September Meeting

At this month's meeting Karen showed members how to make a Flip, Flop, Flag book - this is a lovely, little book which can hold a lot of photos.  The book doesn't need any special binding as the pages are stuck onto folded card - a very clever design!

 

 

It was nice to see some younger members joining Shetland Scrapbookers this month.

The October session will be taken by Margaret who will be sharing a monochrome layout with members.

August Meeting

There was a good turn out for our first meeting after the summer break.  Sonia led this session and showed members how to make a mosaic scrapbook page using patterned paper.  The variety of pages produced by members was amazing showing how versatile this technique is - it is also a great way of using up scraps!

 

 

 

Members should note a change to the programme for next month - Karen will be taking the September session and demonstrating a layout using lots of photos.

A Layout Without Photographs

For our May meeting Jennie designed a layout without photographs. This had been requested by a member of the group last year as a possible theme and was based on the idea that this would make a good page to start an album or as an opposing page for one which had a lot of photographs in it.

There are plenty of places on the layout for journalling cards - inside the embossed vellum envelope, in the pocket above  the envelope and under large vertical band.

Jennie showed how to make envelopes very easily with the Stampin Up Envelope Board and some members got quite hooked on making little ones for layouts!

We were few in number as quite a number of members were away, but there was plenty of room to spread out!

And Jessie made these wonderful home bakes!

The next meeting is on Saturday 27 June when Julie will be leading a Masculine Layout with Sepia Photographs.
