Creating Keepsakes would like to introduce to you "Happiness is in the Details" and "Think Ink." Happiness is in the Details. This versatile class includes coordinating patterned papers, solids, frames, corners, rub-ons, and quotes that you'll use to create an album filled with joy—things that make you happy. In class you'll complete the album cover and five 6x6 pages using multiple techniques such as paper pleating, free cutting, glue dot posies, and large paper roses. Plus, you'll have plenty of supplies to take home to complete all 16 pages while showcasing 24 photos!  Think Ink. Inking on your scrapbook pages and embellishments adds depth and texture to your creations. In class, you'll learn techniques for creating and enhancing embellishments using fabric, stamping, masking, glitter alphabet stickers, and transparencies, plus ways to incorporate ink into your projects.  As an added bonus, your class kit includes one of our favorite sentiment stamp sets from Technique Tuesday, an ink pad, and an acrylic block all for you to keep!
