"I took a class on Tuesday
night: "Dreams Album in a Box." I just want to compliment
the instructor Veronica - she was so nice. She was very
organized and had everything ready for us. We all seemed to
be at different stages of our book, and she was able to
accommodate all of our different scrapbook speeds. I really
enjoyed myself and hope to take more classes in the future!"

Simply Summer - Box of Big
Tags!
 We’ll
make the box then fill it with an assortment of 8 enormous
(6x9) embellished tags – (that’s 16 sides!) What’s so cool
is that there’s plenty of space in the box so tags with
bulky items attached like sea shells, bottles of sand,
buttons etc. fit just fine. Snips of paper, flowers, ribbon,
stamps, buttons, a charm or two and a little bling combined
with your summer snapshots will create a great keepsake of
special summer memories.
To
trace the template for the box bring a blank piece of 12x12,
cuz you’re sure to want more – think Birthday box, Christmas
box, Thanksgiving Gratitude Tags, advice for a new mom, Grad
or Bride-to-be
Trimmer, Ultimate Glue, sanding block, scissors, distress
ink, black pen & needle tool.
You
can email me
jeani@alamedanet.net for a list of photo
sizes/orientations if you want to add your photos in class.
