Make And Take Day

Maresa will be demonstrating the popular Big Shot machine, along with the embossing folders, Nestabilities, dies and embossing plates.

Mother's Day Circle Flip-up Album, with Maresa





Come to class and learn how to make this nifty album! This is truly a unique mini album, and it's simple design can be adapted to any occasion. This cheery album has been designed using BoBunny Alissa and Double Dot papers. Chalk full of added details, it is the perfect gift for the special Mom[s] in your life. It's large enough to include several photos, but small enough that you won't have to spend an unreasonable amount of time creating another one on your own. This album would make an awesome Brag Book. :)

Bring 3-4 photos to class, please.
