Memory Box Rocks!

I was attending a class at my favorite stamp store.  The instructor is the creator of Memory Box, Dave.  I LOVE the papers.  The classes were for colored pencils and watercolor pencils and the different techniques.  I have not finished my creations because it always take me a long time, when I am done I will share them.

******************************
The Brick and Mortar store will have Take and Makes. What do you mean you ask. here is an explanation.

Paper Maniac Take ‘N’ Makes
Brick-and-mortar stores have make-and-takes, but that is pretty impossible in virtual land, so we will be offering the next best thing – Take ‘N’ Makes! Paper Maniac will be offering a line of cardmaking kits that will be available in two options. 

First  Almost Done, will include all the pre-cut pieces and embellishments to put together eight cards. These will be high-quality, well-designed cards with lots of layers, mats, patterned paper, cardstock, dry embossing, layers shaped by nesties, ribbons, bling and what have you. Complete directions will be provided for assembly. The only part open to interpretation will be the focal point and the sentiment(s).
Second Make It Your Own and will include the same materials as in the Almost Done kit, but nothing will be precut. In other words, you get cardstock, patterned paper, envelopes and all the embellies, but you get to decide how to put it together.
