Ive got a teaching gig!....Seriously :) :) :)

Hi Guys

Yep another post. I didnt want to chance it with Blogger so Im breaking up the posts. Sometime ago I was asked if I would like to teach at my local scrap store, at which I said yeeeeeeees LOL. The requirement was for me to teach mainstream which was cool, so I adopted the approach that I wouldnt try to pretend I was cool at mainstream and decided to use one of the books that is on sale at the shop as a source of inspiration for a series of classes, see below pics. My first class was booked for the 8th of May and it is now booked out. However there was a lot of feed back that those who had booked in were looking forward to doing some Lou style [STS] scrapping so I will be doing a complete turn around for the next classes. If you are coming to the class guys Ill chat with you and discuss what you would like to do!!!

These are some sneeks of what you can expect, there is a male and female version to choose. Pop over to the Seriously Scrapbooking blog for more details and if you would like to book in I have another repeat class scheduled for the 20th of May.

Seriously Scrapbooking is located at ~ Shop 4, 501 Goodwood Rd, Colonel Light Gardens 5041

Phone number is 08 8277-1298, and Email: jane@seriouslyscrapbooking.net.au.

Cheers and Happy Scrapping
