Class time!

My house is being overtaken by kits that are packed and ready to box up and ship across the country and across the ocean very soon. I still have eight huge boxes of product that are still to be delivered this week - it's crazy-time!

I thought it might be a good time to update everyone on my upcoming classes and schedule...

This coming weekend, March 1 and 2, I'm going to be at The Crafty Scrapper in Waxahachie, Texas. Those kits - all 200 pounds of them - have already been shipped. Some of the classes are sold out for the seats IN the class but you can also just get a class kit, if you want. All kits come with the directions and color photos of each page. I'm teaching the "A Good Year" planner/scrapbook class (for the last time I think although I still have a handful of kits left), the Celebrate Every Day album class, and the Little Golden Seashore book there.

The Celebrate Every Day class is just about done being taught - only two more stores and Paris for this class - and I'm down to the very last of the kits, so if you want one, be sure to contact either The Crafty Scrapper or Memories Live On to get one.

I just love the Seashore book and can't wait to add my own photos!

I'll be home for just one day before I head to the West Coast and teach at Memories Live On in Cupertino, California. I'm teaching the Celebrate Every day album, the Little Golden Seashore book, and debuting a new class - the #bigideas #smallalbums class.

I just LOVE this new class - I had so much fun because I just couldn't resist starting to add my own photos to the book. We are using a new WeR Memory Keepers "instagram" album, but that doesn't mean you have to do instagram or have instagram photos to use this book - you can crop any photo to 4x4 or smaller to fit in this book. Plus, I'm doing it as kind of an "encyclopedia" of ideas of ways to add more photos to pages - no two ideas are repeated in this album. I think the class is worth it just for the ideas you'll get - all in one book - to use for ANY size book. Just check out this side view...

That's a lot of pages! Plus, since we're using 12x12 paper to make these little pages, you'll go home with a ton of product left over. Love that!

I'll be home for about four days before I head down south to St. Petersburg, Florida, to teach on March 21 and 22, at Whim So Doodle. I'm teaching two classes there but repeating one of them twice because we want to be able to accommodate everyone who wants to come to class - it's your only chance to take this class in Florida! The Little Golden Seashore book will be taught Friday night AND Saturday afternoon. On Saturday morning I'll be teaching the #bigideas #smallbooks album with all it's chunky goodness! :)

I'll be home then for just three days before I head to Paris, France, to teach at Version Scrap, on April 4, 5, and 6. I'm teaching five classes in Paris... the Travel Girl (My Great Adventure) album, the Memory Collector project, the sweet Little Me album, the Little Golden Seashore book, and the Celebrate Every Day album. These are the exact same class kits as my US classes, so you know they have lots of products in them! I'm so looking forward to seeing so many friends there - it will be my fifth year teaching at this event!

In June I'll be in Illinois two weekends in a row but at stores far enough apart that people from different parts of the state can come to class - on June 20 and 21 in Moline at The Scrapbooking Studio for the first time, and on June 27 and 28, I'll be returning to CraftFancy in Arlington Heights, near Chicago. I'll be teaching the same three classes at both stores - the Little Golden Seashore book, the #bigideas #smallbooks album, and a third new class that I'll be designing in May - by then the newest product from CHA SHOULD be available! :)

In July I'll be teaching these same three classes at Paper Crown in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - I can't wait to return there and see everyone again! This store is worth making a girl's weekend of it - come and play for the weekend!

I'm still waiting to confirm dates for Southern California, here in Buffalo, and maybe even in Barcelona, Spain or in Italy - we'll see! I have a very limited number of open dates, so if you have a local store where you would like me to teach my classes, have the store contact me, and we can see if we can find a date!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your support - I am truly blessed and love what I do - even though it does make my head spin sometimes!

(By the way, I used the Random Number Generator to choose a number to win the prize on Sunday night and it chose #10! I've already contacted Judy, who was the winner, and she'll be getting her goodies this week. Thank you for commenting there!) I hope to see lots of you along the way! :)

I think the Big Ideas album will be a winner. I can't wait to see what else you come up with once the CHA product is available. YOu are going to have some fun times coming up.

So glad that in the midst of all the packing, unpacking, traveling and teaching you will be able to have your OWN Day at the Seashore in FL!

Illinois! But you need to head south. Way south!
