Candy will lead us through another beautiful album called the Gatefold.  We will be using Uniquely Creative November release and creative cuts.

Your class kit will include: white Gatefold Album, 12 x 12 November release paper (year round paper) and the creative cuts to match. You will need the Flip folio album die, which you have if you have taken album classes with Candy last fall or winter. This album is the third style to match the die set, so it is a wonderful addition. Candy also suggests the stitched hexagon, but you may just keep that part of the album as a single white layer.

She will show her tricks, tips and techniques she uses to build a fantastic album which you can do again and again. Candy always has pdf instructions, pictures and a pre-recorded detailed video for class. Candy also adds  delightful ideas to use some of your "extras" (scraps) up too. Come enjoy yourself with Candy in November.

Pictures to follow on release date - November 1st.
