Yesterday & Today Begins In One Week & A Giveaway
Tags:
In just one week my new workshop begins at Big Picture Scrapbooking:Yesterday & Today.
It's hard to believe it is almost finally here.
And in case you didn't know already, you're invited to join me.
Here's what I want you to know if you are still considering embarking on this journey with me:
• With a focus on the stories from yesterday & the stories from today, this class is really an in-depth look at the way I scrapbook.
• Each week (on Thursdays) you will receive an email inviting you to the classroom where a video presentation will be waiting for you to access on your own time (you do not need to be online at a certain time - it's just one of the awesome things about Big Picture's classroom set-up). These video presentations are not just a 5-15 minute talk about the subject and the layout - so far they are averaging around an hour. During that hour my goal is to inspire you to take a look at the way in which you scrapbook and encourage you to focus on the things that matter most to you within the framework of the theme for that week.
• In addition to the video presentations there are weekly video tutorials showing my processes for concepts and techniques using Photoshop Elements.
• For those of you, like me, who like to actually read the weekly content there will be a color PDF download detailing the concepts and information covered in the video presentation (as well as a how-to for the weekly project).
• Each week there will be a digital element download and a digital layered template (all new). The digital elements will be used as printables (hybrid elements) on the weekly layout and the layered template will match the paper layout I create for each week.
• Even if you will be away for a time during the class you will still have access to the materials.
• The class will have it's own message board & gallery for sharing and communicating with one another (including me).
• This workshop is a chance for you to:
investigate your past through words + photos
do something meaningful with older photos if you have them (or to tell those stories that have meaning even if you don't possess the photos)
tell your own personal stories of success + challenge + growth
work on embracing imperfection & going with the flow
celebrate your everyday life + make sure you are capturing stories that are meaningful to you today
connect with other people who care deeply about collecting + celebrating the stories of their lives
• The cost for this 13 week class is $99.
I am really, really excited for this workshop to get underway.
I hope to see you there.

I would like to document the pre-baby/dating/early marriage stage with my husband a bit more, now that we are expecting a child I have a feeling these memories will become more important than ever, and recording them will be a must! Also, I'd also like to get some stories down about my parents, and I need all the help I can get!

I would love to do something on my childhood and the traditions that my Momma did for us growing up. As well as all the family camping trips we use to do in the summer at Salmon La Sac

I want to document my parents and my husband's parents! I would have loved to know more about my grandparents...and so I hope that by documenting my children's grandparents, they will be able to see where Nanny always dreamed of travelling or what Poppy's first job was!

Yesterday my son asked me what my favorite toy was when I was little...I remember I had a doll called Mrs. Beasley. I want to create a page about my doll. To tell the truth, I have not made a page or even written down any of my childhood or teen stories. I have much to do in this area but not many photos. I'd love to hear what your approach would be to this using no photos. Thank you!

Our time in England (4 years)...it's a huge undertaking, so many defining moments, choices made that have changed our lives, people met, new experiences and lots of firsts for all of us.
Thanks! Kinsey

I'd like to document more about my grandparents' lives before they had kids. I find their teenage rebellion in the late 50's totally fascinating! ;)

I would like to document the many memories I have about being a flight attendant from 1999-2002. Most of it was before I had kids and I think my family would enjoy knowing about this part of my life.

I have always wanted to document my feelings from when my twins were born 11 weeks early - I just don't know how to do it!! Lots of emotional ups and downs - some of it was scary - not sure how to document it without it being dreary.

I would love to win a spot in this class!! and I would like to tell a story of my grandparents. I recently got a bunch of photos from my grandma and they show a lot of photos of her and my grandpa (who passed away) when they were younger and raising their two boys (my dad & uncle). I always wonder what it would be like to know them then.
