It's Free Magazine Time!

Hi Everyone,


I'm traveling to Chantilly to attend Great American Scrapbook Convention for a couple of days.  If you see me at the show, remind me to give you a coupon to use at the store when you get home.   We just received an order of the New Memory Box Dies that include a palm tree and hibiscus.  Of course, we also got some more window dies, shutters and screen doors.   We received some new MFT Stamps, Graphic 45 Ladies Diary and Echo Park chipboard albums.   

It's Free magazine Time!

Just make a $40 pre-tax purchase of merchandise and get this great magazine for free, while supplies last.

In this issue, there are fabulous articles on:

Memories of the Beach Canvas flip book $49 (3 hours)


(photo coming soon!)


Photos, shells, sand and memories of a special beach excursion, cruise, island
getaway or just some summer fun are the makings for a special keepsake! In this
very mixed media canvas book you will learn some fun techniques that you will be
able to carry on in to future projects as well. We will be playing with paint mediums,
mists, glazes, modeling paste, inks, stamps, screens, UTEE and much more
during class. The 8 inch square canvases will be “hinged” using a unique binding
technique. The inside will utilize the negative space with dimensional elements
hidden behind additional chipboard panels and pages that will flip out…this is one
not to miss!!
**please bring to class a small hammer and any special shells or sand you may want
to incorporate (I will have some small shells in class as well)
