Graphic45 - Ladies Diary Collection - Box and Book set...

Hello Everyone
time for me to let you into a wee secret...this is the next class on the agenda and its a real wee honey!
In this class we are once again using the Graphic 45 Ladies Diary collection papers (Just cos we can....and I love them so much) I didnt think after the Once Upon a Springtime collection that Graphic 45 could do any better then they bought out the Little Darlings range and now this ...
WOW is all I can say...................Keep it up Graphic 45!

Anyway I procrastinate, this is the next class like I mentioned and its on the
25th August in Dunedin and 26th August in Balclutha.
Cost is $30 and $10 for Hall/tea/coffee etc.
Kitz with full colour photos and instructions $35 + $5 courier
Letz know if you or anyone you know would like to attend or purchase a kit, as they will all be being put together next weekend.
email me on robbiebell123@hotmail.com for further details



and the next photo...

This photo shows the wee book inside the handmade box. It has 8 pages inside (including the inside covers and both sides of the 3 pages) so there is plenty of room for those special notes, memories or just photos...its totally up to you. Unfortunaltely the book doesn't have my usual lumpy bumpy effect because its only got so much room in the wee box, but I still managed to get a few flowers here and there.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Take Care till next time

Good Morning Ladies well I am writing this blog post from my death bed...well thats what it feels like I have the flu, thanks to my wonderful Boss (well Im guna blame him!!! MEN) Anyhow this layout is the one we have been creating in class this month and so far the Ladies have loved it....except the fussy cutting, that is something you either love or hate, I must admit I love it and the more you practice the better you definately get. I have used the Graphic 45 - Ladies Diary Collection and its absolutely gorgeous But wait till next month we are getting really creative with a handmade box and book for inside and on ce again cos I love it so much we will be using the same papers... if you would like to join us the class will be on 25th August in Dunedin and 26th August in Balclutha, just let me know

Until next blog post (or when im better) Take Care

A Double For You...

Here is the latest edition to the classes I have been running here in Dunedin and in Balclutha. I have created this using the Simple Stories Documented Collection and it was great to see all the Ladies and wee Amy create something totally different.

I love the browns and creams of this line and think it works really well with the black and white photos of Trevor and Myself (You know he hated every minute of it aye!!!). I also created this layout using some of the Simple Stories 100 Days of Summer Collection and it was a kit purchase option for the Ladies. (If anyone is interested I still have a couple left for $30 + $5 postage with full colour instructions and everything included) I do have some very special photos to put up shortly of our trip to the Brizzy Expo and of course the very special man himself....Tim Holtz! Take Care until then

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
