Scrapbooking classes @ Bookem

Hi everyone :)

Last Saturday I taught my first classes at Bookem (Tauranga).  It was a really full-on day too!!  Luckily I remembered to take my camera and got some great ‘working’ photos :)

The first class was creating two boys layouts involving a bit of doodling!  The ladies all seemed to enjoy learning some new techniques and were very pleased with their finished layouts.

Here’s a few photos from the morning session:

And here’s my layouts so you can see what they were creating – the first one is called ‘On a Mission’Lots of stamping on this one plus a little bit of doodling to get the idea.  Then we moved into the doodled layout called ‘moment’ The doodling was super easy to create with the use of Crafters Workshop templates!

After lunch we held a second class doing a little project called ‘More than just a card – Vintage Valentine’… and let’s just say that it was WAY MORE than just a card and took a lot longer than we expected!!

Here’s some of the photos taken during the class:

And here’s a few shots of my sample:As you can see there’s a bit of stamping and embossing in this project.  And what would a vintage project be without some lace, flowers and a hat pin? And don’t forget about ribbon!  We also used lots of gorgeous graphic images :)  Here’s my personal favourite… the front cover:We created a gorgeous flower out of sewing patterns along with a really groovy microscope slide!

A HUGE thank you to all the ladies who attended… the classes were pretty full!  I hope you all really enjoyed your projects and thanks for the lovely warm welcome… I really appreciate it!
