February Classroom Schedule!



Can you believe it's almost February already!?!!! This year has just been zipping right along!

Since there are just a couple days left in January, I thought I'd post the February Classroom schedule.



Kathryn's Classroom

Beginning Thursday, January 2, 2014, I started broadcasting eight live paper crafting classes a month from my online classroom at www.kathrynscraps.com!
 
 
 
 
 Classroom membership includes commercial-free live broadcasting, high quality videos and access to my video archives.
 
 
 
 

February Projects

We'll be starting with the "Sew Much Love" album. This album is great for a family or love album (without being too Valentine-y) or could house photos of your favorite sewing or quilting projects.
 
 
 
Once that project's all sewn up, we'll be starting our Locker Room project. The Locker Room project is extra nice because you get two classes - a sports version (pre-recorded) and a school version (live class).
 
Both versions will feature all kinds of amazing goodies from Prima! There will also be kits available for both versions, as well as chipboard albums available for purchase to follow along with your own supplies during the class!

 
 

February Schedule

Thursday, January 30, 2014:
2:00 PM - 4:00 PM Eastern USA

For this year's Scrappybowl project, we will be making Valentine's Day cards and treat holders!

NEW YEAR, NEW PROJECT: Magnetic Modular Organizer



Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful evening last night!
 
Thank you all so much for the support and encouragement you have provided me during 2013! I have loved our daily interactions and working on projects with you. I hope to see you all in the new classroom tomorrow for our first show of the new year!

Since memberships usually take about a day to approve, today is the last day to sign up for the classroom and be guaranteed to watch tomorrow.
 
 


I will continue to post about new projects, fun internet finds, and other goodies here, on Facebook and on YouTube in 2014.





New Year, New Projects

January's schedule is a little bit hectic due to the Craft and Hobby Association's Winter Conference and Trade Show (aka CHA). As usual, I will be tweeting from the floor with awesome photos of fabulous new finds!
 
 


We will be working on the Magnetic Modular Organizer starting tomorrow. Once that's finished we will switch to the Sew Much Love album project.

The Sew Much Love project is great for a family or love album (without being too Valentine-y) or could house photos of your favorite sewing or quilting projects. More details about the Sew Much Love project will be announced soon. There will also be kits and chipboard albums available for purchase to follow along during the class!

Organizer

Tomorrow we have a lot going on in the new classroom - giveaways AND the start of a brand new project for 2014: Magnetic Modular Organizer.


This folder holds everything you need to get organized in 2014!
 
Doing Project Life in 2014? Use the folder to organize your photos and cards!
 
 

Boxes are held inside the folder with super strong magnets!


The sample above uses the "New Year, New You" collection by Webster's Pages.
 
 
 

Giveaways

To be honest, we have so many giveaways to do, I'm really not sure how far we'll get on the organizer, but I'll do my best! :D

Yummy!
 
 
 

Kits

There is a kit available for the classroom version of the project, which uses Graphic 45's "Couture" collection:

These elegant papers will make a striking organizer!
 
We include everything you need to make the original folder configuration - magnets and all!
 
There's even a clipboard and some chip pieces to decorate your boxes!


The kit is available at two price points - member and non-member. Most future kits and manuals will be available with a similar format.

Member pricing is for customers who have already purchased memberships to the new classroom and do not need access, or for members who like to work from a manual alone and do not need live videos to complete a project. If you select this option, you will receive the kit and manual only and not classroom access.
 



Non-member pricing is for customers who do not have memberships to the new classroom, but would like it for this project. If you select this option, you will receive the kit and manual, temporary classroom access for the duration of this project and lifetime access to this project's video archives.
 
 



Manuals

There is a manual available for the Magnetic Modular Organizer project. The manual is available at two price points - member and non-member.

Member pricing includes the manual only and does not include classroom access.
 
 


Non-member pricing includes the manual, temporary classroom access for the duration of this project and lifetime access to this project's video archives.
 
 


Kits are ready to ship and manuals should be sent via email on of before January 2, 2014.
 
 
 

Happy New Year!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful new year and I'll see you tomorrow!

Kathryn :D
