The last of the six layouts

The wording on this is really difficult to photograph as it is heat embossed in gold.
This is the only one of the six  that I feel is still unfinished but as yet I can’t work out what needs to be added to finish it.

Each panel was made separately using some of the stickers and lace in the kit.

Five of Six Layouts

Nearly there. Here is the fifth Layout from the Limited Edition Kit Class in March using Prima's Stationers Desk range.

P1070675

Nice and simple this one however I did find that I didn’t have enough red flowers so I coloured some of the other ones using a Promarker.

Three of Six

and nearly half way there. P1070676-001

P1070676-002
P1070676-004
In this kit I did include some lovely little trinkets including this bird, which i made using clay and my molds. They are so easy to make and you can colour them in using Marker Pens, paint or anything really.

Love these colours

On the ball today. Here are sneek peeks of the photos I have used for tonights class with the measurements.

Remember, you don’t have to use exactly the same photos but take into account the colours in the background as these are the colours in the layouts.

Layout One

P1070671

Layout Two

P1070672

If in doubt bring black and white photos and they will work just as well.

See you tonight xx

The First of Six

A Limited Edition Class means a great kit and loads of scrummy layouts to use as ideas, a sort of jumping off point showing everyone how the papers in the kit can be used.
Sometime you can see a range of papers and fall in love with them but have no idea how to use them because they are heavily patterned or have a very bold colour way. My job is to use the Class Kit to give inspiration and hope that it helps everyone to get started and have a great day.
Over the next few days I will share all  of the layouts but first here is a picture of the kit each person received.

Available on the day were brads, charms, gems, buttons and additional flowers and lace as required. Paper was also provided for die cuts which were cut out by each class member.
Layout One – Perfect
P1070665
P1070669
P1070670

I now have kits available to make the 6 layouts. Everything including die-cuts are included however you will need to use your own stencils, stamps and ink pads. Full instructions are also included along with free membership worth £6.50, to the Ladies That Craft club. The launch date for this kit is Friday 28th March 2014.
More tomorrow.

Photos for Limited Edition Kit class tomorrow.

Morning. Nice to wake up to some sunshine this morning

While I’m eating my breakfast I thought I’d better let you know what photos to bring tomorrow. If you can bring along black and white photos (modern or old) they would work best. I have used both photos of outside walking and of the grandchildren but anything would work.

The predominant colour this time is red and the photo sizes (L Landscape or P portrait) I have used are:

Layout one: 6” x 5” L

Layout Two: 6” x 5”L

Layout Three: 4” x 6” P

Layout Four: 5” x 4” L

Layout Five: 4 1/2” x 4 1/2” L

Layout Six: 4 1/2” x 4 1/2” L and 2” x 2”

Layout Seven: 3” x 4” P (2 of these) and 2” x 2”

So lots of scrummy ideas for you to have a go at tomorrow.

Before I go here are the three cards we made yesterday.

P1070601Loads of classes now on the Blog so if you would like to come along please e-mail me at ladiesthatcraft@live.co.uk.

Better get on. Still got to add the finishing touches. Have a great day xxx

At last

one laptop returned mended and clean, (that won’t last long lol ), I feel complete once more and raring to go.
So what first? Well I want to share this finished layout by Sue Ross. I took photos of it in class a few weeks ago meaning to put it on here. The reason for sharing this one is that when I made this class layout I knew it needed “something” to finish it off. It’s a feeling that niggled and it was only when I saw the stamped phrase on Sues layout, that I realised what it was.

and of course the special button. I know how hard is was for Sue to use it as she treasures all of her buttons.

Lovely finishing touches. xx

Layout with a difference

Yes it was playtime on Saturday in the Scrapping Your Family class. The look on every ones faces when i told them we would be using a textured paste and modelling clay to make one of the layouts was brilliant, but we all had some fun I think.
photo 3 (7)
As you can see, everyone had their own ideas for the background.
photo 3 (8)
photo 1 (7)
I did also make a 15 minute layout as well just in case anyone wanted the easy option.

These layouts will be released as a kit very soon so keep checking back for details.
Hugs xx
