Post Cards from My Authentic Self: Stay in touch with your self and your core values by creating this book of postcards written from your points of greatest insight to your struggling every-day moments. Participants create an accordion bound book filled with 5 artfully decorated postcards representing their personal goals. Participants draw on their own goals and dreams with guidance and support from Norma Anne. You are encouraged to bring photos or collage clippings that have personal significance.

Art for the Sole: Create a way to stand firm in your artistic spirit when you convert plain exercise sandals to into one-of-a-kind wonders. We'll use collage techniques with stamps, paints, inks, clip art and more to make these moving art displays. Participants must bring their own sandals to class (oh rats, a reason to go shoe shopping *grin*).

Unfold Vacation Memories: Display your vacation photos and memorabilia in this 5" by 5" book that unties and unfolds to reveal a treasure trove of memories. We'll use your photos and souvenirs alongside vintage travel themed papers, stamps, and embellishments. This is a great way to keep your vacation with you long after the trip is over. Please bring 8-15 photos that can be sized into squares along with souvenirs related to your travels.

How You'll be Remembered:Learn to communicate yourself to your loved ones today and for generations to come. Create "about me" designs that look beneath the surface to your true essence. Use creative writing exercises, photographs, symbols, and memorabilia in this challenging and thought-provoking program.(no larger view available)

Collage & Assemblage Journal Covers:Alter a notebook or pre-made journal into a creative place to keep ideas, lists, and notes. This session is a great way to introduce yourself to the idea of surrounding your own space with creative beauty. We'll use a very "every day" ruled notebook as our base and learn how to use stamps and papers in combination for a beautiful effect
