Christmas Crop!!

It was lovely to see everyone at the crop today, we all had a good play with the Dreamkuts and the Bind It All machine and everyone was really pleased with their little acrylic books- I think there were a few last minute xmas presents in the making there!!

We have now 'broken up' for the christmas break and will not be meeting again until February 8th! The hall is being decorated in January so that is why we are not meeting up till Feb! So in the meantime keep checking the blog for some scrapping inspiration and and maybe a challenge or two!

Merry Christmas to all of you, enjoy and savour this wonderful time of year,

Acrylic covered spiral bound mini book

The afternoon class this Sunday will be teaching you how to make this cute little 4x4 mini book. I will guide you step by step through this class teaching you how to cut, fold and assemble a very professional looking spiral bound book. We will use the Dreamkuts paper cutter, origami paper folding techniques and the wonderful Bind It All machine to bind the book with wires. The book can be prepared and the photos added at a later date! [ this is a brilliant idea for a last minute xmas pressie]

The class is free! However, if you wish to make the book along with me you will need to purchase the acrylic

covers,cardstock, paper and wires from the crop shop before the class starts.

Sunday 14th Dec Crop Details

Just a little sneaky preview of the 'You're so square' class for this Sunday. This class will show you how to make a 12x12 LO incorporating squares (& rectangles) and showing you how to make a patchwork page! This is a free class for which you will need to bring your own photos, I will be demonstrating 2 LO's [1] with 1 larger photo [2] with 3 smaller photos- preferabally square- all the same size. You will have time before the class starts to choose papers from the crop shop if you don't already have what you need.
