    Hi :-) I'm new to the Curious platform so it could be that I'm just not seeing it. But is there a printable supply list? Thanks!

    Oh! I'm so sorry to be slow in replying :( The supply list is in Lesson 2. It really should be ini lesson 1! I think I'll add it to Lesson 1 as well. Thanks.

    I got the course info from a link with Lindsay Wierich, The Frugal Crafter. She said to mention that. She is a wonderful source of inspiration. Looking forward to the course. I am a papercrafter and cardmaker. Got started when I couldn't use my weaving looms or knit machines when I got very ill last year (HAD cancer). Now I'm hooked and never considered that I could really do art but I am opening up to more inner potential and freedom to express. Thanks for your part in my future inspiration.

    Wow! It sounds like you've had a battle! I'm glad you are better Candis. It's great to hear that you are enjoying new inspiration in your life and I'm proud to be a little part of it. Lindsay is amazing. Her YouTube channel is so much fun.
