The Street Where You Live

“The Street Where You Live”

In a free, year-long online class with Jane Howden, use sketch bundles, digital templates, prompts, inspiration pieces, and challenges to take a fresh look at your community and get your “neighborhood” scrapbooked. Whether you live in suburbia, a rural community, a large city, the southern or northern hemisphere, Jane wants to take you on a year-long journey of discovery and documentation of your daily life outside of home.

• Understand the wider picture of how you fit into the place where you live.
• Think about how you interact with the people sharing that common ground on a daily basis.
• Discover new ways to see familiar sights.
• Consider the history of “hometown” life.
• Share your thoughts, reactions, ideas and questions in the class forum.
• Share your pages and projects in the gallery.
• Make a 24-page album to treasure.

   I just came from looking for a good page on Bing and came across yours. I have to say these templates are quite nice. Thanks for mentioning them in your blog. I will be sure to bookmark this site and return again.
