Scrapbook Album in a
Sewing Machine Drawer
-
JUST ADDED
I finally found enough antique sewing drawers and
embellishments to create an album in an old treadle sewing
machine drawer! You will find all kinds of nostalgia --
cafeteria tickets; bingo cards; checkers; dominoes; match books;
earrings (yes, earrings); lace; scissors, rulers; keys; playing
cards; etc. Basically, we will making tags from chipboard and
Graphic 45's Old Curiosity Shoppe paper line using the old
embellishments listed above. There are no difficult techniques
-- I'd say it is simplistic but full of character! Come see it
-- I know you will enjoy owning or giving this album as a gift.
You will need to come in anyway to pick a sewing machine drawer
(to take home and clean and bring to class) -- cost of drawers
range from $7-10; this cost is in addition to the class fee
($75). The drawers are old and not in perfect condition.
I have 14 drawers; 7 are wood finished and 3 are white-washed
for the shabby chic look (you can always white-wash yourself?).
You will need to bring: drawer; regular class kit; black ink
pad and applicator; and the following adhesives: dry; foam; Zip
Dry; Scor-Tape; glue stick with brayer -- I used glue stick
for this whole project with very little running tape. I used
about 1-1/2 sticks of Uhu -- really saved on the running tape!
Kits are allowed but no instructions or pictures.........you
will need to borrow my sample which I loan out by order/date you
register or you can come take pictures after/during the class.
Class is offered Saturday, June 16 or Tuesday, June 19
from 9:00am to 5:00pm Fee: $75 Instructor: Sueb

Boys and their Toys
When I saw the new Bo-Bunny "On the Go" paper, I just had to
make an album for my grandson. When finished, I liked the paper
even more and thought you might also? So I am offering it as a
class but want you to know that it makes for a nice kit too! I
used a 9x9 Bo-Bunny album that contains six double sided
chipboard pages plus the two sides of both the front and back
covers -- plenty of room for pictures! I also used Bo-Bunny's
ready-made chipboard and stickers plus their metal and button
collection. Think you will like this colorful album with
trains, planes, cars and anything else that goes "Beep"! So why
not check out this album in the store and either sign-up for the
class or request a kit. Included in the price is a Tim Holtz
"Rusty Hinge" ink pad -- you just need your class kit and
adhesives (dry; pop, 1/4" Scor or Red-Line tape; and a glue
stick with brayer). Classes are offered Friday, May 25 or
Saturday, May 26 9:00am to 5:00pm. Fee: $80 class; $85 kit;

Unique Memo Board
Spend a fun afternoon creating a unique magnetic memo board with
magnets to match. You can use it for notes, calendars,
scrapbook ideas, or pictures that make you happy. I’m going to
use mine to hold all my Sizzix Movers & Shapers dies so I’ll
be able to see them all at once as I plan a scrapbook page. It
is easy to make. You don’t need a lot of special tools and once
you learn the technique you’ll be able to make memo boards for
children’s rooms, gifts, your office, etc. You are limited only
by the available scrapbook paper. Let’s face it, there is
always more scrapbook paper that you’d love to use, so join us
for a fun and productive afternoon. In addition to the basic
class kit, students will need to bring Wonder Tape (1/4” or
1/8”), bottle of Glossy Accents, and a glue stick. If you have a
Crop-a-dile, you’ll want to bring that too. If you don’t have
all of these supplies you’ll be able to buy them at the store
the day of the class. Sunday, May 6th 1:00-4:00pm.
