New Classes at The Ink Pad!

I'll be teaching 2 classes at The Ink Pad in the coming months.  On Tuesday, March 20th (7:15-9:15 p.m.), I'll be teaching Scrapbook Layout Design.  Here is the class description:

Scrapbook Layout Design:  Have you ever wondered why certain colors go so well together, or why your eye is drawn to a particular page or design?  In this class, I will show you some of the building blocks of design, including color theory, balance, and the basic elements of a scrapbook page.  You will create a 1-page layout, so please bring three or four standard (4 x 6) photos with you.  You will also need:  double-sided adhesive/tape, a paper trimmer, a pencil, scissors, and a ruler.  This is a beginner class, but more advanced scrapbookers are also welcome. 

On Tuesday, April 17th (7:15-9:15 p.m.), I'll be teaching Stamping 101.  Here is the class description:

Stamping 101:  You’ve just bought some cool stamps (at The Ink Pad, of course).  You’ve even bought an inkpad or two.  You saw some gorgeous samples in the store.  Now what?  What do you do with all that stuff?  How do you begin?  Join me as I show you the basics of stamping:  which inks to use with which papers; how to get a clear, crisp impression; how to use rubber and unmounted stamps; and more.   No experience or supplies necessary.(I'll be posting the photo soon.)

Class Photos and Details

Here are the details and photos for the classes I will be teaching at Not Just Scrap in Centereach (Long Island), NY.  I'm so excited!!!
 Summer Fun Layout - Sunday, June 26, 1:00-3:00 p.m. 

In this class,  I will show you how to create a fun 2-page layout using your favorite summer photos.  You’ll need to bring four to six 4 x 6 photos with you.  If you don’t have the photos yet, don’t worry.  The pages can be completed just fine without them.  You will also need your basic class kit, a pencil, a good eraser, and a journaling pen.  Beginners are welcome, but you should have some experience using a paper trimmer.

"De-Stressed" Backgrounds Card Class - Sunday, July 10, 1:00-3:00 p.m.

In this class, you will make four stunning distressed background cards suitable for all occasions.  Using Tim Holtz’s Distress Inks, a few background stamps, and your imagination, you will see how easy it is to use the “coolest” inks on the market.  Bring your basic class kit.  Beginners are welcome.

Scrapbook Layout Design I - Saturday, July 16, 2:00-4:00 p.m.

Have you ever wondered why certain colors go so well together, or why your eye is drawn to a particular page or design?  In this class, you will learn some of the building blocks of design, including color theory, balance, and the basic elements of a scrapbook page.  You will also create a 1-page layout, so please bring three 4 x 6 landscape photos with you.  This is a beginner class, but more advanced scrapbookers are also welcome.
