DISNEY Garland

"DISNEY" Garland
with Erin Ridley
http://www.scrappuccino1.blogspot.com/

 Cost:  $20.00

To reserve a spot, please email scrappuccino@yahoo.com


In this class you will learn how to create a Disney garland.  However, I must warn you... garlands are extremely addicting!  Garlands are a fun, creative way to display photos or create a theme.  They are a nice way to add a little decoration to any mantle, counter, desk, etc.  Know someone that is a Disney fan?  This garland would make a great gift!

The kit has everything you need to create this project.  The finished project measures 5" high, 40" wide. When folded up, the garland measures 5" x 5".  If you want to make a garland, but don't want to take any time away from your cropping weekend, the kit does come with complete directions as well as pictures, so you can easily make this in your own.

BRING TO CLASS:
Adhesive, scissors.

You can sign up for the class once you get to the crop, or to reserve your spot, just email me at scrappuccino@yahoo.com

FotosForever - Photo Scanning at Home

http://www.fotosforeverathome.shutterfly.com/

We will be available to scan your photos at the desert retreat.

Do you have boxes of old photos/pre-digital that need scanning?

Do other family members and friends want copies of the photos you have?

GET THEM SCANNED!

Have us scan your photos while you are cropping. Don’t worry about getting them totally organized before getting them scanned we can give you tips and ideas.

We have two scanners one that is a multi-feed that can scan 500 photos in 1 hour and a large format scanner that we can scan your 12x12 scrapbook pages . If you scan your photos at home it will take you over 30 hours to scan 500 on your own scanner.

This is a great way to preserve and protect your photos from any type of damage. Once they are digitized you can share easily and make slide shows, memory books, gifts etc.

So while you are getting ready for the weekend, think about what photos you would like to get scanned.

Call us with any questions
