Multiple Photographs for our September Meeting

Karen was the leader for our September meeting and the theme was a layout with multiple photographs. Well Karen certainly managed that with her layout for us!

Karen also showed us how to resize and print photographs in Word (we shall be doing this again at another meeting so don't worry if you missed it) and also how to print on acetate and add it to the layout.

Thank you Karen. Everyone really enjoyed this layout and appreciated the tips on printing photographs.

June meeting

Using masks

Julie led our June meeting and provided lots of ideas for using masks in a scrapbook layout. Techniques included using tissue paper to make frames for photos and lots of ideas for creating lovely tags.

Our next meeting will be in August when the theme is A Masculine Layout.

May Meeting

For our May meeting Karen provided members with a sketch for a double page layout incorporating a number of photographs, but places for journalling as well.

This was Karen's example and she has incorporated six photographs and two newspaper reports.

May was a bit of a quiet month for Shetland Scrapbookers mainly because so much was going elsewhere. But at least there was plenty of room to spread out!

April Meeting and the Meandering Minibook

At our April meeting Jennie took us step by step through the making of this meandering mini book.

If you want the cutting and folding instructions for the book you can find them on Jennie's blog HERE. Scroll down and you will find the instructions are at the bottom of the post.

We had a great turnout.

Lots of punches and dies to use!

And some gorgeous home bakes made by Elizabeth.

Our next meeting is on the 31 May and we will be creating a layout to a sketch chosen by Karen.

March Meeting : Colour Challenge

Our March meeting was a little different being a colour challenge, the challenge being to create a layout using the colours:

Bright Pink, Lime Green and Turquoise

All of us a little out of our comfort zone on this one! And we each had to come up with an idea for a layout too as on this occasion no one was leading the session. 

We had a great time though and as you can see we were all very busy working away. Pop back next month to see the completed layouts.

Fabulous Journals!

Back in May 2013 we set ourselves the challenge of making journals and these are some of the fabulous journals members have made.  Some are complete …… others are still works in progress.
