New Project Class | Halloween MiniBook 2010

I'm excited to announce a new addition to my site: downloadable, self-paced project classes.

Classes will include a full color PDF with step by step instructions plus a class page with video tutorials detailing the process of putting together the project.

The debut class is a Halloween MiniBook (mine uses photos from 2009). Here's a video preview of the new class:

    Love this idea. I am a self-paced kinda girl. Life happens you know, especially when you get all set up to do a project! LOL

    Awesome Ali, I am going to buy it right now! And I do believe I have one or two of those albums hidden away in my stash just waiting for the right project to come along, yay! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next! PS you all looked so cool in your Halloween costumes.

    This is a fabulous idea!!! I love that it's self paced. I could see going back to it year after year, or incorporating the ideas into non-Halloween minis. brilliant :) I can't wait to see more of these!

    Thanks so much Ali! Since my son is grown, I'm thinking of doing this as a "Halloween through the years", capturing each of his childhood costumed years. Do you think you might do a December Daily self paced class in the near future?

      I don't have plans to create a December Daily class at this time - maybe next year. I've always tried to share that information freely -

    I just wanted to congratulate your family on Chris' victory last night! I am so happy that he will be representing my community; he will always have my support.

    Thanks Ali! I love your album and I love the videos. As always, I learned so much and it really is helpful to see you actually "doing it." I have to wonder though, is your workspace always so neat?

    Thanks for doing and sharing this!

    A question- what rulers do you have that you used in the video? Where did you get them? Thanks in advance! :)

      Hi Lacey - those are quilting rulers. You should be able to find them at a fabric store or craft store. I actually like a metal-rimmed ruler the best but haven't found that from the move.

    You ROCK! I've always wanted to know your creative processes... Thanks for putting your self out there and working hard for all of us!
    It wasn't until I actually did December Daily last year that I really got what mini albums were all about and now I love, love, love them and have your book.
    There's such accomplishment in having a start and finish.
    Thanks as always.

    Ali,
    I LOVE this project! I bought the class and I am in love with all of these suggestions!! I completely agree that you should sell a kit to go along with it. I ended up buying all the supplies through the links you provided (except for the Maya Road 5 x 7 album...it's SOLD OUT everywhere...is this something I could find at my local Michaels?? Do you have any suggestions?)

    Also, please keep doing these. The price is great and the information is AMAZING! I have always admired your books but tended to get lost when I tried to recreate it myself. Having a step-by-step instruction with specific materials listed is so valuable!

    Thank you!

      Thanks Jocelyn! On the class webpage (with the videos), look under FAQ (at the bottom of the post) for suggestions on album alternatives :).

    Ali, thank you, thank you, thank you! I purchased this and went through the PDF and the videos last night. They are wonderful. I really love seeing all the steps, and hearing your comments about your process. I felt like I was in your workshop with you, and can't wait to gather all my supplies and begin my own. Thanks for sharing so much with us. You are so creative and a wonderful teacher. I look forward to more of these self paced projects from you. Congratulations on Chris' re-election too!

    Right that's me all signed up and my little gliches sorted thanks again for the super fast response Ali. Loving the Halloween but we never seem to celebrate it much here in the UK. We are, having a big Guy Fawkes (Bonfire) night this Saturday so will use that as my theme for this class and maybe I'll add a few pumpkins in there too!

    Hi, I would love to do this class. Is it still available? When I click on the link, it states that the page is not available. :(

    The minibook link doesn't work anymore. I've always wanted to do this class! Are you going to bring it back?
    Thanks!
