I just got a job teaching an adult scrapbooking class at the local college this summer. It will just be 4, 2 hour classess, but I am so excited!

Any ideas on what to do? I kinda already have some I just want to see what you ladies think are the most important things to do with scrapbooking. Oh and this class is for beginners to intermediates.

Hmm- I've never been to a class, so I have no idea where to start.

Do they have to be techniques that they don't need any extra tools? Like ripping. Because even to distress they'll need ink, sandpaper or something like that.

I thought about ripping, and paper layering and stamping...

I think that I will have some of my stuff there for them to use if they want to try some of the other techniques... and the lady who is letting me teach the class said that the college will provide what ever I need to teach it.

I am going to have a cricut machine and 1 cartridge each class!
I asked for a paper cutter.
I also asked for paper for teh students to scrap with that first night.

So I think that I can teach distressing.

Besides straight paper cutter maybe shapes too. Like circle and oval cutters. Those are great tools.

[Ashtyns_mom]

I have a circle cutter. I have never heard of an oval cutter. Where would you find one?

[lovemyfamily0799]

Creative memories has one. You use the same tools that you use for thier circle cutter kit.

Embellishments such at how to use brads, ribbon, buttons, and chipboard. ALso you can teach different borders. How to use punches and make borders and embellishments with punched items.
