Another busy day at the Cutting Crew Crop







Just wanted to say thank you for having me at the Cutting Crew Crop again this saturday, it was lovely to see everybody again. I did a class on making and binding a mini book ( the one I did at my crop!) which everyone enjoyed. It was great to see Alison again whom I met at the Indigo Mill retreat, lot's of people were very interested in booking for retreats with Indigo Mill in 2009, so they will all be contacted bt Steph at Indigo Mill very shortly. I'm back in Brierley Hill in January where I will be teaching a class on an acetate covered book with pocketed pages and bound with wires using the bind it all machine!

Pat!!

Well done for winning the raffle on Sunday, it was great to see both Pat & Julie again after meeting them at the Indigo Mill retreat.

The double page Layout

This is a picture of Judy's first double page LO made at the crop on Sunday, I did a demo on making a double page and she then went off and made this wonderful page, in fact I think she made 3 LO's altogether on Sunday - GO GIRL!!

Mini Books at the Crop






















So here are a few of the mini books that we made at the crop on Sunday, aren't they great! Diane used hers to display photos of a day at the zoo, Emma covered hers in black and pink fairies and is going to put pictures of her baby daughter in it and Sue used some gorgeous 'Jolie Chocolat' papers in browns and pinks which made the book look really classy. My book was a showcase of the Mitchell family's year of 2007, I didn't realise we had done so much last year! All so different but all using the same basic materials. Just peachy!!
