Hi everyone another weekly class coming up very soon. Monday 3rd and Saturday 8th March at 10am at  Scrapbook Fantasies  two cards again this week. What to bring to class, your normal scrapping stuff, your score pal and a smile and have some fun.

Once again I entered my double page and card in this weeks challenge with the other girls from all over the world. The double layout had to be  monochromatic in colour, with 5 photos, one to be black and white and 1/2 on the right side and 1/2 on the left side. I decided to do white as my colour scheme with 5 black and white photos The card was to be monochromatic as well and must be 3D and have a pop up element in it. I used pink as my colour scheme.  But I didn't succeed in getting in the first 6 in my group of gals but enjoyed doing this a giving it a go. 

Another weekly challenge from CSI  One of the things in the testimony that you had to journal about a pet I knew which photos I could use. My cat Anna-belle. I have turned the sketch sideways. and created form there. Here is the little she cat, a devil in disguise she might look adorable but she is the owner of this household.   The colour scheme is black, tan/light brown, white, ecru and corn yellow. I used flowers, pearls and lace for the evidence and used the inspirational words in my journaling, style, fancy and hope. Here is the challenge along with the sketch Product I have used: Kaiser Art of life collection - negitaves and film strip, pearls and some of the collectables Prima and petaloo flowers and stuff from my stash a typo doily frame and bobunny noteworthy tags

It is that time again for my weekly  card classes. I will be teaching at  Scrapbook Fantasies   on Monday 24th Feb and Saturday 1st March starting at 10am. We are making two cards this week.

I had to stop and think about this challenge, it was not the colour scheme, evidence but the testimony. I do not get much tome to read, don't get me wrong I love to read but time is nil.... I get to read my favourite mags at breaky over my cup of tea and toast. I found this page a bit dark for me but I had fun doing it. I have used all the colours, heat embossed put a frame around my page. Used textured paper, dry embossed and made greenery on my background. I have put my journaling on a tag under the photo and it says: I try and find a quiet place to read and it is usually a card, scrapbooking or art magazine. You think by now life would be simple and have plenty of time to read. But no I have had a novel along side my bed that I started over 12 months ago. Such is life.....   Here is the challenge that comes from  http://csicolorstoriesinspiration.ning.com/   The colour scheme: bright cherry red, white, bright yellow, dark olive gree...

Once a month at  Scrapbook Fantasies  they have a card club, 2nd Saturday of each month. If you like you can do the card swap and you usually have a theme, this month was love and hearts. You make about 12 swap cards and swap with others who do the swap. Sometimes one of the girls will do a demo on something they have learnt. You can come along just for the fun, it is free and you even get a cuppa and a chat. And it is a good way to use up your scraps. Not all my cards are made from the same thing but the design is the same. Here are a sample of my swap card:

Here is a sneak preview of next weeks class (Monday 17th and Saturday 22nd) 10am start here at  Scrapbook Fantasies  We will be doing two cards this week all made from a $5.00 kit purchased from the store. Come along and have a bit of fun with a great group of girls.
