Summertime - and activities abound. Some swim, some
hike but I prefer marathons – page marathons that is! Join me for an
all day workout as we trim down our photo piles and bulk up our albums.
The goal is to finish 6 double page layouts. If the
pace falters pg. 2 of each layout can be completed at home with complete
instructions. Oh and did I mention you’ll also go home with two bonus
kits! – that’s 8 double page layouts!
Imagine leaving class with finished layouts, ready
to go in your album - a gold medal finish for sure. Page 1 [of just 3
samples] is shown. Papers will vary.

Let’s
create a 4”x7” chipboard album using the “Mama-Razzi” line of paper from
Bo Bunny. The rich, warm colors of the paper make it a great album for
all photos…old and new! Plus it would make a great gift for a loved one
with the upcoming holidays. In the album we will be using Bo Bunny
coordinating titles, flowers, tags, pockets, tons of buttons,
rhinestones, ribbons and more. When we’re done, it’s easy to bind with
4 binder rings. Please bring to class your class kit, Pop-Dots, a good
liquid glue, brown ink for edging and a Crop-A-Dile.

On a foggy day I was walking along the beach on one of my morning rambles. As usual I was beach combing for shells that I had picked up a hundred times before and didn’t need. But this time instead of a shell I found something else. As I drew closer I could see it was a bottle half buried in the sand. I dug it out. It was crusted with barnacles, small shells and ringed with rusted metal. As I turned it around I noticed a clear area where I could peer through the hazy glass. But wait something looked back at me!
What will your spirit be? Will it be a fairy of dreams offering you 3 wishes? Or will it be an imp of mischief?
Items to bring: A pair of scissors, paintbrushes and small non-melting items like charms or beads.
**Note: We will be heating diamond glaze so if you are easily susceptible to smells this class may be difficult for you to take.
