Would Finishing an Album in just ONE DAY fulfill a Resolution for you ???
...That's what you will do at this All NEW - POWER FORMULA WORKSHOP !
NOTE: You don't have to stay till Midnight - ( I just scheduled the long hours to accomodate late commers ...and for those who want to finish their journaling ...or add extra details ).
- It is very important to be ready and start on time ...so that you can keep up with the demostartions ...and the pace of the class. ( Otherwise you may find yourself staying late ! ).
# 1
Bring "PRE-SORTED PHOTOS" for 15 Double Page Layouts / or 30 Single Page Layouts.
Your Photo Sorting should be done in Advance of this workshop.
...But it is not manditory - ( althought it will likely set you back a bit if your photos are not pre-sorted ).
You can certainly bring more photos ... but you may not finish your project in just One Day by doing so.
...( In which case just schedule a follow-up workshop to get it all done ! ).
NOTE : Each CM Page Set has 15 ( 12 x 12 ) Pages / Front & Back = 30 Layouts
With 4 to 6 ( 4x6 ) Photos Per Page = 120 to 180 Photos Per Page Set, ( = or - ).
- You can add more Page Sets to your Album ( to accomodate more photos ), but this could take more time to finish your project. ...( If so, you should schedule additional workshop dates ).
- And you may have some pages where you will be using fewer photos per page ...( plan for this when you Pre-Select your Photos for each page layout ).
I suggest using Numbered Index Cards to divide & separate your photos for each page when you are pre-sorting for this class.
I also recommed CM Albums & Pages for this workshop, ( but it is not required ),
because they lay flat ...so you can work directly in your album.
NOTE: You can do this workshop without any album pages, just using 12" Paper.
( Placing your finished page layouts in an album or frame at another time ).
...But you would still use the Formula above to calculate the Number of Photos to bring.
# 2
Select 1 or 2 CM POWER PALETTES for your Paper & Embellishment selections.
Each Power Palettes come with 8 shades of the rainbow, with 16 sheets of Monochromatic Paper Prints, 16 sheets of Designer Prints, 96 Mats & Journal Blocks.
Plus 3 Jumbo Sticker Sheets of Decorative Titles & Phrases, 2 Jumbo Sticker Sheets of Monogram Alphabets.
And 3 Embelishments Kits ( with either : Ribbons, Flowers, Buttons, Tags or Frames ).
And all of these items coordinate wonderfully with each other in the same color harmonies ...for Simply Beautiful Layouts ...Made Easy.
( 1 Power Palette should complete one 15/30 Page Set ).
The 2nd Power Palette is suggested ...if you might like more color harmonies to select from.
( The Cheerful Power Palette is shown above ).
- Please pre-order for best availability & selection.
NOTE: You may use your own papers ...( but this will likely slow down the selection process for you ).
And if you have Stickers for Special Occasions that go with your photos - " Please bring them ", so they can be included in your layouts. ( Just keep in mind that these too ...can slow things down a bit - if you have colors that are hard to match - or shapes that are hard to work into your layouts ? ).
# 3
We will be using the New CM PAGE PLANNER TEMPLATES for Layout Design Selections.
...This again will speed up the design process with Quick & Easy Guides to follow.
( This is something like the sketch ideas as seen in SB Magaizines, but on full size templates as quick cutting guides to speed up the process. And they include an Idea Book to show you multiple uses for each template design ).
The guides should allow you to finish each layout in 10 to 30 minutes per page.
...If you select only the Quickest 10 Minute Layouts ...you could be done in as few as 5 Hours ...Start to Finish !
...( Even if you did only the most intricate desings ...you would still have 24 pages done before the workshop is over ! ).
Plus I will be having a Help Clinic Workshop on Sunday, Feb 20th ( 12 - 6 PM ), for those who might want to break up the workshop into 2 days ...instead of one long day !
FYI - I've been there and done that with other " 20 Pages in a Day " Classes & Workshops.
And let me tell you " even I " don't get the 20 pages made as they claim ...( only about 1/2 that many ). ...Becasue I find myself spending my time trying to adapt their layouts to match my photo topics and personal taste.
The Problems are...
1 - They randomly make the Paper & Design choises for you.
...So then you can't find photos to go with the layouts you just made, ( so what good are they ? ).
...And fall behind trying to adapt them to your use.
2 - You often get stuck with layout designs;
...That you really don't like !!!
...Again there you are trying to figure out ways to make them work for you !
3 - Most of their layouts are Single Page Designs.
...So if your need to make more pages ...then you have to go run around to Scrapbook Stores trying to fine more paper. ( Which could very well be discontinued paper they bought in bulk ...from a scrap wholesaler ).
You wont have any of these problems working with CM Power Palettes because ...
A - You choose the Palette Colors to work.
B - You select all of your own Layout Designs.
C - Every paper in a Power Palette coordinates with all of the other papers in the Palette, ...so you always have the match you need.
So make sure to RSVP to attend ( You'll be so gald you did ! )
