July Scrapbooking Workshop - Thursday 22nd at 7pm

We're looking forward to our next Scrapbooking Workshop this Thursday 22nd July at 7pm in Whitehall Parish Centre, Dublin 9 and thought you might like to see a couple of sneak peeks (I am soooo loving those Cuttlebug Cut & Emboss Butterfly dies):

Sneak Peek 1Sneak Peek 2

At this month's class we're using the new Cosmo Cricket Delovely Collection to create a gorgeous scrapbook layout perfect for black and white or colour photos.  We used photos of a child for our layout but as the theme is open you can use whatever photos you think suit the colours.

The Workshop is suitable for all levels of papercrafter and you'll need to bring:

  • a sharp scissors
  • a paper trimmer
  • acid free glue (for paper)
  • a white gel pen and a black felt tip pen (we have them on sale in the shop too)

We used three 4" x 6" portrait format photos (the size includes a white border) but you could just use two if you prefer.

For anyone who's never been to a Workshop before, we'll explain the format:

7.00pm - 7.15pm Registration/Shopping

7.15pm - 8.15pm Workshop Part 1

8.15pm - 8.30pm Break for tea/coffee and home-baking

8.30pm - 9.30pm Workshop Part 2

9.30pm - 9.45pm Time to tidy up your crop space, Workshop complete!

During both parts of the Workshop, Annamarie will give you step by step instructions and one-to-one guidance through the techniques involved in creating the layouts. You don't need to bring photos with you as these can be added at a later stage but if you think you have suitable photos then of course bring them with you.

The Workshop costs €25.00 and includes 1.5 hours tuition, a kit containing all the papers and cardstock embellishments, refreshments and home baking.

Places can be booked by emailing workshops@thescrapbookstore.ie or telephoning/texting 086-2065346.

Looking forward to seeing you there,
