Scrapbook Class

Last month I held a scrapbook class and these were a few of the layouts from that class that I liked best:

August workshops continued

This is the last batch of my August workshop projects. It's ironic--I've had these projects finished for weeks and yesterday morning I walked into church and the praise and worship team/choir's outfit color palette were these EXACT colors: Wild Wasabi, Tempting Turquoise, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White! I couldn't believe it--it made me smile...and then I thought how obsessed I must be that the first thing I associate when I see colors are the names of our color palette. ;) I know I'm not the only out there who does this, am I right? :D

The first image was my first Demo-clean and simple, to show guests how easy stamping is so that anyone can do it! Then I Demo'd the coordinating 3D Matchbox treat box, made using the Big Shot.

Finally, I showed finished projects: a stepped up card and coordinating scrapbook layout, for those who aren't as interested in card making.

Coming up with the color palette for these layouts was a cinch using our marvelously re-designed color coach.

Just Believe Workshop Projects

Yesterday I showed you the simple Make-n-Take card and the stepped up version for the "Just Believe" projects that I've used at my August workshops. Today I will feature the 3D Fancy Favor treat box and scrapbook layout that I created to coordinate with the cards.

The Fancy Favor box was so simple to create in mere minutes using my favorite friend, the Big Shot. It's the perfect little goody box to hold treats, money, jewelry, gift cards, etc.

The scrapbook layout uses pictures of me and my friends from Convention last year: Nikki Bond, (me), Amy LaSpisa, Deidre Mooney (my upline), Marci Horn, and Claudia Perry.

To take the layout up a notch, I used the Color Spritzer Tool to add some interest in the background. Now, I'll be honest, I have a love/hate relationship with my Color Spritzer Tool--the first few weeks that I had it, I couldn't get the silly thing to work! I was so frustrated because I'd seen so many other Demos using it and the effect was so darn cool! So low-and-behold one of the Make-n-Takes at convention required the use of the silly Color Spritzer Tool. Thankfully, my new friends showed me that I just have to squeeze the tool a little harder to get the ink to spray! Of course, it was user error and now I just love it! :) Such a cool effect...
