozy pants, hair in a messy bun, totally camera off. You can chat, ask questions, and participate at whatever level feels comfortable.
Will there be a replay? What if I can't attend live?
Yes. You will have private YouTube replay access for at least a year. Watch it again anytime, pause and craft slowly, or revisit your favourite techniques whenever you want. If you can't attend live, you can still join in. The full replay will be waiting for you, and you will not miss a single technique or instruction.
What are we going to do?
-What exactly we will be making will depend upon what backgrounds will be chosen! My plan is to make at least 8+ backgrounds, using a variety of techniques. Then we will turn some of those backgrounds into cards.
Is there any homework to do before the Workshop?
No actual homework other than gathering your supplies! We will do everything in class, in real time!
What if I need help during the workshop?
I will be right there with you, ready to answer questions in real time. The chat will also be full of friendly, supportive papercrafters who love to cheer each other on.
