Scrapbooking in Season

May Flaum uses her scrapbooks to chronicle seasonal changes, and her focus on seasons allows her to notice and capture moments both large and small. Every August, apples start showing up good and ripe, in January the family goes through more hot tea than any other month, and March is a favorite month to visit Disneyland. These are just a few of the details in one person's calendar. Look through any family scrapbook and you will find a treasure trove of special events and holidays. Every year not only do we enjoy various events, but there are also countless little details about each month and season that are special and deserve to be preserved in a scrapbook.

Instructor May Flaum is a veteran Big Picture teacher and long time crafter. May is author of Paper + Pixels: Scrapbook Layouts, has been published in numerous idea books and magazines, and truly loves scrapbooking the details of life. In this fun eight week workshop, she will take you on a trip through the calendar year, sharing layouts, sketches, and countless ideas for preserving unique details all year long.

Major holidays and birthdays will be covered, of course, as well as ideas for scrapbooking the precious details of each season (view the syllabus for details). In addition to a handout for each month of the year, you will also receive two bonus handouts that cover ideas for getting more photos on your seasonal layouts and getting the best journaling and stories possible.

Not only will May provide a total of 14 handouts, but she will also host two weekend socials (on-line crops) where you can chat, interact, take part in challenges and contests, and enter to win even more prizes. This class is action packed and full of big scrapbook fun to kick off 2009!

May's class includes:

  • pre-class handout, available immediately upon registration
  • handouts for each month of the year that include color, supply, photo and page ideas, thoughts on scrapbooking that month, and several layouts complete with hand drawn sketches
  • two weekend socials (with chats, prizes, and lots of fun!)
  • two bonus handouts that cover getting more photos on your pages and making seasonal pages even more interesting through good journaling
  • two audio/visual presentations that coordinate with bonus handout material
  • message board to chat and share ideas with other students
  • welcome letters to introduce you to weekly lessons
  • weekly voice messages from May as streaming audio, downloadable MP3 files and transcripts
  • weekly email reminders when the classroom has been updated
  • weekly prize drawings sponsored by one of May's favorite scrapbook companies
  • weekly challenges
  • on-line chats to be held during weekend socials
  • gallery to post and share your creations with your fellow students
  • e-mail access to May

Note: May uses Photoshop Elements to digitally alter and enhance some of her images. While her handouts will mention the occasional use of PSE, her ideas are adaptable to any photographs you want to scrapbook.
