Gratitude Album • 9-12
So excited to head back to EVER AFTER to teach again. I am doing a GRATITUDE project on Sat. November 7th at the store. I think it is one of my ALL TIME favorite class projects EVER---- This is all about your GRATITUDE. I decided to document my feelings, thoughts and family for 2009. Perfect for November and the time to reflect upon our thankfulness and blessings. I used so much product in this book. I think I put about five different collections in one book. I love to mix and match...PLUS, I added TWO of the new T-DROPS (red) and the LARGE clear GEMS. Lots of transparencies too- I added a special section for Matt and Kayla and how grateful I am that they found each other. This is GENTRY- she is now a SENIOR- I am feeling sad at the thought of her going to college next year, so I journaled my thoughts in this project.It's all about REMEMBERING our gratitude and the things that matter most to us. This project will be full of art from the soul. So bring photos of people or things that you want to document. I know it's important to REMEMBER and document the simple things- so come join me!!!!!
*6x12- DOCUMENTATION TRANSPARENCY * *1-4 pm*
Come get your bling on with the one and only Teresa Collins. This one-of-a-kind, all-new designed 6x12 book starts with a glittered cover and then it's just transparent throughout, that Teresa's style is like no other. This class will help take the fear out of using transparency.

Using the latest and greatest T-Gems and T-Drops make this project sparkle!!!! The theme of this book is DOCUMENTING...What story do you want to document? Using only 4x6 photos, bring 30 of your favorite 4x6 photos. Please bring them in both vertical and horizontal orientation! (Teresa's project sample is in black and white with a white border edge). This book is stunning and will grab the attention of anyone who sees it! Dare I say that it is breathtaking? Join worldwide scrapbook industry star Teresa Collins for this breathtaking book!
