Are you ready for class?

The new Create 10 Mix it up mini album classes begin on Sunday so now is the time to put together your supplies ready to begin. With these classes it's important to have everything ready to use at hand as it will make the process of putting your album together simpler. This time around we're focusing more on different scrapbooking styles and technique processes. After the initial stages of making the album in class one class two will follow with decorating the first two pages in a 'clean and simple' style. They'll be lots of hints and tips as to how you can achieve the clean and simple look and learn how you can use it in your future scrapbooking along with the class instructions.

Following on from this we'll then be looking at using different surfaces including transparency and canvas. We'll also look at more styles like getting more grungy and messy with inks and paints. They'll also be some ideas to make different kinds of pages like a fun 'pocket page' in class 9 and using washi tape to make pages with folding out multiple photos in class 7.

This set of classes is not just the opportunity to make a mini book but an opportunity to try out lots of different styles. This can work in two ways to either inspire you to try a new style if you're a seasoned scrapbooker or to give you a taster of new things to try if you're a scrapbooker just starting out.

New Create 10 Classes - 'Mix it up mini album'

This August we have some brand new Create 10 classes coming up and this time around we’ll be mixing it up and creating a mini album. The mini album has been designed for 4x6 size photos as a place to keep lots of photos that we don’t necessarily want to make whole scrapbook pages for but still want to keep. We’ll be mixing up both techniques and materials to give your mini album a unique look as well as to learn different techniques and styles that we can use in our future crafting.

Classes will begin on Sunday August 28th although you can play along with the classes at any time you choose as they’ll be archived in the Mix it Up download area indefinitely.

To access the download area for Create 10 Mix it Up you’ll need to sign up to receive your own personal username and password. Visit the Create 10 classes page to grab your sign up token, http://www.craftytemplates.co.uk/onlineclasses.html
