2 Double Layouts using Flip Flaps Class

Class: "10 Things I am Thankful for" 2 Double Layouts
Date: Saturday, November 5th
Time:
3:30-5:00pm
Class Fee: $37.50
Workshop Taught by: Barb Carrico ~ Close To My Heart

As we approach Thanksgiving, we are always reminded of the many things we are THANKFUL for... Here's your opportunity to add them to your scrapbooks!

In this workshop, you will create 2 complete double layouts, and with using CTMH's AWESOME Flip Flaps, they will only take up the space of one double layout! AND you will have enough product left over to create some Thanksgiving cards, or another layout!
























This is the main layout




























This is opening the right page of the main layout













This is the 2nd layout - held inside Flap Flaps


If you would like to finish these layouts during the Crops Plus weekend, you will need to make a list of "10 individual things you are Thankful for", and also print out photos in the follow sizes to coordinate with the list:
1 - 5"x7" <->
5 - 4"x4"
1 - 4"x6" <->
3 - 3"x3"
1 - 3"x4" <->
2 - 4"x4"

Yes, there are 13 pictures and only 10 "THINGS", but I just put multiple pictures of our family members down and only marked 1 with the actual NUMBER... Hope this helps for your planning purposes!

  • Cutter


  • Scissors


  • Adhesive
