For those of you who haven't met Debby, she is from New York and currently travels around the country- and globe- teaching the most amazing mini book classes. I hate to even use the word " mini" because there is nothing small about Debby's classes. Debby is so very generous with her products; I guarantee you could take what is left over from a Debby class and create a second album. You definitely get a BIG bang for your buck. You can learn more about Debby, her family, travels and teachings at her blog http://debbyschuh.typepad.com/
Debby will be sending out an email to her students in this area of the country so I would not delay in signing up. If you happen to have vacation plans that weekend, kits will be available and come with detailed instructions. So many of our classes at Paper Crown are paper arts or mixed media, not true scrap booking classes, therefore we are thrilled to have her share her tricks and secrets. These classes are perfect for our die hard scrapbookers and will turn you paper arts girls to a new love.

Little Golden Seashore Album
designed & taught by Debby Schuh
Sat., July 26th
10-1
$60
Some of my happiest memories are of days spent at the
seashore – whether it’s in Florida or Texas or California or somewhere else
across the world – most of us have pictures and memorabilia from these special
times that need a home.
In this class we will be making a darling album using
the classic Little Golden book, “A Day at the Seashore” as the foundation of
our project. We’ll take the book apart and then refashion it with the beautiful
new collection “By the Sea” from Graphic 45, and mix it with goodies from
American Crafts, October Afternoon, 7gypsies, and more, along with gorgeous
ribbon from May Arts. We’ll be making interactive pages with fold-outs and
pockets and page protectors and all the techniques that Debby is known for –
you’ll love the possibilities that this book presents to include lots and lots
of photos and techniques that you can apply to your other paper crafts
projects.
Student supply list: Please bring the following items

StoryTeller Book
designed & taught by Debby Schuh
Sat., July 26th
2:30-5:30
$65
Don’t you
love it when someone says, “Tell me about the time…” - who doesn’t love a good
story! You have stories that only you can tell, and this album is just the
place to write those stories down. Just like a good book that you would get
from the library to read over and over again, your StoryTeller book will be a
treasure-trove of your “tell me about” stories.
Using the
whimsical new Public Library collection from October Afternoon mixed with the
nostalgic new Open Road collection from American Crafts, we will make a
storybook filled with lots of places to tuck your stories and include your
photos. The new Heidi Swapp 8” x 6” binder album with three different styles of
horizontal page projectors will be the base of our book - we will alter some of them and make your
book an interactive scrapbook for writing, photos, and mementos.
You’ll have
several papers to choose from for your book cover and, of course, can use your
book for anything you want – it would make a great place to record your
favorite books or to use as a school album or even a travel album. Your kit
includes thirteen sheets of 12x12 papers, 4 stickers sheets, stitched borders,
Miscellany die cuts and buttons and ribbons and the album – it’s huge!
Student supply list: Please bring the following items to class… 12” paper
trimmer, pencil, ruler, scoring tool, scissors, strong tape adhesive (1/8” and
½”, if possible), regular tape runner adhesive, foam adhesive, Crop a Dile (or 1/4”
We R MemoryKeepers Power Punch), Distress Ink (I use Vintage Photo Distress Ink
by Ranger), ink blending tool, non-stick craft mat, sanding tool, stapler or
Tiny Attacher, corner rounder punch. Optional: Tim Holtz two hole punch and
powder to use make stickers “unsticky”.
