Today is the last day to register for Heidi's class, still not sure, read the reviews below and check out the awseome visuals being created.

 

Facebook Class reviews from Heidi's students

Liz, "As a student I can only say this class is amazing. Heidi is such an excellent teacher. The students are so engaged. Taking this class has increased my confidence because of the message boards and comments from the gallery. The other thing is what you create. It is fablous!!!"

The Inked Stamper Scrapbook Store "I am LOVING the class! I call it my CPR to scrapbooking; it has rejuvenated my whole creative outlook and I highly recommend it! Thank you for teaching such a fabulous class. I find you so personable; you can really tell that you teach with your heart first. Even if I didn't love your products (which is insane, cause I do) I honestly would still buy them because of YOU."

Lorrie "Having a blast in this class and learning a lot of fun observation techniques as well as Heidi's fun new way of scrapbooking! I highly recommend this class to everyone. I am enjoying the great group of classmates, inspiration and awesome ideas! Sign up now while you still can, you won't regret it! Hope to See you there!"

Kathryn "All I can say is sign up now for those that have thought about this class but haven't signed up yet. I agree with the previous posts. This is, by far, the best experience. You will love Heidi, her products and concepts she teaches. Don't pass this opportunity up!"


Lisa "If you don't sign up you will regret it!!! It is innovative, thought provoking and FUN!!! If you are not sure about scrap booking, Heidi's class and products will change your mind! Go for it!"

REGISTRATION CLOSED!

It was just a view from a house we visited to have a pasta making class, but what a view!  I love that it is SO different to our home in Australia, so green and dotted with really old stone villas. Makes me happy every time I look at it.

In this episode Stacy shares her tips on Scrapbooking "Things," meaning your everyday life, your rituals and traditions and the things you use, love and surround yourself with. Hopefully the ideas she shares that she has created of her own memories will inspire you to try documenting random things in our life.
