Feb 23rd Class-Old Letters and Keepsakes

Even though our class was small, we had a wonderful time sharing life's

stories with each other as well as creating a unique album to preserve

some of life's precious memories.  This class was packed with lots of

distressing techniques and the enthusiasm that was displayed by all

It is what keeps me on my toes to come up with a fresh new project

each month.  Although, I do have to say I made the comment to everyone

who was present, that I don't know how I can top this class, but I

will try.  Even though it gets tiresome with these all day classes, I

am eager and willing to do it again next time.  It is such fun to be

with people who share the same love of scrapbooking as I do.

Zutter Corner Rounder

OMG!!!!!!!!  I have been waiting for someone to come out with

this heavy duty corner rounder that cuts through chipboard.

This is on my list of first JUST GOTTA HAVE IT!  I am going to

the Scrapbook Expo in Orlando next month.  I am hoping they will

have it there.  My first major purchase will be for this hot new item.

LOVE IT, LOVE IT,  did I say I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!

Check out the New Scallop Punch from Fiskars

I knew it was just a matter of time until someone would

come  out with this punch.  This is a two in one- punches

the holes and scallops at the same time.  This is another

must have punch.

New Cricket Software

Check out the latest development in the Cricut Software.  It is unbelievable

what this new software enables you do create.  This is a must have for

all  you "Cricut"  owners.  I am not sure the price, but I think it retails

for $89.00.  I did hear that someone bought it at Wal mart in Virginia,

so be sure to check with your local Wal mart  Store to see if they carry this

new hot item.

Cropping With Friends

June-Marty Feb 2008 

I  had such a wonderful day cropping with a few of my friends yesterday.  The day was filled with

sharing lots of ideas and laughter and  OOOO!  such delicious Food.  Thank you June for hosting

this crop in your lovely home. I recently made an 8x8 "Coffee Album" and these snapshots were

taken so that I could add them to my newly completed album with photos of special friends who also

share the same love for Coffee as I do. Maybe we should call ourselves the "Coffee Club Croppers"

(the three C's) Just an idea. I was also privileged to meet someone new, her name is Sue, she is

such a delightful person.  She had so many wonderful and funny stories to share.  Sue also has a

special talent for making unique cards.  (Sue had to leave early so I don't have a photo of her to share

for this post).

March Class 6x6 "Touch of Vintage" Spring Time Album




This album is a 6x6 chipboard covered front and back covers, bound with (2) rings with twill ribbon handles. I used mini vintage Easter/Spring cards throughout the entire book. There are14 pages. You will be using Ranger distressing inks to give an appearance of tea dye effects.
I will be taking sign ups for this class starting Feb 23rd. The date for the class is to be announced due to the Easter Holiday in March. The cost for this class is $45.00
The class will also include a surprise project. The papers and embelishments will vary for the surprise project only ( no two will be alike). You will need to let me know preference of color scheme that is the only choice you will have for the surprise project for example (blues, pinks, reds, etc.) Please contact me via email I will send you a registration form. The Class supply list will be sent via separate email once registration is complete. I look forward to seeing you.
NOTE: The actual album is the same for everyone, there was some confusion that you were able to choose the album colors.- only the surprise project portion of the class is where you will choose your color scheme. Sorry for the confusion.
