March 30 and 31 scrapbooking classes!!

Let me help you make more progress completing more of your scrapbooking this year...one page...and one layout at a time! We will meet every month at 6:30pm and 7:30pm on either the 3rd, 4th, or 5th weekend of each month. Join us on Friday night or Saturday night or even both nights if you want/need extra time to create with us!

At 6:30pm we will create one 12x12 layout with traditional materials (paper, stamps, and embellishments!) for $10 per layout. This month we will be using the NEW Victory papers and each class kit will include a full assortment of

Cork Alphabet Stickers (a $5.95 value)!

 Then, at 7:30pm we will create another layout (faster, simpler, and easier!) with Studio J online at no additional charge! Yes, you read that correctly, the Studio J class is FREE! You can join us for both segments of class time, or just come for either the first or second hour, whichever interests you most!

The layout design is inspired by (Left-side) Reflections - Sidebar-Quartet (page 44)

and (Right-side) Reflections - Title Topper-Photos (page 21).

I will have all of the papers for the layout pre-cut and ready for you to stamp, assemble, and embellish! All you will need to bring is your adhesive, photos, and favorite basic tools you like to use. Please PLAN AHEAD NOW by getting your prints printed/finding the photos you will want to bring to use (or you can also add the photos at home later if you prefer)! Left side of the page could include (1)5x7, (1)6x6, OR (4)3.5x3.5" square photos. Right side of the page could include (3)4x5 photos (as shown) or a combination of 4x4's and 4x6's (I can show you how to crop your 3 photos to make them fit at the class)! I will have kit supplies available for just 12 students, so please RSVP ASAP to guarantee your spot NOW before it fills up!!...and please let me know which night you prefer to join us (Friday and/or Saturday) when you RSVP!

Next, here is the Studio J layout I've chosen for us to create together this month:

For those joining us for the Studio J class at 7:30pm, bringing your own laptop computer is recommended, but not required. I do have a few extra computers available for your use when you reserve one with me (first come, first serve)! It is also very important that you remember to bring your digital photos to use (files that you have saved on a memory card, flash drive, or dvd) to create the Studio J pages (or you can add the photos later)!
