Quick Update on classes, kits and layouts....and Life!

Hello again everyone, sorry for my very long absence, apart from having the flu that really knocked me about and having to sort goodies for classes and kits, the month of March has just disappeared and now also April is looking like disappearing on me.
This layout following is the last class one we did at the end of March. it had heaps of different elements to it and it was amazing to see what the ladies came up with, especially since some of the photos were older style and others were of adults not just babies and the layouts all came out really neat.
This following layout Miss Sophia and Her Mum - Sarah and 2 Grandmas (I think one might be a "Nana") This layout is using some of the new Prima Collection - Nature Garden, I lifted the wee fairy and also used one of their new vines. I love how the papers and photos have joined

Sorry for the very crooked photo, (I promise I hadn't even had a drink, but couldn't get it any straighter on the photo editor i use.....might be time for another 1)

This following Layout is using the wonderful Simple Stories Paper line - (100 Days of Summer - Sweet Memories), I love the colours and think they are great for either Male or Female pages.

The next class we are having is going to be very exciting and can use anywhere from 9 to 13 and possibly even more photos....however they do have to be 4x3 or smaller

Does this appeal to you, if so send me an email and book in for it.

The dates are

Dunedin 28 April

Balclutha 29th April

Oamaru 12th May

Cost of the class is $25 + $5 (or $10) for Hall hire (depending where each class is held)

my contact email is robbiebell123@hotmail.com

Letz know what you think of the layouts and if you might like to come to the class either this month or any other one.

Take Care till next time...

Good Morning
Thought I would put up this layout for you all to see, it is very similar to the Prima January sketch I did earlier however I used this layout for the Ladies in my classes last weekend here and in Balclutha.
I wanted them to have a go at the paper lace around the circle and fussy cutting the flower vine,
which they all handled extremely well.
This layout seems to work well with any style photos but I think the black and white just finishes the layout off nicely.

This was usisng the Prima Printery Collection from last year.....cant wait for all the new papers and embellies to start hitting our shores!

Ok short and sweet this time,
have a great week and I will catch you later

Stuck?! Sketches Card DT Call......

Ok Ok I finally decided to enter this competition for the DT Call, I had been thinking and thinking and then thought why not???
I totally admire anyone that can put together a great sketch for others to follow and there is something mildly satisfying about seeing everyone get totally creative with the same item and how differently everything turns out...............so here is the sketch

Here are the 2 cards I came up with,
Note:- I have turned the sketch around for this card

and here is a close up of the wee bird on the flowers, isn't she gorgeous?

and this dreamy one.....

This one I am going to use for a friends wedding next weekend, I love the netting it gives the whole card a real pop!

Why not click the link below and head over to Stuck?! Sketches and see what they have been up to

Take Care and Have a great weekend...

BAP - Prima Jan Comp

Ok here is my first entry, this year for the Prima monthly sketch challenge.
In this layout I have used mostly papers from the
Prima - Printery Collection with one from the Prima -Romantique Collection along with a little bit of Tim and the title is from Imaginarium Designs.

What do you think......


The layout is of Little Sophia with her Mummy and Daddy during a family photo shoot and I was lucky enough to be given some photos to play with.
Isn't she a wee cutie!

Ok short and sweet, but I do have plenty more to upload over the next week so keep an eye out
Take Care

Help...Call the Police!!!

Someone has stolen December and January!
where have they gone?
It feels like I went to bed in November and now woke up facing the end of January.....

So that means I have a lot of work to catch up on and classes to sort for the upcoming year
and looking at some of the sneak peeks for the CHA there is going to be some very nice bits and pieces for us to all play with and drool over this year......So

Stay awake People, I promise not to be AWOL again
and I also promise to be bringing you some very special classes and ideas over the next few months.

Till Then......
