What a week! We hosted our first event on Livestream.com. To be honest, I had bit of a tickle belly about it. I mean, there's a lot of stuff that can go wrong when you're "live." Since the event began at 7pm, I left the Clubhouse a bit early to get things set up in my kitchen. I dragged up a few extra lamps from my craft room and arranged them on the counter along with two computers and my featured project, step-outs, etc. I was excited to share the 6x6" Map Fold Book, created with materials from the Comics Collection. The vibrant colors were just perfect for my theme--a day at Lambeau Field watching the Packers beat the Broncos. (The Packers, as of this moment, are currently undefeated. Just thought I'd mention.)
You can visit a "replay" of the event at Livestream, where I take you through the project step by step:

I decorated the inside pages of the map fold areas with 2.75x2.75" photos. To make it easy, I trimmed a 4x6 photo to 2.75x5.5". Then, I cut horizontally at 2.75" to make a square. If needed, I trimmed the square from corner to corner to accommodate the folds. Check out how cool it turned out!
Thanks to Kay Williamson for snapping the photos of my little book! Go check out the Comics supplies! Everything is on sale now!
Oh! We're going to do another live event on Tuesday, December 13, 2011. You can go to our channel at Livestream, click on the event and RSVP. You'll receive an email 30 minutes prior to the event and when the event starts so that you don't forget. Cuz things can get crazy at home at night!

... Tricia, it went really well. No need to doubt yourself - you're a great teacher! Loved the comments about Cliff teasing you about wine in the middle of it all.  I might be a bit late (Zoe's 3rd grade school musical is that night), but I'll definitely check it out! Congratulations on getting the CS word out there in yet another cool way. |

... Tricia - I would not have known this was the first event on Livestream. So far I have made two and ordered more paper to have a few ready when the occasion fits. Love the Livestream and looking forward to more events of this type. Well done. |
