Home for Christmas Accordion Album!
Friday, October 3rd Time 1 to 2:30pm Cost: $37.00
Celebrate the warmth of the season with the Home for Christmas Accordion Album Class! Using Uniquely Creative’s stunning Home for Christmas collection, you’ll create a keepsake album that blends vintage charm with festive elegance. This traditional collection features rich holiday florals, delicate ornaments, and whimsical critters—perfect for capturing your holiday memories.
In class, you’ll transform a Uniquely Creative's accordion album into a festive album filled with fun folds, flip-outs, and pockets that make every page a surprise. Whether you’re showcasing family photos, treasured holiday traditions, or heartfelt journaling, this album will become a holiday heirloom you’ll cherish for years to come.
This class is open to all skill levels. The goal of the class is to teach you fun techniques to dress up mini albums. You probably won't finish the album in class, but the goal is to get the papers cut, folded and added to the album. You will probably have to finish adding the embellishments outside of class. Full color instructions will be included with your class kit.
No matter your skill level, you’ll walk away with a completed album and techniques you can use in future projects. Get ready to craft, connect, and create holiday magic—one fold at a time!
Supplies to bring to class: Tape Runner, paper trimmer that can cut 12" paper, scissors
Optional supplies to bring to class (will be available to purchase): Medium to light brown ink pad and foam ink applicator for adding ink to the edges of the paper. Catherine Pooler's Sand Castle ink was used for the sample.
