Forthcoming classes

The snowman layout is October's class and you will need

1 stripey paper
3 Co-ordinating dotty Bazzill type cardstock ( you can use plain but the dotty type makes an interesting texture)
3 sheets of white cardstock
2 sheets of card stock the same colour I think this is the navy in layout.

The month hasn't been confirmed for this layout but you need a large Christmas design to cut out for example the one that Janet used is Bo Bunny with snowflakes, swirls and baubles, we thought if we do this after Christmas the chances you won't be able to get Christmas papers.
So you need
I  pattern paper with a large design to cute out
2 dotty design paper but you could do it in plain
I stripey paper
2 red cardstock
Another 2 plain card stock well thats whats written on my list.

Well we had a full house at October's Scrapbuddies crop and most of us were busy cutting out Snowmen.

 Here's Janet finished layout

 Love all the different colourways.

Some even packed their snowman away

  
Some of us were working with the layout but with out the snow!

 Some layouts

This month Sheila did the class. The class was really about styling the photograph to catch the eye but every one loved Sheila layout.

I'm not sure who was the winner this month, I really should make a note but this one from Janet was my favourite.

Some of us wasn't even Scrapbooking, heres a couple of Deborahs cards.

  And a few more of Karen's never ending ATCs.

 It was a small crop in August, now we did miss everybody but it was a nice change to be able to chat with everyone.

This is a copy from the e-mail I had from Sheila for the class on Sunday.

 
1 photograph 7ins by 5ins  Landscape.  You will be cutting it so it would be a good idea to bring a copy rather than the original.
! 12 x 12 sheet of Bazzill in a colour to suit the photo.
2 sheets of patterned paper to co ordinate
any embellishments of your own choice

There will be a competition  with a prize for the most popular layout.

it is not a difficult layout.  So how people embellish it will be how effective it looks.

Hope this is OK. 
I will bring printed instructions.

Well Mr Blogger is misbehaving and won't let me find a gap between my layout and the sketch. Has you can guess is another Sketch Challenge choosen by me.
Above it the sketch from Pagemaps and the layout I made using it. Sorry but can't find the  pic that would load to show the Pagemaps example but here's everyone page. Love how they're all different.

July Sketch Challenge

 Here's the  Pagemaps sketch for July's Challenge pay no attention to the size of photo unless thats what you want to work from.

 This is the Design Team example I think the only thing I followed the was tape measure.

This is mine, I used normal 4 by 6 photos but cut them down to size to suit me and I used most of it for photos.

 Janet was in charge of the Class at June's Crop and she decided to make a Handbag shaped mini book.

Inside included pics of her Hen do!

Here's a few  I managed to photo.

When I sent my Photographer to get some pics she failed miserably and came back with nothing. So I managed to get some Photos of Debbies striking layout although it wasn't all stuck down yet.

This is the front cover that Annette was making.

And FairyKaren was making yet more ATCs
