Alicia's Creative Memories Class Layouts for the June 23, 2012 Crop!

Alicia O'Brant, our resident Creative Memories guru, has taken up the trend from all the hot scrapbooking magazines and designed a layout working from a page sketch.  The first page is a Designer Print page as the base and the second page has a white shimmer paper base and uses Designer Solids to create a border with the Border Maker.  You will embellish with paper ribbons, paper flowers and paper buttons.  Alicia will have have coordinating floss to finish off the buttons! The mats and journal boxes are from the storybox. You will have your choice of coordinating sentiment sticker, too!  (Please bring a 12" trimmer and adhesive.)

Also, please remember, Alicia is also willing to offer a digital scrapbooking class using a free downloadable trial version of Creative Memories software if anyone is interested in bringing their laptop to try it out!

Edith's Stampin Up Card Class for the June 23 Crop

Hey Ladies!  Edith just shared these awesome cards that she plans to offer as a Stamp-A-Stack class at our June 23, 2012 crop.  Here's what she has to say:

I do the work, you get the oohs & aahs!

I will be featuring 2 Stampin’ Up Card Classes at the crop morning and afternoon. I design the cards, cut the supplies and assemble into kits.  You stamp and assemble the cards.  The lucky recipients will be wowed with your artistic talent.  You save money over what you would pay for store bought cards. 

What does it cost and what kind of cards are we going to make.

Class participants will make 10 cards for $15.00. There will be two each of 5 designs.  We will make 5 birthday cards. The cards at the right are the designs we will be making.  Please visit my website edith.stampinup.net for information about my business and to see samples of other projects. 

If for some reason you cannot make your cards, I will make them for you for an additional $5.00 fee. 

 

Please bring your favorite adhesive and scissors to class."

Iris Mosaic Class at Stamping Buddies in Cincinnati

Check out this gorgeous iris paper . . . wouldn't it be perfect for Easter pictures or even spring garden pictures?  I know everyone had a lot of early bloomers this year - now you can preserve those memories!  Trust me, the pictures of this paper simply don't do it justice. 

I designed this layout for a class I will be teaching at Stamping Buddies in Cincinnati, OH (near the Kenwood Mall) on Sunday, June 3, 2012 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. 

If you're interested registering for this class, please contact the store directly:  http://www.stampingbuddies.com/

As with all Mosaic Classes, you will need the specially designed Mosaic Moments cutting mat (which will be available for purchase at the store), a craft knife, cork-backed metal ruler, and Dotto repositionable adhesive.

NEW CLASS OFFERING - BLOCK PARTY!!!

Tami Potter is offering her consultants a GREAT opportunity to teach our students the classes that she taught her students at Creating Keepsakes Conventions across the country in 2010.  This layout is called "block party" because ot the block style layout.  There is an adorable quote on the page that says "If we were meant to pop out of bed, we would all sleep in toasters."  This class would be a great way to learn the mosaic technique.  I would love to share it with you.  The cost of this class is only $13 (starter tool kit not included).
