CAPTURED MOMENTS BLOG

OK, so it has nothing to do with scrapbooking, but boy, is it FUN!!

My friend, Darcie LaGrave is a certified Zumba Fitness instructor and I asked her if she would like to teach a class at Captured Moments, just for the fun of it! As I looked around the store, I figured we could easily fit 20 people into a class. Tiffany had just seen Zumba featured on Dr. Oz and was thrilled with the idea, so… here we go!

We scheduled a class on Tuesday, November 3rd @6:30pm (1 hour class).  As a favor to me, Darcie agreed to a $5 fee per person (as opposed to the going rate of $10-$15 per person) so we could introduce it to our customers. You never know… if we LOVE it, maybe we could do it again!

Here are some links to some videos that show Zumba Fitness in action. It is referred to as a “fitness party” because it is so much fun, you don’t even realize you are exercising!

Here is the final week of the Build Your Own Book Club! (So sorry, this is being posted a couple of weeks late!) We hope you have enjoyed building this book together and we especially hope that you have learned a few things or at least were forced to do something outside your normal scrapbooking parameters! We do have sign-ups started for the next BYOB beginning in January with a “Vacation” theme with the option of a “Disney” BYOB, so, if you just loved this project and want to do it again…

Here are the images and the descriptions that finish up the final pages and steps to the 1st edition of the Captured Moments’ Build Your Own Book Club! (B.Y.O.B.)

Here is Page 18, complete

This week’s page Express scrapbook page kit (also available as a Pre-Made Page) is perfect for fall photos! The papers are from Bo Bunny and they are beautiful coordinating florals, plaids, stripes and architectural designs that just say… “Wow”!

We added a journal card, ribbon and a dangling charm as well as paper flowers from Kaisercraft. The page features two 4×6 photo mats and one 4×4 mat.

Enjoy!
