Welcome to our new blog! And our very first post is about our March meeting when Julie led us through a layout using Alcohol Inks. Members inked acetate to make either leaves or flowers for the layout as well as enough to cut out a title as well. She also showed us how to stamp a border around a photograph directly onto the layout and how she had made the other elements on her page.
It being Easter Saturday we also enjoyed hot cross buns with our coffee! Not all members managed to finish their layouts during the three hour session, so we will have an update post showcasing the layouts after our next meeting.
Jennie also explained the Colour Challenge. She has taken a challenge from the CSI Challenge Site (CSI stands for Colour, Stories and Inspiration). Not only are we going to be prompted in the colours, but also in what we put on the page and and how we journal. Everyone seemed keen to take part so it will be great to see the entries at our August meeting.
Here is the challenge:
See you all at our next meeting which is on the 27th April, 2013 when Jennie will be taking us through a mini-book and wallet.
