UPCOMING CLASS - Mosaic Moments 4x4 Corner Die Layout


(Photo and Layout Credit to Shelley Palmer Jamieson of Franklin, TN.)

This page pattern will be the class layout.  It is made using the new 4x4 Corner Die Set, which retails for $33.99.

This class will take place on Saturday, April 6, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. at The Loveland United Methodist Church.  10975 S. Lebanon Road, Loveland, OH 45140.  There is a "No Frills Crop" going on that day from 10:00 am to 9:00 p.m. for only $5 to crop all day.  Details about the crop are found on the Cropportunities FB group under the events tab.

Preregistration and prepayment are REQUIRED.
You will pay $40 and I will provide:

1) class instruction and layout samples;

2)  the base grid paper (your choice from the colors I have on hand).  In the sample that I have shared, this is the RED paper that is used for the background;

3) the 4x4 Corner die set – a $34 value (before tax and shipping) - YOURS TO KEEP after class;

4) the use of my border dies (where the hearts are in this pic) – I will have sunflower border, star border, etc. available to lend you for your use.  We’re also hoping that some of Jamie Green’s CM Border Maker cartridges will prove useful in this regard, as well.

You MUST bring the following:

1)         Your own photos!  Your subject matter may be any other topic of your choice. Pay attention to the arrangement of the photos as you plan your own layouts and select the photos you wish to use – notice how the pieces are placed and keep the shape in mind as you make your selections.  Bring more images than you think you will need.  It is better to have choices when it comes to fitting the pics in the dies and on the grid.  You may also wish to bring double prints in case you make any mistakes.  4x6" prints are recommended, although you may wish to go with some 5x7s depending on the scale/positioning of the people in the photos.  It is NOT recommended that you purchase the "true" ratio prints that come out to be like 5.??" long as those may not fit the layout.
2)         Your own colored cardstock that coordinates with your photos.  In the sample that I have shared, this is the WHITE paper that frames the individual photos.    
3)         Your own Big Shot or similar die cutting machine with platforms, plates, etc. for cutting wafer-thin dies.  Two people may share if you don’t have your own but I honestly don’t recommend it as it will slow you both down.
4)  Your own adhesive - Mosaic Moments recommends Herma Dotta repositionable adhesive.

You may also choose to bring some additional colored or patterned cardstock that works with the theme of your photos.

PAYMENT:
REGISTER EARLY!!!!  I have purchased five sets of dies for this class.
1)         If you are one of the first five people to register and pay, you will make payment directly to me.  PM me for Paypal details.
2)         If we have 9 or more students registered and paid before March 22, 2019, I will place an order on that date.
3)         If we have more than five students but less than nine, or if payment is not received by March 22, 2019, you will need to purchase your own dies through the link on my blog, and you will be responsible for paying for shipping.  I will post updates in the Cropportunities event as to registration numbers and specific instructions on ordering.


Here are details about the Die set that is included in the cost of the class - YOURS TO KEEP:



Mosaic Moments Corners 4x4 die set contains 3 dies.

The Large die cuts two corners that each cover 1/2 of a 4x4 square on the Mosaic Moments Grid Paper.

This set also includes 2 layering corner dies.
Corners can be placed behind or on top of your photos or use them to create zig zags, chevrons or other unique designs. See photos above for ideas.
Die measures 4.375" x 4.375".  This die set needs to be snipped apart.
Mosaic Moments metal dies are designed to work with Mosaic Moments Grid Paper. They will cut paper, card stock, photos and other soft thin materials.
Works in most die-cutting machines designed for cutting thin-metal dies.
Made in the USA.

NOTE: die machines & dies vary. If your machine leaves an embossed ridge try using thinner plates and/or use a stack of cardstock instead of an additional plate.  If the machine does not cut through add one or more sheets of cardstock as a shim until you get the desired result.
