I signed up to my first online class with Shimelle Laine of Shimelle.com.  Its the “Learn Something New Every Day” Class and is for the month of September.

So this being 1st September, the first Prompt arrived in my inbox today and I have been thinking about it.  Bascially the idea is to make an album which journals something that you have learnt that day… every day for September.

Apparently it’s been running each September since 2006, and so there are veterans to the class as well as newbies on the forum.  It costs just £8 for the month long class with daily prompts and ideas and access to the forum, which I have to say, is buzzing with pictures from all those people a lot more organised than myself and have already made their covers!

Thankfully the class is totally flexible and there are no deadlines, which is good as I have only just chosen my format.  And that will be to make use of a 5.5 inch circular album which was a freebie with Scrapbook Inspirations Magazine… shame they no longer have freebies!

Anyway I have replaced the 1″ book ring with a 2″ ring, and I will need to add some pages.  And I think as part of my learning for this month I will be scrapping “out of my comfort zone” and choosing designs I wouldn’t normally choose, plus I will be producing hybrid pages!

Stay tuned for my updates!
