2 Days in Cairns --- re-purpose old chipboard shapes


Do you have some old chipboard shapes that you no longer want to use because they're so out of style? In next week's class we're turning these yucky old chipboard flowers...


...into nicely layered little beauties.


And while we're re-purposing some old products, let's have some fun with peel-off stickers. They're mostly used by cardmaking grannies, but we can totally rock them too!


A couple of week ago we coloured in birds with Distress Crayons (see it here) and this time we're using the same crayons and a completely different technique to create this tag.


On both the chipboard flowers and the tag you can use whatever colour suits your photo, but we're all starting with a yellow and grey background. Those 2 colours go with almost anything.


So, if you'd like to learn 2 different techniques and get inspired to dig through your old stash again, join me for class next Monday at 9:30am and Tuesday at 10am or 6pm! As always, we're at Scrappin' With Style @ TJ's and cost is $25, which includes everything needed. 


Please bring a landscape 4x6" photo. If you have a heat gun and a heat mat, please bring them to save on waiting time!)

Freezing!

Yes, it is winter even in sunny Queensland, but that's not what this layout is about. 


When we were in Tasmania, we went to the most beautiful beach, Wineglass Bay. It was quite a trek to get there and back, but so worth it for the beauty. However, the water was freeeezing. These silly photos of Greg are my favourites.
We'll do this project in class next week and we'll make these gorgeous chipboard flowers. Thanks to Linda B for the technique idea!


We'll make the little swirls too. It's actually quite easy to make this layout look elegant, if you prefer. Try adding a few paper leaves to the flowers and of course, no goofy photos...
