Avonlea Workshop

For my October Workshop we will be using the beautiful Avonlea Paper Pack. This is just one of my favorite papers in the new Fall/Winter Idea book. When the papers came out I knew it would go great with the pictures that I took when we went to the Southwick Zoo this summer. The browns, greens and blues went perfect with my outdoor photos.

In this workshop we will be using the new Parlor Velvet Rub-Ons and the Opaques Mocha Adhesive Gems. For the 2nd layout I used our 4x6 Flip Flaps to add an additional 8 photos to my layout. It was great to add the Flip Flaps to my layout so that I could add more photos to my album without creating additional pages.

I will be teaching this workshop on the following dates:
  • Thursday, October 4 at 7:00pm - RSVP and payment due by Tuesday, September 18
  • Friday, October 19 at 7:00pm - RSVP and payment due by Monday, Oct 1

Hi! I have been busy working on some upcoming projects that I wanted to share with you. This is the first of a series of workshops that I will be teaching at my home in addition to the monthly scrapbook layouts.

This project includes a pre-cut letter from the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge. You can add as many photos as you would like. Main photo can be 4x6 Vertical or Horizontal. Pictures inside the frame need to be 3x4 Vertical.
