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 more about my childhood, specifically staying with my grandma as a preschooler. I can remember going garage saling, helping her make angel food cakes, watching Captain Kangaroo and collecting pretty rocks. I don't have photos to go with all of these but I do have photos during that time frame.

I have a picture of me as a young girl on my uncle's horse. I am terrified but you can't see that in the photo. My uncle was a most gentle man to us. I'd like to document that story for me and for my daughter who never knew him.

I would love to work on stories from my childhood. I've journalled many of our holiday traditions through my Christmas journals but need to scrapbook more of the everyday stuff. Also my memories of my grandparents who my children didn't have the pleasure of knowing.
Thanks Ali!

I spent every summer from going into 4th grade until my Freshman year of college at a Jewish summer camp. This is the place, that to this day, I think of as home. I don't even want to contemplate what I'd be like or who I'd be without these experiences. I'd love to do a book with my photos on this.
