TNT Scrapbook Club with Jacqui Southas
 

Get Ready to be Inspired with Jacqui and the TNT Girlz
Do you love pretty patterned paper, luscious textured cardstock, inks, paint, buttons, brads, transparencies and ribbons in a rainbow of colors? Do you like to flip through scrapbook or stamping magazines and check websites for new product and ideas? Are you doing this alone, with no one quite appreciating that joy you find in the perfect match of patterned paper to cardstock to embellishments to your favorite photographs? Ever After’s Tips & Techniques is a group of likeminded people who meet once a month to share our love of papercrafting. Whether you are a traditional scrapbooker or hybrid/digital, a stamper and cardmaker, a minimalist or like to engineer interactive pages there is a place for you in the TNT Challenge Club.

At every TNT meeting you will receive a monthly kit and a challenge or two. The first part of the meeting we share what was done with the previous months kit, with the challenges and anything else you just want to show off to an appreciative audience. This is followed by a Make-n-Take and/or tool demonstration. The next month’s kit and challenges are revealed and we end the night with a private shopping spree taking advantage of the 20% discount for purchases that is available only to TNT members on meeting night. Bottom line, everyone in the group shares a love of papercrafting and comes away inspired and excited to create and come back again next month. Just $20 each month (kit has a retail value of $15 and the make-n-take has a $5 retail value!) Or, take advantage of our easy 3-month pay option. Pay for three months in advance and save! Call the store for details today!
Fee: $20 or sign up for 3rd Session and Save 20% (Sign up for three months for just $16 per session!)

 

Then on Saturday we have Cheri Villafranca returning for another one of her darling projects!

These girls have it down!!!  

Frugal Scrappin’ with Lori McCausland and Karen Thede

December 9, Thursday night at 6:30-8:30

At tomorrow's class we're going to be making 2 fun projects using Tim Holtz' Movers and Shakers Sizzix dies. Either of these could be a tag or ornament… you decide!

 We're going to embellish with a rolled Grunge paper flower technique and rolled felt pinecones that you'll be making in class.

 
Supplies:

• Your favorite colors of Alchohol inks and/or Distress ink for coloring your Grunge paper Rose.

 
• Diamond and Lace Stickles – I used both – Diamond is more translucent, but the Lace, is more opaque when I wanted a frosty look.

• Strong liquid glue – for covering chipboard and glueing your embellishments ie: 3-in-1, Fabri-tac, Camille has several options in the store if you need.

 
• Optional photos – photos can fit behind either opening if you wish to personalize your tag or ornament.

Again, for December with the holidays coming up- we've moved up our schedule to the 2nd Thursday night of the month. – December 9, 2010. 6:30-8:30.

Call the store at 760-630-CROP to hold a spot!
