June Meeting

Jo provided a selection of papers and embellishments for the June session and challenged members to create a 12 x 12 layout using a black and white photo and some of these papers.  The papers were from a lovely collection by Docraft Papermania entitled Midnight Blush which worked very well with black and white photos.  It will be interesting to see how members used these papers!

 
 
Although the turn out was down slightly this month, perhaps due to the time of year, members had a most productive morning and everyone enjoyed the pancakes and shortbread provided by Elizabeth and Margaret. 
 
The club has lots of resources for members to use.  Here Jessie is trying to figure out the Cricut! 
 


 
Please note
 
There is no meeting in July because of the summer holidays and there is a change of date for the August meeting - this will now take place on Saturday 20 August.

Shetland Scrapbookers' 10th Anniversary

To celebrate our 10th anniversary it has been suggested that members might like to make a 12 x 12 layout on the theme of TEN.



These can be on any topic and should be completed by 24 September 2016 so that they can be posted on our blog.  Please note that the deadline for this challenge has been extended to 29 October.

Members Layouts from the March Meeting



Margaret : Family


Elizabeth : Friends


Ann : Friends



Jo : Hope


Kay : Friends


Jennie : A Life in Pink


April Meeting : Journal Mini Book

Our theme for April was a Journal Mini Book and Jennie designed these small journal's from a single sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock for us to make.



Inside the books had pockets and places for tags and journalling.



Jennie also used the Stampin Up Envelope Board not to make envelopes but to create the fancy edging around some of the pockets.


It was a huge turn out of members (including new ones) on what was a glorious April Saturday!




We even had an overflow to our usual main table!

Next month Karen will be giving us a layout sketch to work from. 
Look forward to seeing you all on the 28 May.
