During
the last week of October, I will hold several workshops featuring this
Countdown to Christmas book. Many people
were interested in making it when they saw it at the Open House in August. Take a look at the details and see if you
would like to join one of the workshop dates.
The
book is made using CTMH’s Mini Mix Album. This spiral-bound album contains 12 pages made
of a variety of papers - velum, kraft and white cardstock. All pages measure 4” X 4”.
I
have used the White Pines Christmas papers to create the cover and pockets for
each page.
NOTE:
This book does not close flat!
You
can see in the photos that each of the pages has a
pull-out tag. You will create the
designs on these tags so you can use them as you wish—add a photo, use them to
journal what you did that day, or use them like an Advent calendar and write
activities that you or your family will do on that day. This book can be used in another year by just
changing out the tags, which will be easy to cut from cardstock.
Dates
are:
Tuesday,
October 27
Saturday,
October 31
Cost
of the workshop is $20 - includes all of the paper supplies, twine &
shimmer trim to complete the book.
All
the papers will be cut & ready for you to assemble.
Cost
of additional supplies is $20.85 (if you place a $50 order) + shipping &
tax. The specifics
of what needs to be ordered, and other supplies you will need on class day are listed below.

These

· Z3069 - Mini Mix
Album - $6.95
· X7200C - White
Pines Complements (the little stickers used) - $5.95
· Z1752 - Clear
Sparkles - $2.95
· S1510 - October
Stamp of the Month “Twinkle” - for all the label frames and “December” - only
$5.00 with a $50 purchase, regularly
$17.95. If you don’t have a $50 order,
we may be able to combine 2 orders and get one stamp set at full price and one
stamp set at the reduced price, and split the difference for those ordering.
Additional
supplies for completing the workshop:
· Tape adhesive
· Small glue dots
· Blocks for “label
frame” and “December” stamps from S1510
· Score board (I
have 3 if you need to borrow one - just let me know when you register)
· Punch for creating
the “notch” on the paper pockets on each page. A 1” circle punch will work, or a thumb-notch
punch will work (I used the thumb-notch punch).
CTMH sells both of these if you do not have one. Both sell for $9.95 and are found on page
149 of the current Annual Inspiration Catalog.
Z1999 -
1” Circle Punch - or - Z3131 - Thumb Notch Punch
· If you have a set
of 3/4” numbers to use for stamping the dates, that would be good. I used “In Review” C1622 on page 59. If you did the box/drawer Advent Calendar a
few years ago, the numbers are the same ones used in that workshop. Any alphabet set that is approximately 3/4”
will work.
· I have 3 stamp
pads of each of the colors we will be using, but if you have Glacier,
Cranberry, Fern, Chocolate or Champagne, bring them with you - or any ink that
is similar.
· If you want holes
in your tags for the twine, a Crop-O-Dile punch works well, or a regular hole
punch can work as well.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Hope you can join us!
