sandy's creation for sunday!!

sandy has generously created a layout for this months sunday classes for me using a mix of "honey pie" papers from cosmo cricket and the "katylin" papers from crate paper...it is just gorgeous ...during this part of the class we will be using a stylis to create patterns on vellum.....this page pack also comes with the matching alphas which we will use on two pages during the sunday workshop......a HUGE thank you to sandy for sharing this wonderful page with us and teaching us a new technique!!! i also apologise for the layout being sideways again but for some reason this happens with sandy's pictures...we haven't worked out why yet??? so sorry for the head tilt.....hahahaha
photo requirements: you will need 3 6x4 photos, either portrait or landscape it won't matter, that can be cropped to the following sizes: 2 1/2 in x 3 in,
3 1/2 in x 5 1/2 in and 2 1/2 in x 3 1/2in.....hope this helps.

sunday workshop pages!!

here is a look at the pages for the sunday workshops this month......please bare in mind that the two doubles are going to have stamping added to them for the titles...i am hopeing some new stamps i have ordered will arrive today because i really want to use those...that is why i have waited.....at least you will have a better idea of what we are creating and be able to decide on photos......


first up we have a double page layout created with the cogsmo paper range from cosmo cricket ....i love their papers...anyway you will need three 6x4 portrait photos to complete this layout....we even give the gimmermist a whirl for this one on part of our title!!! messy but lots of fun!!!


next up we have another double page this time created with gorgeous kaiser papers..i am really becoming a huge kaiser fan!!! just love these papers.....you have a choice with this layout as you can do it as two singles or as the double i have done....each side is a little different so it will be up to you what you do.... we will be colouring our own flowers and tag using the new radiant rain daubers from twinkling h2o's....i really LOVE these.....the are just awesome....i have used 2 enlargements on this layout but as you can see from the layout below you can use a group of 6x4 cropped down as well so again you have choice and freedom with this one......again the title is yet to be added and we will also be adding a quote which we will look up on the computer at the class unless you have one in mind already in which case simply bring it with you.....add to that some doodling and we will be finished!!!


i will post a photo of our final layout(it is a girly LO) soon as it has had an accident and needs to be fixed!!! anyway for it you will need 1 6x4 portrait photo to be left as it is and 2 6x4 portrait photos which can be cut to 2 3/4 inches wide x 5 inches in length......we use the Katylin range of papers from crate paper and use the rest of our alphas from sandy's layout as well as some fibers,brads and punches......oh and how could i forget we make two very simple hidden journal boxes.

we will fun lots of fun this month using some awesome new products so make sure you join in the fun,......there are still a few places left if anyone would like to come along......the workshop are, as listed on the side of the blog, sunday the 20th and sunday the 27th from 10am.....
