In January, the first True Scrap Pocket Pages series of classes was offered as a full day event. I participated and learned a lot about this style of scrapbooking (but I haven't really gotten started with it yet). There were six sessions with some very knowledgeable instructors. If you are thinking about trying pocket page scrapping, I know that you would find these classes helpful. Even if you are already doing this type of scrapping, you would probably benefit from the organization tips and inspiration provided by the instructors.
If you missed taking these classes in January, here is some good news! The individual classes are now available so you can create your own custom event. Each class is priced at $12.95 but for a limited time the price is only $9 per class. If you want all of the classes, you can get an even better deal - buy five and get one free. Just put all of the classes in your cart (HERE) and use the code "SAVE40" to get them all for $45 - that's just $7.50 per class.
Here are the descriptions of the classes - you can pick and choose the ones that sound the best for you or get them all while the special pricing is available.

While I haven't been able to do much with my pocket scrapbook supplies yet, just reading about these classes again has reminded me to pull out my pages and give it a try. I really did enjoy the classes and the cards and embellishments are so much fun. My plan is to re-watch these classes (remember, you have "like of the site" access) and finally get some pages together! I'll post what I do on the blog (someone be sure to remind me if you don't see some pocket pages here soon!).
Remember the Bonus Offer! Get all six classes for only $45. That’s a savings of 40% over the regular price! Just add all six classes to your cart and use code “SAVE40″ to get the whole event for only $7.50 per class! See all of the True Scrap Pocket Page classes HERE.
I am still sorting out my tutorial on using the Silhouette to cut custom stamp mats. At least the program didn't crash for me on Tuesday so I should be able to post all of the directions and screenshots on Wednesday. Technology has made crafting so much more complicated - I love using my computer and machines but when things act up it's nice to remember that you can just cut something out with a die or scissors!
