January 2014 : Pink Framed Layout

The theme for our January meeting was a framed layout and Julie designed this wonderful layout with a large number of different techniques! - stamping with Gesso, working with beads,, buttons and wire and making a paper clay cameo.

This was our last meeting of the current year.  We kick off next year with our AGM on Saturday 22 February 2014 at 10am.  Please bring layouts to work on - a good opportunity to complete some of those unfinished ones. 

The new programme will commence with our March meeting - a challenge layout.

November Meeting : Embellishments and Collage

The theme for the November meeting was Embellishments and Collage.  

Jennie showed us how to make an embellishment for a scrapbook page from the Sissix Envelope Die and also designed a layout for it which incorporated some small areas of collage.

Julie gave a demonstration of how to use gilding flakes to make small embellishments for a layout - flowers, flourishes, leaves, etc. - using different types of glues, including tape, and also stamps. 

Members brought along their layouts from the October meeting (see previous post) and we also circulated a list for ideas for next year's programme.  

There will be no meeting in December but we look forward to seeing everyone at the January meeting.

Members October Small Photograph Layouts

Fantastic pages made by our members from the October meeting.

 (Unfortunately it was a very dark day when I took the photographs at the November meeting, so the photographs are a little dark).
