Sneak Peek 4- Elle's Studio 2014 Mini Album

I feel like the luckiest girl in Sammamish- I have Elle from Elle's Studio coming to teach a class for the October Workshop Weekend.

I am so excited, secretly I was hoping she would use the new 2014 collection and guess what- SHE IS!

You attendees are so lucky too- it is so brand new that most stores don't even have it on their shelves yet. If you are signed up for this class you will need to bring 12- 4x6 photos, one for each month to complete this fantastic mini.

I am in the process of getting the pricing and registration updated so if you want to sign up for just a few classes, or just Saturday or just Sunday you will be able to.

If you want to reserve a guest room at the hotel, Oct 1st is the last day they will honor our special room rate. For more information visit the hotel information page on our site.

Happy Scrapping!

Sneak Peek 3- Library Tray with 4 Mini Albums

Oh what fun this project is! 4 different mini albums in a fantastic 7 Gypsies library tray!

This album is full of hand folded vellum pockets and some great embellished insert cards. This album is all made from scratch- such a cool technique!

This one is an album made of shipping tags, altered, covered, embellished, embossed, inked and into fun little pieces of art.

Album number 3 is an accordion album of pockets made from one sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock! The covers are cool embossed metal that I used alcohol ink, paint and sandpaper to distress. This one is messy but fun!

Album 4 is a custom created canvas cover with stencils and ink. The book is all handmade and hand bound and then the pages are bound with stab stitches (that sounds so gruesome doesn't it?) and then we will finish this off with some fun embellishments.


This class will be Saturday October 19th, 9 am- Noon. To sign up for this fun Workshop Weekend visit our Fall Workshop Page.

More Sneak Previews for October Workshop Weekend

Here is the 16x20 Frame project made with a different collection, the Simple Stories Urban Traveler.


I also used Tim Holtz Distress Ink to color the canvas.

I made some custom die cuts for this version, a luggage tag photo frame and a suitcase.




I love the way this turned out. Sorry the photos are a bit wonky. To register for this event visit the Workshop Page on our website.
Happy Scrapping!
