Graphic 45 Catch of the Day trifold waterfall folio album

 

This class will be a trifold waterfall album.

The book is 8x8 in size and is ready to be decorated, no assembling of the actual album

on this one.

We will be using G45 supplies from the Catch of the Day line.  It has a very coastal 

feel for your travel photos but still has a “local” feel to it because of our lighthouses 

on our peninsula.

There are all kinds of pockets to tuck photos into and the ephemera cards

included.

There are 2 waterfall photo flap sections,

one going horizontal and one vertical.  They have

magnetic closures.

I will have 2 class dates for in class assembly, but this would be a fairly 

easy class to put together on your own if you wanted a kit.

Class Dates:

Saturday, May 1st @ 11 am

Wednesday, May 5th @ 5:30 pm (2 spots left)

Supplies Needed:

Paper trimmer, scissors, pop dots, adhesive runner, and Scor tape

Cost:

$30.00

Wild Things class (2016)

I have a class that isn't my usual, thought we could try something new.

"Where the Wild Things Are" was a favorite book of mine when I was 

very little.  My kids also loved the book too.

When I saw that the paper came out for this

 I really wanted to use it.

We will be using a Graphic 45 black mixed media box 

that has a magnetic closure.

The book is 5x5 in size.

There are 6 black photo mats that we will be decorating.

So back to back there will be 12 decorated pages.

Here are a few of them.

Supplies Needed:

Foam pop dots, glue stick, corner rounder, and fine tipped scissors.

(Just a hint: Creative Memories scissors are too big, you need the Cutterbees type.)

Cost:

Cost is $13.00 for the class if it is pre-paid.

$16.00 if paid at the time of class.

I would really appreciate if the class was prepaid so I dont end up with extras.

*I can do kits if you cant make it to a class date (if there are enough supplies).

Class Dates:

Wednesday, August 31st @ 5:30 pm. (full)

Thursday, September 1st @ 1 pm. (full)

Saturday, September 3rd @ noon. (full)

Valentine Album

It seems like Valentines Day is still far enough away but it will be here before we know it! I ordered in these cool little chipboard books (actually about 9x5) with the matching paper from Little Yellow Bicycle.

Whats cool about the matching paper pad is that the paper is pre-punched and is perfectly sized to fit the chipboard pages that have a decorative edge to them. The book even contains 3 metal rings to hold it together.

The paper tablet also contains a sticker sheet and some extra paper to add to the book for accents. I just added in some self-adhesive gems to sparkle it up a bit. This book was SO EASY to assemble, it took no time at all! I just need a few more pictures to be completely finished.

I have 12x12 sheets of red and pink glitter paper just in too! I used the Cricut to cut out my own letters.
Stop by the shop to see all the new Valentine papers and accessories.

School Days Lunch Tin class

Ever wonder what to do with all the wallet photos from the packages of school pictures? This class is a great way to use them up and have memories of your child's school years.

The lunch tin is 5.5 x 4 inches in size, just a bit smaller than the size I normally sell at the store. Inside fits a mini chipboard book we will decorate for grades K-12. This is a great way to catch up on old photos or get ahead for a child who hasn't started school yet. There is a little space that you can jot down notes or special dates on each page.

There will be a little stamping, mod-podging, and embellishment adding.

Wednesday, September 9th @ 1 pm. (1 SPOT LEFT)

ZOO chipboard album class

In this class we will be making a 12 page (6 pages front and back) Zoo album. The book is a Bo Bunny chipboard album and is loaded with embellishments.

I love these albums because they have very detailed and cascading pages.

There is a ton of embellishments used in this album.... ribbon, flowers, buttons, hemp twine, and more. We will be using the new tiny attacher stapler from Tim Holtz, a wonderful tool! Here are a few up close photos.

Supplies you will need to bring are: adhesive, glue stick, and glue dots (smaller is better).

Just {Plane} Cute

I had a little spare time today after cutting paper for classes so I wanted to do something I rarely get to do for myself... Scrapbook!

I worked on some little boy pages that I will be able to fill easily with pictures. I used paper and Chipboard stickers from Creative Imaginations.

I also used "Thickers" for the lettering, ribbon, and lots of pop dots!
I am starting to get pretty handy with the craft knife. I was happy that these pages turned out just "plane" cute!

Mini Chipboard Clipboards

Stampendous makes this 3 pack of cute little chipboard clipboards. I covered them with Doodlebug "Love Spell" paper and tied a bunch of scrap ribbon pieces to them.
The best part about these clipboards is that the metal clip is not permanently attached, you can easily remove it to decorate the chipboard and then put it back on.


I put Post-It Notes on 2 of the clipboards, the smaller one holds the mini Post-Its perfectly.

Basic Grey Valentines

Get ready for Valentine's Day with this easy step-by-step kit. I have ordered in some of the new Basic Grey "Bittersweet" greeting card kits.

This kit includes a beautiful assortment of 8 patterned cards (pre-scored too), self adhesive chipboard, precision die cuts, 2 toned rub-ons, and 8 matching envelopes.

Everything you need including step-by-step instructions and project sheet are included.

The kits retail for 14.99 and would make a good project for the crop too. Email me if you would like me to set one aside for you.

Its all in the packaging...

I just got some new tins in that are so cute for Christmas. These squarish tins hold 4 Ghiradelli squares perfectly! These make nice little gifts for teachers, co-workers, neighbors, etc.

I also got more of the "Nugget tins" in too. If you are unfamiliar with Nugget tins, click the link on the side bar for "Altered Items".

All I did to decorate this tin was cut a small strip of paper to wrap around and put a matching rub-on on the lid. Very easy!

I also have gift card holders in stock too. These chipboard holders are 5.5 x 5.5 and have a slot to hold a giftcard. I decorated this one to match the tin.

Target has monkey giftcards... in case anyone "needs" one!

Halloween Accordian Book

This class is for a 6x6 inch sized accordian book. The book has 5 black chipboard pieces tied together to make an accordian scrapbook album. When all folded up it measures about 6x6x1 and when its pulled apart it stands up to make a decorative album. This book would make a good coffee table or mantle decoration around Halloween time.

There are lots of ribbons, brads, spiral clips, and poped up cardstock stickers used in this book.

Dates:

Saturday, Oct. 18th @ 11 am. (FULL)

Monday, Oct. 20th @ 6pm. (1 SPOT LEFT)

Wednesday, Oct. 22 @ 1 pm and 6 pm.

Supplies needed: glue stick, pop dots Cost: $12.00

Watch for dates coming soon for Halloween 12x12 scrapbook pages!
