June Class......

Here's a sneak peak of the 2 LO's we will be doing on Saturday 16th June 12:30-4:30pm. I have only TWO places left so email me quickly to avoid being disappointed......

Both these LO's have pockets....one has three the other a deep large hidden pocket all part of the overall design. I will also show you how you could adapt these into other ideas for future LO's.. 

Email me now if you have not reserved your place...there are only two spots left!

Visit Trina....

After making an announcement last week by posting this....

 Trina McClune has a RAK on her blog, about next years Christmas event.....why not go take a peak? Ooops was I supposed to say Christmas??

Sorry we are being so secretative! Just know we are both exploding inside wanting to tell the world however all will be revealed very soon.....

Plus go check it out and her gorgeous cakes too......

Waiting, waiting...

I am not so good at waiting.....I do need to practice more patience at times! Maybe this is a hint at what my word to live by should be about next year....

The waiting is over...I love it when things are fixed. Typepad had upgraded their photo editing service but those of us still using explorer as our web browser were unable to upload photos...so they had the joyous task of reversing it all. Now I am happy.....thanks for bearing with me over these delays.

No go...

I still can't seem to load pics here and several of you have said they cannot leave comments.....not sure why. So next thing to do was I created a thank you newsletter for each of you ladies who attended Trina's classes last weekend but can't send those either! Something is going on here......maybe I have a gremlin in my computer?

I will keep trying.....

Thanks Trina.....and to all you lovely ladies who came

Wasn't it an awesome day last saturday?!! Huge thank you’s Ladies for joining our fantastic “Trina day”! Wasn’t it great being reminded about the techniques we sometimes forget to use! Plus you will have left with a whole lot of new tricks up your sleeve and inspiration galore. (I learnt for the first time about the help talcum balls can be when embossing...how did I not know that??)

I am sure all the fun you had will keep you inspired over the winter months, to carry on with your various projects. Yay... for more Trina magic...we will keep you posted as information comes to hand.

Here's some pics for you as a record of this wonderful day....

Being squished in like that was not a good thing...a bit of a challenge however that will not be happening at the next event!! So keep checking into this space and Trina's blog!

 

Inspirational quote for today....

You just can't beat the person who won't give up. ~Babe Ruth

Thanks again....

Trina for spreading your magic here in Nelson! What a day, what fun....

I have been trying to add photos for 24hours to no avail, this is when technology which I love to embrace is not fun, plus several ladies have emailed me to say they cannot leave a message either.....sorry!!

I will be in touch with you all on thursday with photos....in the meantime click on Trina above and head to her website to see hers...she has also loaded the smash album for you to follow if you need.

 

 

Trina's Layout class....

Here's a sneak peak of what you lucky ladies will be creating with on saturday....

A message from Trina: It's a wonderful whimsical LO. We're using one photo. 6x4 portrait. Ideally with background that you can trim.

If you don't have a photo to bring, you can always add it later.

Apart from your photo, all you need to bring is your standard scrapbooking kit.

I can't wait to see you on Sat!

MEGAN Oliver...well done Megan. You used so many techniques....stamping the background, stitching, hand cutting....making paper flowers and a gorgeous little mesh ballet bag as well....Congratulations.

A big sorry to Sally and Brenda......

I have been trying to post your photos and techniques you used to enter the FREE giveaway...a place in Trina's smash album class for the past 3 days, to no avail....

Brenda used a mask with inks instead of glimmermisting for a change and really liked the effect.....Sally is LOVING her Silhouette Cameo to create gifts for her family & friends with.....wish I could wave a magic wand and have the photos appear here....
