Description:
I don’t know why, but I just love clocks, and have a fondness for things with small drawers.  Imagine mixing those two elements together, along with a configuration book, and Marion Smith’s Mad Tea Party paper line (which happens to have a clock of some sort on every page), and you have the perfect combination for a not-so-mini-album!  With 15 page surfaces and pocket pages too, there’s plenty of room to add photos.  I’m in love with the four inch wide, faux, pocket watch we’ll make and tuck in the cover of the album.  And, there’s a little tea party going on under the domed glass encased with rhinestone.  Not only is it cute, but it’s functional too since the thick chain on the pocket watch acts as a closure for the book.  Add a few drawers and a peek-a-boo shadow box on the inside, and you have one “mad” book!       

So, pack a lunch and come spend the day with me creating this fun book! 

Student Supply List: 
Basic Kit:  craft mat, scissors, paper cutter and bone folder
Aleene’s Super Thick Tacky Glue (Pink label)  
Glossy Accents - for use on the pocket watch
Glue Dots (small, but any size will work) – for use on the pocket watch
Crop a Dile

OPTIONAL:   Evergreen Bough Distress Ink:  We will share my ink pad for making one element of the book.  If you own it too (and you should because it’s one of my favorite colors!), bring it to class and you won’t have to wait to use mine.

OPTIONAL:  If you want a distressed look for your book, bring these items:
Foam blending tool
Favorite brown distress ink (I used Brushed Corduroy)
Distressing Tool (I used the Tonic/Tim Holtz paper distresser)
Stardust Stickles – there are pages in the book that are stickled, but you’ll want to do this part at home because of the drying time.
