Happy day

Tracy from my2angels has done it again - a brand-new set of pretty embellishments in a rainbow of colours called Flutterbies! 

You wanted to use them and we will do so in next week's class at Scrapulous.

I've been wanting to scrap Hannah's graduation photos for ages, but her brilliant blue dress made colour matching a little hard. For me, the blue Flutterby set was the answer. 

Each set has 2 butterflies, 3 flowers and 2 pins and the rest will be die cut in class.

All you need is 3 photos that can be trimmed to 3x4", a background paper or cardstock and a few scraps to suit the set you pick. You don't have to stick to one main colour, it's just what suited my photos.

You will have the choice of 6 colours:

Something purple and a love heart

Are you a fan of all things purple? Next Monday at TJ's we will create a pretty purple layout with lots of shimmery effects. 

You will learn how to colour your texture paste to make it pearly (choose your own shade of purple), use a mask with glimmer mist and add some glimmer glaze. 

All you need is a 4x6" photo. 

The butterfly effect was inspired by a layout by Lisa Hausmann, featured in Australian Scrapbook Ideas.

This class is at TJ's Scrappin' With Style

And at Scrapulous we are making this little beauty:

We'll paint and sew the heart and add a few clusters. This is a great stash busting project! 

 As always, you bring your own papers (a background paper with a bit of design on one or all edges, plus a few scraps, buttons, flowers) and a 3x4" photo.

And we will make one of my all-time favourite embellishments - the good old bottle cap!

At Scrapulous we will create a fun & funky layout with 2 secret pockets for journalling (they're secret, so you can't see them, but here's a hint: They're behind the blue star paper).

Cheeky Joel

Happy Easter to everyone! Once you come out of your chocolate coma, you might want to do some scrapping.... and here is what we'll do in class the week after Easter:

This layout can be for any theme, you just choose the colours you want. 

  

To make this cute little cluster, you just need 1 flower:

We will use vellum to make this pretty sunburst (which was inspired by a layout by Melinda Spinks). 

So if you want to indulge in some chocolate free fun, join me on Tuesday (07/04 at 10am), Thursday (09/04 at 6pm) or Friday (10/04 at 9:30am) at Scrapulous!

In the 70ies

Gosh, what were we cute in the 70ies! My mum had embroidered matching bright orange T-shirts with our names and flowers. It's not showing in the black and white photos, of course.

  

If you are a hoarder of pretty paper scraps (and aren't we all?!), you will love next week's class! You can even use the itty-bitty ones. 

We will create this circle with a stencil and distress inks, so you can match your colours to your papers.

You will need 1 photo, 5 or more patterned paper scraps, 1 white paper or cardstock, a rhinestone or pearl swirl and a flower. 

Class times are: 

Tue 31/03: 10am

Thur 02/04: 6pm

Friday class will not be on, as it is Good Friday.

Golden Monkeys and photo booklet on a layout

Do you have photos that are an important part of the story you want to tell, but they're just not suitable for their own page (out of focus, too many photos of the same thing, too private etc)? 

In next week's classes at Scrapulous you'll be adding a clever photo booklet to your page! I used 7 photos, but you can use 3, 5 or even 9 (as long as it's an uneven number) 

We will also make this nifty circle embelly and...

...use some super cool glitter paste (in gold or silver) and...

...some felt ribbon (thanks to the fantastic Tracy from my2angels for the felt and the idea).

All you need is a few papers, mostly scraps, some photos and 1 cardstock for the booklet. Why not dig some out, use up your stash and join me for a fun class?
