Designing with Diane: 2017

A Few Things to know.

Each month I will be showcasing ideas and artwork focusing on the use of the current promotions and workshops that are available that month. Some workshops will be at my home, but most will also be available in a kit format that you can do at home as well.

WORKSHOPS ON THE GO: These are monthly workshops that are held in my home, but that can be done on your own as well. The cost for a scrapbook workshop is $29.95 and includes supplies to create a 2-page layout with plenty left over to create more. (last month I made 6 layouts, 8 greeting cards and had almost a full roll of ribbon ($6.95 value), and 3/4 package of embellishments ($5.95 value) left over) You will also get a D-sized stamp set (valued at $17.95) to keep and use over and over. Most kits have a value of about $40 for only $29.95. If the workshop uses cricut embellishments I will cut these out for you so you can still do them at home even without a cricut machine. (ink pads however are not included).

STAMPS OF THE MONTH: Every month CTMH has what they call a stamp of the month D-sized ($17.95 value) stamp set that is only available during that particular month. When it's gone...it's gone! It can be purchased at full retail value, or for anyone spending $50 in other product they can purchase it for just $5.00. Check back regularly to see what this month's stamp set is and for ideas on how to use it.

SPECIALIZED PROJECTS: Ocassionally I will be offering other projects such as home decor ideas, card making workshops, technique classes and seasonal or gift giving ideas. I am hoping that these will be offered both as classes in my home as well as kits that can be done on your own. Keep your eyes on my blog as the holidays are just around the corner.

Finally...Registration is open for the WLC2 (We Love Cropping 2 event). There is a brand new website which is easier to navigate and more user friendly. Attached to it is a blog that will be kept open year round and similar to this one. I will slowly be transitioning this blog over to the one attached to the WLC2 Website.

Our March workshop is scheduled for Sunday March 26th at 1:00 pm. The kit we will be doing is called "some kind of wonderful" and includes the following products.

The kit is $26.95 and includes 12 sheets of double sided paper (2 each of 6 designs) 4 sheets of cardstock. Some kind of wonderful complements ( stickers sheets and glitter die cuts) black and white adhesive backed dots, and white twine. You will also get instructions for completing the following 6 pages.

I have also created an add on kit for $20 more which will use up the remaining products in the kit and includes all the cutting and preparing of all 12 pages. All you will need to do is adhere them together and add your photos.
