Decorate a wooden shape from Letters by Janna. We have hearts and stars - you pick the size and shape! Bring yourself, and a photo (or two, if you choose) and we'll set you free with some of our favourites paints and papers and a helping hand! No project will look the same, and Lisa will be there every step of the way to show you some tips and tricks of her own!

January Classes

Since I'm off to a late start, there are only three classes on the board for this month. Next month I hope to have a lot of your suggestions to work with, and therefore a lot more classes!

A Year in MY Life
Date: Saturday the 24th
Time: 1 - 3 pm
Member's Cost: $21.75
Non-Members Cost: $25

This mini album/calendar is designed with YOU in mind. It's a place for you to scrapbook about yourself and what's going on in your life! Forget the kids, or the hubby, or the pets, or the grandkids for a minute and focus on the most important person in your life: YOU! In the class, we will complete the bare bones of the album with some embellishment, and you can take it home and add pictures and journaling as the year goes on. It's a great place to record your goals, accomplishments, special events, etc. that maybe wouldn't normally make it into your other scrapbooking!

Please have in mind the colour you want for your album when you sign up for the class. Here are your choices: green, burgundy/red, turquoise (as pictured), pink, or brown.

For this class you will need: trimmer, scissors, adhesive, black pen.
Optional: Liquid adhesive, glue dots, hole punch
All other supplies are provided.

Double or Nothin'
Date: Tuesday the 27th
Time: 7 - 8:30 pm
Member's Cost: $12.75
Non-Members Cost: $15

A great new "trend" in the scrapbooking world is creating one album with multiple sized layouts within it! This is great for people who like to scrapbook 8.5x11, 8x8, 6x6, 12x12, etc., but don't want to have separate albums for each size. What's even better is that there's a company that has made this totally possible with little extra effort...all you need is an American Crafts 12x2 D-ring album! Their page protectors come in a variety of sizes and the holes will always match up! It's a no-brainer!

In this layout class, we are creating a double-page layout with a twist: one page will be 12x12 and the other 6x12!! Crazy? I know! You get all the benefit of a double-page layout, but with a little added interest! Even if you don't normally scrap this way, it will sure get your creative juices flowing! And the new Rose Moka paper line, with a little Basic Grey and Hambly thrown in for good measure, is sure to impress! And if you're not keen on the 6x12 second page, you have the option of doing a second 12x12 layout!

For this class you will need: trimmer, scissors, adhesive.
All other supplies are provided.

For this class you will need: trimmer, scissors, adhesive, black pen
Optional: liquid adhesive, glue dots, hole punch
All other supplies are provided.

Some Input Please!

So I'm starting to look at New Classes for the New Year, and I would like your input in choosing what makes the cut!

Would you like to see more technique classes, like embossing, painting, stamping, etc.?

Or perhaps some classes based on a product line that you've seen in the store and really want to use on a layout? Like an all Heidi Swapp class, or Doodlebug, or Riff Raff Designs.

Or would you prefer just to have some nice layouts, with no theme in particular??

Please post a comment here or email me at lisakercher@gmail.com with any and all suggestions and ideas. I would really appreciate it! I'll go through the responses and have a February calendar up before you know it! That is, before January closes its doors!

Happy New Year!
Lisa
