Time to Snip, Snap, and Scrap

Two Scrapbooking Workshops

Two page workshop - Thursday, April 12, 6:30 - 8:30

$8

All supplies needed other than your adhesive, paper trimmer, and scissors
 are provided the night of the workshop.  

For the two-page scrap night, if the colors/papers in this layout do not match your pictures,
you are able to swap out for paper better suited to your needs.

Multi-page Workshop - Thursday, April 19, 5:30 - 9:30

This month I am offering 2 sets of layouts for the CTMH Stargazer paper pack.
The first one does not include the Stargazer "hero" paper - Outer Space Theme.  These are bright layouts featuring primary colors great for many types of summer or kids' activities.
(Click on the pictures below to get a better look at them.)

SET 1

SET 2

The second set of layouts uses the "hero" Stargazer paper or themed complements. 

Materials for this workshop need to be pre-ordered by April 12th.  Contact me.

See my website for the paper pack I used.

Hope you will join me for one or both of these workshops this month.

This month's stamp set includes great images for creating scrapbook 

pages and other motivational paper projects. 

Notice the the great little border stamps as well.

I used the stamp of the month along with two other favorite CTMH stamp sets to create this layout for my grandchildren's scrapbook album.

Let's take a look at the details from this stamp set.  

I love the letters that can be colored in to match your project.

Notice the border stamp used on the Smoothie strip.

I used this month's stamp set along with papers from the Make Waves 
paper pack to create a birthday layout for my granddaughter's 4th birthday.

The flowered picture mats are from the PML (Picture My Life) page in the paper pack.

The smaller 3 x 4 cards were corner rounded and matted with black yardstick   

The smaller cards could be for journaling or smaller pictures.
