Another couple of photos I have had stuck in a bag of papers for years waiting to be scrapped!  The papers and stickers are from All My Memories...which used to be a huge company when I first started out but sadly gone now.  I wanted to keep this quite simple, so I used one of the Grand Nestabilities dies as well as the striped paper. Buttons and ribbon from stash and the base layer is Crumb Cake {kraft} from Stampin'Up!

This months kit

I am back teaching my scrapbook classes again after the Christmas break and these are the layouts the girls did today.  The papers, cardstock and stickers are from Stampin'Up!, the punch for the ribbon is Fiskars and the Die cut is a Nestabilites Grand die.  The title has been cut with the Tim holtz Vintage market alphabet.  In the kit you get enough papers/cardstock/stickers and ribbon to make the double and the single layout and comes complete with instructions.  If you would like a kit they are £10.00 not inc postage.

Wall Hanging

In this months class we did a wall hanging, based on one I did last year at a ATDML retreat.  I used Sizzix dies and Nestabilities together with Artsylicious flocked cardstock and Doodlebug crushed velvet cardstock. The "Love" title was made from Thickers chipboard alphabets and I covered them in glossy accents. The hearts have been stamped with tiny detail stamps and then punched out with my Stampin'Up tiny heart punch and coated with glosy accents.  Lastly, I added some Prima flowers and made the hanging out of black velvet ribbbon.

Who would have belived we would have snow in NOVEMBER!!!!

Keep warm and dry

Growing Up

I love this photo of my daughter when she was at Infants school and as the school colour was purple it was the perfect choice for this layout. The kit was from Totalpapercrafts, I made the scalloped circle from a Nestabililties die and added flat back gems around the edge. The papers are My minds eye Penny Lane. I love the idea karen had for running the ribbon through the page at the bottom....will definitely be using that idea again!

Have a great weekend be back soon with some more layouts

K & Co Madeline

This is the layout I taught at the Totalpapercrafts crop on Sunday. The whole range is from K & Co and makes a beautiful heritage page...although you could use more modern photos as well. I showed them how to do the pleats and they all did it really well, especially as it was last class and they were starting to get tired..lol!! For the labels I used a Nestabilites dies labels 4 and the gem stones come on the sheet of rub-ons. The girls also got a set of the fab velvet flowers in the kit with gem and pearl topped brads....as always fantastic value kits rom Karen. The photo is of my Nan when she was a child...I only have a couple of photos of her but she looks so beautiful! Not had a chance to complete my journaling yet...just need to check some details with Mum.

I still have some spaces left for an all day crop this sunday 28th if you are interested n Benfleet, £15.00 for the day, free tea/coffee etc and you will get a kit for a 12x12 layout complete with instructions.

Email me if you would like to come and I can pass on directions etc.
