  July has been such a busy month for me-- Family reunion- it was so nice to have all my children and grandchildren together. We had family photos taken that turned out fabulous. Can't wait to scrapbook them. But now that summer is winding down somewhat, I'm ready to start scrappin again. This past weekend I did 9 double page layouts.I finished 4 Easter, 4- 4th of July, and the August vacation layout. And today got the Sept class ready also.
  
My August class will be held on Monday August 6 at 6:30 PM. The paper will be precut as usual. It should be a quick class. The new idea books will be released on August 1st. You will receive a free idea book with the class. I ordered a few things that I hope to have done before the class. We have a new cricut cartridge that cuts some fabulous things. I Can't wait to show you. I hope to have a cute teacher gift box ready by class time also. I'll post the box soon. The cost will be $8. Please RSVP to scrappy55@msn.com by August 1st.

    This will be my June layout. My upline Susan Tomaino had a crop day for consultants a few months ago, and this is one of her projects. I loved it. So this will be the layout I will use for my workshop. Summer has already started. Most kids in the area are out of school and hot weather is already here. The 4th of July will be here before we know it.
     This class will be offered Friday June 22 at 7PM. The cost is $7. The layout will come together really quickly. I hope to have a cute gift/treat bag that we can make also. I'll work on that, and post it as soon as it's completed.

March classes are posted

   


This layout uses Close to my Heart's Wonderland Paperpack. When the paperpack came out I thought this would make a great winter layout, we have had some cold days, but not a lot of snow days. But I loved this layout.
    This class is offered on March 23 at 6:30.
 









   This LO shows off one of our new stamp sets featuring Easter. I just love these little peeps. I will show you how to make this cute little basket. And Close to my Heart has little springs that have popped up the bunny in the basket. The basket can be done in blue, pink or yellow. I have already hand cut out all the bunnies for you.
    This class is also offered on March 23 at 6:30. The cost for both classes is $13. If interested please RSVP so I can have enough product ready for everyone. Snacks will be provided as usual.


         I am also working on Easter projects that will be posted ASAP. They will be offered on March 22 at 7PM,  and after the March 23 classes, and March 24 at 1PM. I know you will like them.
        You can email me at scrappy55@msn.com to RSVP and get directions to my scraproom. Sure hope to see ya there.

January layout class and card class is scheduled

 
   Friday, January 20th at 6:30 PM will be a fun class. You have the opportunity to do 3 layouts. If you take as many photos as I do. Just one layout for Christmas pictures is not near enough. The first layout will be done in just a few minutes. All cutting will be done for you. In this layout you will stamp a few holly leaves and sentiment already precut with our exclusive Art Philosphy Cricut cartridge. You will do very little cutting- just the holly berries. This layout should be completed in a half hour or less.

 Layout # 2 is a little bit more challenging but fun. You can't see it well, but you use a glitter glue dotted all around the center cutout, and use ribbon and hemp around the trees. All the layouts  are using our Believe paper packs. The layout idea for this layout was seen by another consultant, Helen Onulak, on Pinterest. Then she used our paper to come up with this idea. You will use sponges to daub on the paper to make the sweet leaf paper look sort of like suede.
                                                                                                                                
Layout #3 is just the cutest. This layout idea is from our exclusive layout book Magic by Jeannette Lynton, the CEO of Close to my Heart. You may have seen this in the Fall/Winter idea book. I fell in love with this layout the minute I saw it. The layout demos the stickease that coordinate with the Believe paperpack.
By adding a few extra sheets of paper to the paper pack, I was able to make another layout using the back side of one of the Background and Texture papers. I have the perfect photos for this one, when two of my grandsons went to see Santa. Just by adding a few extra papers I was able to get 4 layouts from a paperpack and half a stickease packet.
    This class includes the first 3 layouts: #1 Holly leaves, #2 Trees, and #3 Celebrate the Season with the reindeer. The cost is $22. I have room for just 6 people for this class.  As usual at my classes- food and chocolate will be provided -- they are a must!!!!  You will need to bring your own adhesive. I always have give away gifts. So if  interested email me ASAP. scrappy55@msn.com. I need to know by January 14 so I can have everything precut for you by Jan 20th. I will give you directions when you email me. Hope to see you there!!!!!!!!!!

    The last layout #4, " I will always Believe" will only be available as an additional layout to 3-4 class participants for $10, because of the limited paper left over in the packs






Saturday, January 21 at 9:30 AM will be a card class. You will be using stamps, paper piercer, embellishments, and ribbon to create these cute cards: Birthday, Thinking of you, and Valentines. The cost is $9 for 5 cards and envelopes.  You do need to bring your own adhesive. There is no limit on this class, but again I need to know by January 14th, so I can have everything precut before the 21st. Snacks will be provided. And again, I always have give aways. Hope to see you at one or both classes. Email me at scrappy55@msn.com. I can give you directions.
