Double Slider Album pictures

Here are some pictures of what we are making in the upcoming class on Feb 19/10. This little album is gorgeous, and cool too...you may select your colors (paper) and theme to make it your own. It can hold as many as 19-21 pictures. Perfect for a Mothers Day gift, or an album of a recent vacation...or photo shoot with the kids, like mine:-)

Slider Album - Feb Class

When: Friday, Feb 19th
Time: 7pm - 10pm
Where: my home

It's time to get back together for some crafting now that the holiday season is behind us!

I thought we would kick off the year by making a photo album (would be a great Mothers Day gift, or a wonderful coffee table album of a recent vacation etc)...it's called a Double-Slider Album, and it holds about 19 to 21 pictures. (I purchased these instructions from another SU demonstrator that invented it. I did not come up with this on my own, but it's ingenious!) Take a look at the pics, it's really cool! (it flips over and hold more on the back side too) The neat thing about it too, is it can be made and then decorated/pictures placed in at a later time, it doesn't have to be totally completed all at the same time.

Instead of just charging a cost for the class, as I normally do, this one will be a little different! It might be a little more money than you are used to a class being, BUT you will come away with lots of stuff that is yours to keep! Here is the breakdown of the things you will purchase (and use to build your album...obviously there will be lots of leftovers, we aren't using an entire pack of paper etc.):

Your choice of: 1 pack of SU cardstock (24 sheets) = 5.50
Your choice of : 1 pack of SU Designer Series Paper (12 double sided sheets) = 9.95
1 roll of Sticky Strip = 6.95
& 7.60 to cover the additional paper, buttons, embellishments & ribbon needed for each project. I will make sure that I have all the coordinating colors to match your paper selections.
You will also get printed instructions on how to recreate the album on your own at home.
TOTAL COST = $30
Again, although that sounds pricey, keep in mind of all the things you will have leftover to play with at home! Also bear in mind that I am not charging shipping or tax for these orders. So it's a really good deal!

If you have a Catalog, check out the paper choices, or click here http://www.stampinup.com/us/enu/16192.asp and download the catalog (2009/10 Idea Book & Catalog). Cardstock colors start on page 157-159. Designer Paper starts on page 162 - 165.

So you can make your paper selections based on your idea for a theme for the album. Having pictures with you at class is not necessary, but it's ok to bring them if you have them ready!

I will need an rsvp by about the 3rd of Feb, to give me time to get the order in and delivered in time for the class! I will be likely be opening your cardstock package ahead of the class and pre-cutting a few things for you to save on time.

WHAT TO BRING:
Regular tape runner adhesive - required
BRING IF YOU HAVE: - will save you time on sharing
Paper Cutter
Scissors
Cropadile

In addition to the class, I would just like to make you all aware of SU's annual Sale-a-bration sale, happening now through March. This means for every $50 of product you purchase, you get something from the sale-a-bration catalog for free! (mostly stamp sets, but there are some other things available too). There is no limit to the free items (ie: $100 order = 2 free things). Click the link I referrenced above and download the pink s.a.b. catalog to see the free choices!!

I mention this now, as some of you have mentioned placing an order during s.a.b. to get some extra stuff free...if you place your order by the 3rd with your rsvp, I will combine the 22.40 you are already spending towards the items for the class. So you would just have to make up the difference, and also, only pay shipping & taxes on the portion of your order beyond the 22.40 (if that makes sense? Ask me if not!!)...so it's a pretty good deal!! Please ask me if something is not clear and I will attempt to clarify!

If you are not able to attend the class on the 19th, but still want in on this deal, RSVP and tell me you want to do it, but can't make that date. I will get you all your supplies and the directions to make it on your own etc. Cost would remain at $30.

It's going to be FUN!! Can't wait to see you all again and Stamp-em-up!
