Snowman
I had fun creating this book and think you will enjoy it too! This album is filled with ten snowmen -- all different and very bright and cheery. Makes for a fun album for your favorite pictures. My idea was to make a non-traditional album so each page is unique and it just falls together. Some of the snowmen are embossed with lots of detail; if you do not want to emboss, then the class fee is increased by $10 (my fee for making all the snowmen for you)! You will need to bring: your regular class kit; crop-a-dile; Tea Dye ink pad and ink applicator (or your favorite brown ink); light box (if you have one - we can share the ones in the store); stylus; sander and adhesives to include: dry adhesive, pop, Zip Dry, Score-Tape 1/4" and 1/8". This class is offered on two dates (need only attend one): Friday, January 27 or Saturday, January 28 from 10:00 to 3:00. Fee: $46 but $56 if you want the snowmen made for you. Sueb  1202
