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.

And now, the giveaway.
Three people are going to win a spot in my Yesterday & Today workshop. To be entered please share just the subject of a story about yourself you would like to document. Comments will close tomorrow, Friday September 24th at noon Pacific. Winners will be posted shortly after.
Am I too late? I don't think so but I just started following your log and had a minute to read the entry for Yesterday and Tomorrow. It sounds great... am going to have to check out more in a minute to get an understanding of the Photoshop/digital components... my newest interest.
Thank you for the chance to win a slot in your class!

I so want to take this class. I've had a post-it note beside my computer ever since the class was announced. The note reads: Can I afford to register, yet?

I'd like to document those stories of my grandmother's childhood that she wrote in her handwriting about life in the the early 1900s.

My childhood wasn't filled with much happiness or joy. We never laughed together. But we traveled a lot and my parents taught us to explore the world, it's cultues and history. I would love scrap about our travels. For instance the time my brother received three peacock feathers as a blessing-gift at a temple in Japan. He carried those feathers all over Japan on trains, subways, city streets all the while tickling peoples faces. My parents were so irritated! When we got on the plane we realized that the feathers were left in the hotel room. He was such a beautiful, sweet little boy. I would love to take your class so that I record these memories. Some I have no pictures of, others are damaged. Thanks so much for the opportunity.

Family words - I had forgotten that my mom and brother called a pacifier a 'foofoo' until I had my first child and out of nowhere called it a 'foofoo' - just those quirky family words and phrases.

The one story about myself that I want to document that is still on my list of "ideas to scrapbook" is "On Being a Mom" with a bunch of random and deep thoughts on what my life is like as a mom and what it means to me.
thanks!

Thank you for making this class. I would like to document the story of how I have changed in philosophy in the last several years - focusing on my outlook on family and career.
