Join Sherry in her Newest BYOP Workshop!

"BYOP Folio Album"
The Next in the Series of BYOP Workshops
from Sherry Bamsey
Tuesday ~ August 29, 2017
10:00am – 4:00pm
Cost:  $20.00


We have only a few seats left!

Join Sherry as she joins the folio madness craze in the next Workshop of her BYOP Series.  This is a quick and easy project that is perfect for those times when you have a limited number of photos.  Makes perfect little gifts for family and friends, especially for family members who may be in care facilities or rehab units. All the necessary materials to build a basic folio will be supplied in your project kit, ready for you to decorate with your favorite patterned paper.  Your finished folio will be 8″ x 5-1/2″ with a 6 page waterfall with space to hold 12 4” x4”photos.  Your folio will feature 2 booklet type flaps designed to hold 4 4”x4’ photos.  To decorate your finished folio, you’ll need at least 10-12 sheets of your favorite 12″x12″ papers (paper used in samples are Echo Park’s new collection, “Just Be You”, Photo Play “Matilda and Godfrey", and Photo Play “Falling Leaves”).  As with all of Sherry's exciting Workshops, you'll want to make your reservations early because seats sell out fast and this one is no exception!






Supplies to Bring:  Basic Craft Kit (BCK), including craft sheet; paper trimmer; scissors; ScorTape (3/8″ & 1/4”); your favorite wet adhesive; tape runner; Crop-A-Dile; corner rounder; SCOREBOARD; bone folder; and your favorite pattern papers for decorating (see above).  All other supplies and materials will be supplied.

(Sample photos shown decorated for purposes of possible finishes only)

New BYOP from Sherry!

"BYOP Mini Easel Album"
The Newest Workshop from Sherry Bamsey
Saturday ~ March 11, 2017
10:00am – 4:00pm
Cost:  $30.00


Join Sherry for another adventure in this new and unique concept in mini album construction and design!  All the chipboard and cardstock necessary to complete your basic easel album will be supplied in your project kit and you’ll decorate with your favorite patterned paper.  Your finished easel album will be 7-1/2″ x 6″ with 4 doubled-sided chipboard pages that flip over the spiral binding, giving you a total of 8 pages to add your photos and treasured memories.  When completed, your album will have pockets, flaps, and waterfall features, and when not in use, can be displayed upright or folded flat for storage.  To decorate your finished album, you’ll need at least 6-10 sheets of your favorite 12″ x 12″ papers.  Paper pads such as those from Graphic 45, DCWV, Paper Studio, or individual sheets of your favorite pattern papers work best.  (Sherry used the beautiful new collection from KaiserCraft, “A Cherry Tree Lane”, to construct the sample album)  Anyone wishing to use the same papers Sherry used in creating her sample album, let us know when making your reservation to ensure you’ll have everything you need (you’ll also receive a discount!).  As with all of Sherry’s exciting Workshops, you’ll want to make your reservations early because SEATING IS LIMITED TO 8 students only, and seats are beginning to fill already!  Call to save your space before it sells out!
