1. Scrapbook Basics
What is scrapbooking? Why should I scrapbook? How do I get started? This inspirational class answers all your questions on the hobby of scrapbooking.

2. Tools of the Trade
Which tools are the most important? How are these tools used? The proper use and benefits of craft tools are discussed and demonstrated in depth.

3. Journaling
Pictures do not tell a thousand words! Don't miss this important class about the profound impact of adding words to a scrapbook page.

4. Color
The concept of color theory is visually explored in detail. Learning about color's relationship to scrapbooking will empower you to use color in new and exciting ways.

5. Layout Design
Learn the principles of design structure to give you the tools to create dynamic layouts every time. Discover how photographs, journaling, titling, enhancements, lettering, shape and color work together for great pages.

Now that the framework of theory is in place, we can build on our scrapbook structure with a series of dynamic hands-on technique classes. All of the class materials are provided... plus space is allowed in each chapter for project assembly and reference.

8. Lettering
Become comfortable with various lettering techniques. This class includes plenty of practice space for letter doodling, which will reveal your own creative style. Have fun practicing with a range of different pen tips.

The Methods program features classes designed to refine your skills in specific area of interest. At the end of each Methods class, a special collectable pin is provided for you to proudly display!

11. Patterned Paper

12. Embellishment Savvy
Explore how embellishments can turn plain designs into one-of-a-kind keepsakes, and can easily transform the mood or meaning of an entire project. Using your acquired knowledge of layout design, you will develop the ability to view a basic layout as a blank canvas for your embellishing creativity!
