This week was the last meeting of my stamping class at the local community center, taught by Sylvia Valle, the former instructional editor of Stampington for 10 years . . . summer vacation is here and all her students including me await to take her classes, again, in the fall . . . I volunteered to make a Thank You card from our class . . . but at the last minute had a BRAINSTORM to make a memory book with photos of each student on a memory book page designed by the student . . . everyone did such a BEAUTIFUL job and were so positive and supportive of my last minute idea . . . here are a few pages that I created for the book . . .
The local newspaper published an article on her classes at the community center . . . what a perfect subject for a memory book layout . . .
Sylvia can have 25 students or more in her Greeting card class . . . and she warmly welcomes new students never saying her classes are FULL . . .
I can't believe how talented this gracious lady is . . . she also teaches (and LOVES) beading, calligraphy, journal writing, bookmaking (bookbinding), and probably other stuff I don't even know about!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She tells us that her teaching is a LABOR OF LOVE!
You just gotta love this special lady!!!!
