Merry Christmas!!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and that the holidays have been good to you.

Latest News

Amy & I held the 3rd and final class of the Moments Captured series Saturday at Scrapbook Daisies.  We created September, October, November, December and a closing page.  It sure feels great to have an album for the entire year.  Now all I have to do is get caught up and add my photos and journaling through August.   If you began this series with us, or purchased the first 2 kits and missed the class, no worries.  You can call Tony to purchase it at Scrapbook Daisies - 562-377-0302.

Our Final Class of the Year

Christmas

We've planned our last class of the year at Scrapbook Daisies as our Christmas album.  We will be using the Handmade Holiday line from Simple Stories.  And the album we will use is their new Snap album in red.  We hope you love this line as much as we do.

 

 

The date of the class is Saturday, November 10th from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM.  The cost will be $38. 

 
If the summer album is any indication of sales, you should call and sign up as soon as possible since it will probably sell out.  There is no sample in the store yet, as we are waiting on the albums to be shipped, but those of you that have taken classes from us in the past know Amy's style by now.  We'll try to get the sample to the store by the end of October (providing we get the albums in a timely manner).

Hello Summer 2012 - updated

It's official - summer is here.  And Amy & I wanted to update you on our next class.  We will be teaching at Scrapbook Daisies in Long Beach on July 28 (Saturday) from 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM.  The sample is already at the store, so stop by and give it a peek.  The cost is $38.

Say hello to the summer of 2012 and celebrate with this 6x8 binder from Simple Stories.  There is room for over 6 -3x4,3 -4x4, 22 -4x6, 3 -5x7, and 6 -6x8 photos in this album.  That's 40 photos.  There are page protectors left so you can always add more if you like.  The mixed page protectors give you plenty of room for photos and embellishments of various sizes and we've included lots of cute die-cuts to help fill them as well.

Included in this kit:

• the 6x8 Simple Stories album that comes with 3 Kraft dividers, mix and match divider page protectors, and album pages
• another package of the 6x8 page protectors
• a set of the memorabilia pockets to hold more of your treasures from the summer
• Teresa Collins Everyday Moments collection pack
• Teresa Collins Everyday Moments buttons
• Teresa Collins Everyday Moments chipboard elements
• Teresa Collins Everyday Moments layered stickers
• Blue cardstock
• Yellow cardstock
• Clear bling
• Twine
• Buttons
• Various other die-cuts

What you will need to put this album together:

Adhesive (tape runner and wet glue)

Glossy Accents (holds the buttons the best)

Scissors

Pop Dots

White paper or cardstock to make photo mats with for ease of assembly - there are 2 -4x6 and 3 -5x7 mats that you should bring with you to class

As with all our kits, the pages and embellishments have been pre-cut, stamped, and then organized in the order they will be used in the album (for ease in assembly) so be careful when removing them from the packaging.  And they include both photos and written instructions.

We look forward to seeing you in class.  If you can't make the class, but would like to order a kit, either email me direct (sallybasiliere@dareyousayit.com) or call Tony at Scrapbook Daisies (562/377-0302) to sign up.

WHAT???? No photos?

We had the best group of ladies in our Celebrate Spring 2012 class today.  They were amazing!!!  Amy brought Krispy Kreme doughnuts and I brought mini sized spice cupcakes with cream cheese frosting so we had plenty of sugar to keep us going.  But did I think to take any photos???  Oops.

So how about a picture of a cute pooch to make up for it?  LOL

I have 2 of the Celebrate Spring 2012 kits left if anyone would like to purchase one.  They are $38 plus shipping.  If you are local to Long Beach, I can always meet you to save you the postage.  Just email me at sallybasiliere@dareyousayit.com if you are interested.

More photos of Celebrate Spring 2012

Amy posted some more photos of the Celebrate Spring 2012 class on her Abstracts mixed with extracts blog, so I (with her permission) copied them over here for your viewing pleasure. 

If you aren't local but would like to order a kit the cost is $38 plus shipping and handling.  You can email me at the address on the right side.  All class kits come pre-cut, pre-stamped and in the order of assembly.

Here are some peeks at the album:

 

Celebrate Spring 2012

As the school year winds down and summer is on the horizon we are celebrating Spring 2012 with a brand new class. This class includes a mini album unlike any we have made before. It is so thick that we had to use 2" book rings to bind it.  Amy & I would like to invite you to celebrate spring with us!

Create this super thick, colorful mini album that will hold over thirty of your favorite spring photos.  We will be teaching it at Scrapbook Daisies this Saturday (May 19) from 10AM - 1 PM.  The cost is $38.

 This class will teach you to use resist canvas, mist, use embossing powder on die cuts, watercolor with ink and more.

As usual, our class kits are packed full of product. This kit includes: the full Lily Bee Buttercup line (paper, journaling cards, stickers, embellishments, you get it all!), a full package of Prima's resist canvas, a full package of Pink Paislee's mistable ribbon, two full packages of bling, die cuts, tags, and more! All class kits will be pre-cut and in order,  with a lot of the misting and stamping pre-done so you can focus on creating your album. 

What you will need to put this album together:
Adhesive (tape runner and wet glue)
Ranger Glossy Accents (holds the canvas embellishments the best)
Hole Punch for the binding
Scissors
Paper trimmer
Pop Dots
White paper or cardstock to make photo mats with (you will need this to complete some of the pages)

We will also provide some yummy treats to keep you going!

If you are unable to attend class, kits will be available for purchase starting on May 19th at 10 AM.

Call or come by the store (sample is in the store for your viewing pleasure) to reserve your spot or kit today! 

Hope to see you in class! 

2012 Moments Captured

Amy was busy last week finishing up the designs, and I've been working all week kitting our 2nd class kit of this series.  We're teaching it this Sunday from 10AM - 1PM at Scrapbook Daisies.  The new time was requested by people according to Tony.  (I have heard from several of you that Sunday mornings are a bad time, so in the future, we will be sure to teach in the afternoon only on Sundays.)  There is a class that starts at 1:30 so unfortunately, we have to be out of there right on time.  But as with all our kits, we have both written and photo directions.  And if you are a "hands on" type person, just let me know when you will be at Daisies and I can drop off my pages with Tony and you can use them there to work on your pages. 
If you can't make the class, but would like a kit, just call Tony to reserve one.  You can pick them up starting Sunday.  If you missed the first class, but would like a kit, email me and I can either bring it with me on Sunday or mail it to you.
We used the Lily Bee Handmade collection kit and some of the Double Dutch pages as well, along with cardstock, bling, and twine for these pages.  This class includes April, May, June, July and August. 

Here's a little sneak peek of a couple of the pages:

Hope to see you tomorrow.
