Birthday Bash Altered Cake Album, taught by Andrea Deer

Pennants, balloons, and cake… Oh my! Birthdays are a fantastic opportunity to reflect on how a person changes over the years. We’re going to take your annual celebration and turn it into a whimsical and technique-filled cake-shaped paperboard accordion fold book, using Creative Imagination’s Narratives collection. Please be sure to bring permanent adhesive, Xyron adhesive or liquid adhesive (for small letters/die cuts), a thin-tipped black pen, chalk inks, and your basic supply kit.
