Art Venture - Canada

Art Venture Canada was quite the experience! To make a long story short we started a wee bit late, but once we got rolling it was REALLY a blast. I love teaching. I love sharing my passion for new products and new techniques with others. And I really enjoyed each gal sharing their personal photos, their family stories, and their techniques with me. It doesn't matter where I travel, or who I meet in the craft industry...when we find out we both scrapbook we instantly have an artsy connection!

I taught two projects over the two days: an altered telephone titled "Light up Your Life" (and it really did light up!), along with a mixed-media layout titled, "Love Is the Answer."

The telephone was such a fun class to teach. It allowed the gals to customize many elements making each one more personal and unique. I LOVED seeing them come to life.

And who can resist adding a touch of mixed-media elements to their page, finishing it off with a garden of Prima flowers? The frame came in the kit too allowing a perfect way to put each project on display...which is exactly what I plan to do with mine!

 

Not only were the classes fun, but I have since connected with many of the gals on Facebook after I returned home! And did I mention that I finally met Adrienne Ford? She was on the Prima Design Team for two years and is an amazing artist! It was seriously a highlight to share time with her over our hectic and crazy week-end in Edmonton. Scrapbooking is more than just paper and glue. I especially treasure the friends I have gained over the years...all from a hobby we share! Thank you, AV Canada attendees for the memories and the fun we got to share!!!!!
