So we got an unexpected call from the 'scrapbook famous' Debby Schuh! She told us that she had stumbled across our store website and would love to come and teach a few workshops for us! I couldn't say yes quick enough. I mean, this is DEBBY SCHUH- she just got back from teaching at Creative Escape!
So Debby will be joining us on Friday November 13 and Saturday November 14 to teach 3 workshops at the store. Trust me, you don't want to miss her- this is the first time she has taught at a local scrapbook store in the South and people have been begging her for quite a long time to do so! There will be a limited amount of spaces available for each workshop so don't forget to call the store to reserve your spot!More about Debby~
Debby Schuh has been scrapbooking most of her life...she still has her scrapbook from when she was two years old! Her years as a teacher and in the scrapbook industry have made her a sought-after instructor at scrapbook stores and events both in the US and abroad. In addition to her design work for scrapbook companies, Debby is doing the things she enjoys most ... designing classes, teaching, traveling, and meeting the students who love scrapbooking and paper arts as much as she does.
Debby's projects have been published in Creating Keepsakes and Memory Makers publications, as well as many other books and magazines. She is the author of the book Kid's Scrapbooking...Easy as 1, 2, 3.
As a child, Debby's favorite books were the interactive ones with hidden flaps and pockets, and she designs her scrapbooks with those elements, too. Her classes feature paper-engineering techniques for "Wow!" moments and often use products in unexpected ways. Debby lives near Buffalo, New York, with her husband and two college-age sons. You can read more about her on her blog.

Every great story
begins with those words and so does the story you have to tell! The
possibilities are endless...you might want to tell your story...what
and who has made you who you are today; you might want to tell your
mom's or grandmother's story or the story of becoming a mother; you
might want to tell the story of a treasured friendship or even of your
garden! This album can be made with a particular story in mind or you
can create the album and decide the story you’ll tell later.
Debby
originally taught this album as an eight hour album track at CKU this
year. We are so excited to bring it to you in a double session, four
hour class with detailed directions and pictures, so you can complete
your album at home as needed.

base of this fabulous album is the Fancy Pants Mixed Media album with
its mix of acrylic, felt, and chipboard pages. We’ll add to that a
wonderful mix of techniques, textures, and products to make an album
you’ll treasure. Your kit will include products from the October
Afternoon Cherry Hill collection, American Crafts, May Arts, Bazzill
