Halloween/Fall Photo Shoot


Ladies,

Here is a flyer about the upcoming Fall/Halloween Photo Shoot. Donna from Natural Reflections does AWESOME work! We have set this up to coincide with Trick-or-Treating so that the lil' ones don't have to dress up twice. If you don't do Halloween, go ahead and come on in. The set will be a fall set that can be used for either regular Fall or Trick-or-Treat pictures. You must pre-pay $15 at the store by no later than Saturday Oct. 23. This will hold your spot. Appointments will be every 15 - 20 mnin. Pre-payments are non-refundable. We will also be giving out Halloween candy. Woo HOO! Please call the store at: 217/347-3600 or drop by if you have any questions. Please also note: There is an additional $5 sitting fee that you can't really see on the flier on here, so the total cost will be $35. Also, if we get a good turn out...Donna will be coming back to do a Christmas shoot for us! Oh YEAH!

If you haven't had a chance to stop by the shop yet & check out the new collection of Graphics 45 HALLOWE'EN IN WONDERLAND paper, you really ought to. I had a little free time today & dug into my stash. This is such a fun collection to play with. The possibilities are endless. This is what I have put together so far & I still have a few ideas up my sleeve.
I'm thinking that the shadow box would make a great class project. This one is perfect for Halloween & it can easily be switched out for Thanksgiving & then again for Christmas.
So, I have a free night on Wednesday, Sept. 29th. If you are interested in putting one of the shadow boxes together, just stop by the shop or give us a call to reserve your spot. The fee will be $30 & all you will need to bring is your basic class kit. The shadow box & all of the goodies that go in it will be provided. I hope that you can join us!!

Halloween Eats & Treats Class

Kate just brought in the samples for her "Halloween Eats 'N Treats" Class. She has 2 completed, and 2 up her sleeve! The ones I saw were a "Mummy" cover for candy bars, and a cute cover for microwave popcorn. These would be a great family project to dress up those goodies for the little ghouls and goblins in your life!

Also, the Cuttlebug Christmas cards are now on display in the store. Learn about the versatility and different techniques for the Cuttlebug machine, distress inks, punches, etc.
