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.

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).
