Base page workshop

I had my base page workshop yesterday. It was alot of fun! Thank's to everyone who participated. Here are pictures of how my base pages came out. I am really happy with them. I will be using them for my son's 1st birthday party.










The following are a few pages done by those that attended the workshop. Nice Job Ladies!!


(As you can imagine Silhouette was a popular choice of paper)




Ann's Pages /Kate's pages
















Lee's Page/ Beth's pages

Afraid of embellishments? Keep it simple. Matching stickers and brads add a demension to your page with out taking alot of time.





Save money by only buying metalic colored brads, like silver, gold, copper, and antique. The metalic colors will always match what ever you are working on
