Unleash the artist inside you. Come explore how to work with the Prima Paintables using different mediums. In this class you will use glimmer mist to create a beautifully layered canvas. Even beginners will be masterful painters after this class is done. All you need is to show up and get inspired by your own creativity.

Debby Schuh
Saturday and Sunday, October 25th and 26th

Debby Schuh has been scrapbooking most of her life…she still has her scrapbook from when she was two years old! Her years as a school teacher and in the scrapbook industry have made her a sought-after teacher at CKU and scrapbook stores. She juggles working part time as a staff designer for Anna Griffin, Inc. with a busy travel schedule, teaching at events and stores across the country. Her designs have been published in Creating Keepsakes, Memory Makers publications, as well as many other books and magazines.
As a child, Debby’s favorite books were interactive with hidden flaps and pockets that helped tell the story. She likes her scrapbooks to be thesame way so they are more interesting for people to “read.” She is known for designing mini album classes that include lots of techniques for those “Wow!” moments.
Debby lives near Buffalo, New York, with her husband and two college-age sons. You can read more about Debby on her blog at debbyschuh.typepad.com.
