Sponsor Giveaways | Project Real Life, Words Unsaid, Kit-tastic

GIVEAWAY | One person will receive a spot in Becky Higgins upcoming 12-Week workshop Project Real Life at Big Picture Classes.

"Cultivate a good life and record it." This idea is at the heart of everything Becky Higgins does with her blog, her products and in her real life. Come and join her for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to spend some time with her during the last quarter of 2012. As Becky goes about preparing for the holidays, organizing around her home and documenting her family's story along the way, she'll be sharing ideas to inspire you, tips to motivate you, and real-life suggestions on how to cultivate the life you want.

Whether you're a long-time Project Lifer or you're just now hearing about Project Life, you will love learning about the guilt-free philosophy behind this system of memory-keeping. While Becky will give you plenty to think about and do during the 12 weeks of this workshop, she has no intentions of overwhelming you. This is based on her belief that that there isn't a person that exists who really "does it all" — and this should be the last thing that we expect from ourselves.

Additional details and registration can be found here.

GIVEAWAY | One person will receive a spot in Jen Gallacher's new workshop Words Unsaid at Two Peas In A Bucket.

Memories fade quickly and making sure we include all our stories within our scrapbooks can seem daunting. In this Mini Workshop, Garden Girl Jen Gallacher shares her approach for meaningful journaling. Jen is a dedicated journal keeper and has kept personal journals for over 30 years (ever since she was old enough to write). Now she combines her love of record keeping with scrapbooking! This journaling-centered class covers topics from holidays, to day-to-day events, to family moments, and several often forgotten subjects.

Lessons include:


  • Chapter 1: Special Events

  • Chapter 2: Day-to-Day Living

  • Chapter 3: Stories to Remember


Each chapter includes 10 BRAND NEW layouts for a total of 30 layouts. An instructional video is provided for each chapter in which Jen discusses her philosophy on journaling each memory, as well as, her creative approach to journaling design. Each chapter video highlights the start-to-finish process of one of the chapter layouts. Watch Jen select the photos, journal her story, and complete a layout all under 30 minutes!

Beyond mere journaling, Jen discusses challenges to telling the story, creative methods for incorporating journaling on the page, and product suggestions for a fresh approach to journaling design. A helpful PDF is provided for each chapter and combines into a complete, comprehensive guide to meaningful journaling. Each layout is highlighted on its own page and includes the complete supply list, a close-up photo, and the approach to both documenting the story and the design of the journaling. Additional materials found within the PDF include topic ideas, journaling product ideas, and tips and tricks for journaling.

Whether you're an experienced writer looking to incorporate journaling into your scrapbooks, or you struggle with knowing what to say on your pages, this workshop's for you! Never leave "words unsaid" again!

The content of this workshop will be available immediately upon purchase. The lessons are available for you to work at your own pace and upon purchase can be accessed in the "Workshops" section under "Classes & Events." A private message board forum is also available to ask questions of both Jen and to connect with other participants. Enjoy!

GIVEAWAY | One person will receive a spot in May Flaum's new workshop Kit-tastic at Big Picture Classes.

Does it take you WAY too long to decide which supplies to use on a layout? Would you like to learn a solution to this and a way to dive in and get creating fantastic projects?

Whether you have packaged kits that you’ve never even opened or an overflowing paper tote, want to learn how to create your own kits so that you can be more efficient packing for crops or are just looking for some scrapbooking inspiration, this is the class for you.

In Kit-tastic, May Flaum will lead you through four weeks of ideas, inspiration, scrapbook layouts and cards. She will show you how to bring your supplies together to make kits – and get the most from your creative time. Filled with videos, handouts, all new projects, and a very interactive class experience, you don’t want to miss out on this class.

    I've become such a fan of Project Life... I've been doing it right through 2012 and blogging it every Sunday. The best part is how it's actually changed my life... I'm more positive, I notice the 'little' things a lot more... and I'm much more aware of the people, places and things that mean the most to me :)
