Resume

I’m a European Mixed Media Scrapbooker. My layered work is an explosion of texture, dimension and jewel tone colors.

NathalieKalbachStudioWebI teach creative, out-of-the-box and mostly technique based scrapbooking and mixed media workshops. My style and classes are fresh and unique, I love to interact with my students and showing them the techniques and experiences I learned, while pushing them in a subtle way to add their own creative kick to the projects.
