A picture is worth a thousand words...
Here’s what you need to know:
If you have ten photos, you can make this book.
It will be a book that will live on your coffee table, a book you’ll be pleased to share with friends, family and visitors. A book that will say a lot about you, your family or your neighbourhood. A book that won’t be hard to make.
A picture is worth a thousand words… asks what if we could tell a story in ten pictures? The story you choose to tell is up to you: it could be the story of your life, the story of a certain romance or the story of a journey you wish you could live over and over again. It could be the story of who you were before, who you are now or who you are becoming each day. It could be the story of you but it could be the story of someone else. The story is in the ten pictures…and when you choose them, you choose the story.
A picture is worth a thousand words…
…starts Monday, the 30th of July, with an audio prompt.
…Eight downloadable PDF prompts take you through the process of making the book and telling your story.
…The prompts include sketches and photos of several finished examples so you can adapt the ideas to your own style and supplies.
…You can choose to follow along in real time and finish your book before the end of August or save all the materials for a rainy weekend and make the project over a few days later in the year.
…You can choose to join in email chat with other participants or just receive the class materials.
…You can keep your project to yourself, or post your work at our community blog, written down.
…You can make this album with the supplies you already own, but if you want to go shopping for supplies, I promise not to tell.
…And just to be extra special, you’ll receive a little care package in the post, with limited edition embellishments designed just for this project.
You may join in at any time, but be sure to join by July 28 in order to receive your care package promptly. You can join us no matter what country you’re in, though all the materials and the embellishments are in English.

I’m excited about this project, usually I just stare longingly at the cupcakes!
16 July 2007, 17:53
Hmmm, may need to think about a story to tell…
and really I’m gonna be mega busy with my new job in August and should not be thinking of any more scrapping projects…
but i think I’m gonna have to sign up anyway!!!

Sounds like a wonderful class & I will be joining after payday! LOL

A little dense here. Do we randomly pick 10 photos and somehow through this workshop come up with a story, or we have in mind already a story to tell, and then find 10 photos to “support” it?? I’d like to participate, but need help understanding first!
Thanks.
