Scrapology Catch Up Crop Day

Yesterday the Scrapology club ladies met up for the day, at an event which has affectionately become known as our 'Catch Up' day at the EllenorLions Hospice Centre in Dartford.

This is where we also meet monthly on the first Thursday evening of the month.

Yesterday we met from 10am 'till 5pm and worked on what ever we wanted to do. We had a sales table and a raffle, as well a goodie boxes and refreshments available all day. Various tools and equipment were available for all to use.

Many of the ladies taking the opportunity to finish off layouts from previous months' classes, club kits and challenges.

Here are a few photos of our day and also the amazing gallery of what was achieved.

Robert worked hard helping us set up and pack up and he cooked us all a delicious lunch.

Celebrate Becoming 21!

My lovely girls Catherine and Emily at their 21st birthday celebration with our family at my brothers flat in Bromley a few months ago. I have already scrapped them in colour for a CIS challenge. Now they can have one each for their individual albums.

This page was created with the kit from the lovely Anita's class, I created mine at Debden as I can't get to her monthly classes. Anita's version can also be seen on the Scrapology Blog as she made it with the theme of Framed for the June challenge in mind. The papers are from Prima's Lyric collection as are the pearl swirls which were included in the kit. Most of the elements were cut from the papers, including some of the lacy bits. I cut the straight garland of flags so I could arrange them in a curved swag across the corner. Lovely big flat backed pearls were added between each flag. The butterflies were downloaded from Swirlydoos, printed and glittered with stickles.

I used my Big Shot and dies to create the rosettes and to cut the lacy doily above the photo. The numbers and letters are from two different sets of Thickers alphabet sticker sets by American Crafts.

Here is Anita's delightful layout, which is for the June 'F is for Framed' challenge over on Scrapology and also it is being taught at her classes.





Thanks for the class kit and inspiration Anita.
Thanks for looking

Belated birthday Celebrations

My birthday was back in May, but we had our monthly crop at Cardinal Colours last Saturday, and it was the first time we had all been together since our trip to Debden in April. I wanted to thank all my lovely friends there for my birthday gifts and cards, and the super cake too. I will share photos here of some of the hand made goodies I received. I have included some that I received from other lovely crafty friends too.

Thank you all for these lovely cards xxx

Anita made me this lovely, chocolate cake covered with Fluff and fruity sprinkles.

This is what it looked like before she left home:

As the day went on the Fluff decided it would ice the whole cake not just the top. Didn't stop it tasting delicious though. Thanks so much Anita xxx
