"Be Merry" Mini Book and Banner

Get into the Christmas spirit with this festive, detail-filled mini book. We’ll be using American Crafts and Flair papers to create a vintage feeling mini book full of rich greens and reds. The book features acetate and chipboard pages and is bound using the Zutter Bind-It-All. We’ll also create a banner for you hang across your mantle or on the tree! The banner will feature with tissue paper rosettes, which you will learn to make in class. All class attendees will receive a complete package of chipboard letters in the class to customize your banner. (Banner not pictured) 

Supplies: Glue dots, liquid adhesive, precision tip scissors, color box chalk inks in maroon, chestnut roan, creamy brown, and olive pastel.

It started with jewelry, beading, sewing, home decor, painting, basket weaving, pottery, and cross-stitch. Marry that to an entrepreneurial spirit & at 9 years old a girl is selling her wares at craft fairs as far as her parents and grandparents would drive her. These days, Jennifer enjoys crafts of all genres from sewing to scrapbooking to jewelry with a little dabbling in the mixed media world. Her style is approachable and she wants everyone who sees her work to feel that they too can embrace creativity and make their home and life beautiful.
