Do y'all remember my very first and only Yoda! Melanie Bruner from Knoxville. She is the one who called me on the phone when I was in North Carolina and told me that Ranger was looking to have a Design Team and I should submit.
Opps but let me not digress...
Melanie called me on the phone and said "Bring your butt to Knoxville and teach a class in the store!" Well in Yoda speak that translates to "You better come and if you don't I am ..." well I will let you fill in the blanks.
So, t is official!!
I made up a set of classes and I am taking them on the road.
On June 26th and 27th I will be at Scrapbooks and More in Knoxville. This is my first stop in a series during the summer. I have decided to take the South by storm.
So come and hang out with me!! A good time is going to be had by all.

Tattered Angels has outdone themselves with this great gate album! You’ll learn to tap your deeper emotions and create a vivid travelogue for yourself or as a gift. You will be misting, masking, embossing, and stamping to create this unique one of a kind journal.
This journal has limitless possibilities. There are tags that flip out to the side. You will create pocket pages and learn how to add lines by stamping and inking. We will also be using two mystery techniques. You will have a place for all of your photos and journaling.

The Other ATC - Acrylic Trading Cards
These mini pages make the perfect Acrylic Trading Card In this FAST PACED mini-class, you will learn how to stamp on, add collage images, staple through, sew into and transfer images onto acrylic.
By combining one or more of these quick and easy techniques you can add layers and texture to your projects. I will also share the ins and outs of how to work with other types of mixed media junkets on acrylic.
At the end of the hour you will have three beautiful little works of art that are worthy of being traded.
Crazy for Clear!
I must be crazy!!! You will be able to fit 10 – count them with me 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 -10 – photos on this clear mini album.
Clear is one of the hottest items in scrapbooking. We see it everywhere. It is cut into fun shapes and used to make quirky embellishments. You can ink it, stamp it, rub on it, and add embellishments that hang off the edge. Of these, stamping is my favorite.
You will need to bring at least 10 wallet size photos that can be cropped to fit. When you are finished, you will be Crazy for Clear!
