Yesterday & Today Begins In One Week & A Giveaway
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 the relationship I had with my sister when we were growing up. It's very different than what we have now (we are now best friends) and I think it will be nice my kids, and hers, to have some day. Thanks for the opportunity to win Ali! :-)

I would like to be able to document the stories behind all the old photos I have of my grandparents. My grandfather has passed away but I spend every summer with my now 90 year old grandmother and she shares so many fantastic stories. I need to get them down on paper.

So many great stories in these comments, I almost forgot what I was doing! I would like to document the memories of this little village where my grandparents lived and where I have visited every summer of my life. My grandparents have died, the houses have changed, but it is still a deeply meaningful place to me.

This giveaway is so nice, Ali.
I would really like to put down evidence of all the places I've lived (my family and I have moved 17 times in my 22 years) and all the important people along the way. Thanks :)

Since my children and grandchildren
never knew my Grandparents, I want to
share with them how special they were
to me.
