Instructor: Carren, Crops Plus. To sign up please email Carren at cropsplus@ourcropsplus.com


Have you ever looked at a new paper line and thought to yourself "Where do I start?" Do you buy only kits because you know that the papers already match and you don't have to think about it? Would you like to learn how to expand the use of your current stash AND shop smarter?

This class will teach you all that! We will go over basic design principles that will show you how to use patterned papers and designs within a collection so that your pages are pleasing to the eye. Also, we will learn how to mix and match papers from different collections so you don't have to buy whole kits when you only like a few papers! This will open up a world of possibilities for you! 

We will learn all these design principles and then using your new-found skills and provided page maps, you will lay out the foundation for making two 12x12 layouts. 

You will receive FOUR full paper packs. Two 12x12 paper kits, one 6x6 paper pack and a Project Life value kit, all so that you can continue to experiment and make cards and layouts. That's $45 in product!

Class size is limited to 8, so if you are interested, register now!
