All About Me Layouts
Do you shy away from creating pages about yourself? Many people do. They are so busy recording the events of their everyday lives that
they often forget that their legacy is an integral part of why we scrapbook
in the first place. Basic Grey has just the plan to get scrapbookers out
from behind the camera and front and center on their pages. Topics will include things like my circle of friends, a day in
my life, when I was a kid & more.
The theme for June is ‘empty nest’.
Maybe you’ve had a time when you’ve felt alone or missed something
very special to you. This class
will let you highlight that special moment in your life. Kits also available but must be
registered for before the start of class. In addition to your class kit
please bring scallop scissors, 2.5 inch circle punch, circle cutter and
self healing mat, craft knife, paper piercer or needle, and distress ink
(optional). 2 hours $19 (Sandra)
