January Workshop Leftovers


Here are the additional projects I made with the supplies I had leftover from my Emporium paper packet and Emporium My Stickease that are used in the January workshop.

January Workshop


I hope everyone can join me for what I hope will be the first of many workshops. I will be hosting a workshop at my house on Friday January 23 at 6:30pm. We will be making a 2 page layout using the Emporium Level 2 Paper Packet and Emporium My Stickease from Close to my Heart. After making the layout, participants will have lots of leftover paper and cardstock stickers that they can use to make addtional layouts and cards. I put together the layout that we'll be doing at the workshop and was able to make two more 2 page layouts plus three cards with the leftovers, and I still have paper and stickers left!!! How awesome is that?!?! The picture at the top of this post is of the layout we will be doing. Look for a seperate post showing all of the things I made with the leftovers! This workshop will teach you a beautiful brayer edging technique (that I've fallen in love with BTW) and the rock and roll stamping technique. The cost for the workshop will be $25. All participants will receive 10% off of any order they make the night of the workshop. Reservations must be made by Monday January 12 in order to allow time for me to get enough supplies for everyone. Please contact me by phone or email to reserve your spot, hurry space is limited!!! If more people are interested than space allows I will consider booking a 2nd date. If you are interested in the workshop but are unavailable on the 23rd, please let me know and I will notify you should I book a 2nd date.
