Emma's fab mini book

Here's the mini book the girls did in class yesterday afternoon, designed and taught by Emma from Imagine That Papercrafts in Upminster.

Back soon with another layout I did using the scraps from the canvas class and my last kit.

Canvas class

 

 

Today I had my first all day class with Emma from Imagine that papercrafts in Upminster. This morning I taught this canvas project. A slight twist in that we used the reverse of the canvas instead of the front. The papers are Carta Bella Beautiful Moments, the metal plate is from Tim Holtz and we covered it with some paperartsy paint and wiped the excess off. The flowers are from the Tim Holtz Tattered Flower Garland Sizzlet die, butterflies are a Martha Stewart punch and the corner punch is from EK Success. Inside the plate is a Tim Holtz ticket. Here's some close up pictures of the flowers and the ornate plate. The edges of all the papers have also been dry painted with the Paperartsy Snowflake chalk paint.

 

 

I will post a few pictures tomorrow of the mini book Emma taught in the afternoon.

 

Enjoy the bank holiday weekend...fingers crossed no more rain tomorrow I want to start work on the garden!!

 

 





August kit...Carta Bella

Re-started my classes this month after moving, for this kit we used the papers etc from Carta Bella Beautiful Moments range. I am loving the papers this new company are producing.  The second layout is made with the left overs and the title cut on the Storybook cricut cartridge.

I am using the same range for a canvas class next week and I have already made another layout with the bits and pieces I had left from these layouts and the canvas. Just got to stick it all down but unpacking more boxes keeps getting in the way..lol!! I am pleased though I am keeping to my promise of using all my leftovers up and not putting them in a bag to use at a later date and not!!

Details of the all day class which includes the canvas are on my side bar, I still have some spaces left if you fancy a fun day out playing with paper and ink etc.

Monochromatic class

Had my first scrapbooking class in what seems like ages today. The theme was monochromatic but it ended up being more cream and black than white and black..lol! A technique based layout using Clearly for art plastic to make the black flowers/leaves, using some Hero Art stamps. Tim Holtz tissue tape to make the white flowers cut on the Tattered florals die and Chloe stems and Piestra Tile cut with some of my new Memory box dies.

Closer look at the flowers

A few Timmys swirls on Doodlebug crushed velvet card and a lovely little Inkadinkado birdy stamp to finish.

The paper is from Bazzill who are now going into patterened paper and the title is cut on Tim's Vintage market Sizzix die.

Have a great weekend



July class at In2crafting

To anyone coming to the class this saturday at Wickford, the photo size is 1 6x4 portrait black and white. The paper has a more creamy background than I thought, so I have used cream as well as white in the layout. If you prefer sepia photos, that would work as well. Photo theme can be whatever you like but there are flowers on the page so maybe not a male on his own, but anything else would go. Title is completely upto you and the class is technique based this month so an easy layout to give you time to play making the flowers.
Any questions, you can get me via the shop or on jackiedasilva07@gmail.com.

To everyone else, I have finally moved but still in a complete mess but hopefully next week when I have decorators in I will have time to post some layouts.

Springtime

Today I had my monthly class at In2crafting. This months kit was Echo Parks Springtime, a easy clean and simple double layout. I do have another single page but I could not get to my photos to finish so will post that one another day.

Butterfly border is from Tim holtz, everything else was in the kit.

Have a fab weekend

Still keeping to the plan...

....to use up all my left over scraps before I do anything else! I had a whole sheet of cardstock,some small pieces of cardstock, some die cuts that I had brought but not used, a few buttons and some bakers twine left from this months kit. So I spent some time last night putting this layout together, pleased how it turned out. Sometimes you can have too much stuff and spend hours moving pieces of paper around and around, when you have limited supplies...its seems easier..lol!

Everything is from My Minds Eye Dilly Dally, love this range but then I say that about all My Minds Eye! Border punch is Martha Stewart Cherish punch, great for boys layouts.

Hope you have a had a lovely Bank holiday, back soon with more layouts
