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!

Supplies to Bring:  Basic Craft Kit (BCK), including craft sheet; paper trimmer; scissors; ScorTape (3/8″); your favorite wet adhesive; tape runner; Crop-A-Dile; corner rounder; SCOREBOARD; bone folder; and your favorite pattern papers for decorating (see above).  This album also uses a lot of ScorTape, so be sure to have plenty on hand.  Optional Supplies:  Cinch Machine (not necessary, but if you have one, it would help time wise!)

beautiful album justice . . .
