Graphic 45 layout class by Katie Porcina

Saturday, February 16th

10:15 to 5:00 

$62.50

 

In the cold and darkness of winter lets turn to the warmth and colours of spring and summer. The Graphic 45 Flutter paper line plays tribute to all that's beautiful in nature with its brilliant colour palette and yes even those bodacious bugs in a beautifully layered 2-page layout. The second Pretty in Pink Princess, 2-page layout with its elegance and rich colour and a vintage fairy tale vibe is really perfect for so many themes from Disney to little girls Birthdays to weddings or to that special Princess in your life. Please join Katie to create both of these, special one of kind, layouts (or take them as a kit which comes with pictures and instructions). Katie's classes fill quickly, please call the store to pay and reserve your spot, 780-414-1540. There will be a little fussy cutting home work before the class. Home work kits will be available to pick up on or after Saturday evening, February 9th. 

 

 

Please bring to class: Paper Trimmer, scissors, ruler, pencil, vintage photo distress ink and inking tool, foam dots x 2 pkgs, adhesive, glossy accents and your fussy cutting home work. 

 

Please stop by the store to see these all in person. Photographs never capture all the detail, layering and accents in these pages by Katie.
