We haven’t had a new post in this feature for awhile. So, just to refresh your memory, Inside Scrapbooking Stores is a series meant to focus on the brick and mortar scrapbooking supply stores. We all love our LSS! Many of them work really hard to make available the latest and best supplies, so let’s support them!
If you have a brick and mortar scrapbooking store to suggest, send us an email at scrapscene @gmail.com (no space). For past featured stores, please

Welcome to Willow Tree Crafts!

Amy Heavey tells us that they run monthly crops (on a Sundays in the new year), and other classes. "We also run a weekend retreat called Scrap Fever. Due to popular
demand we have increased it to 2 events next year so we’re really excited about that." Next year’s event will include teachers such as Donna Downey, Venessa Matthews, Layle Koncar and Mary Anne Walters. "We had Donna Downey over in the summer for some classes, and we’ve just started running digital classes."
Recently, Willow Tree Crafts ran a
Photo Editing Tricks class. In this class they taught how to edit and tweak photos to highlight them. Techniques covered included such things as cropping and resizing photos, re colouring, adding vignettes etc. They will be running this class again in the new year. You can sign up for the waiting list
here.
