Scrapbooking - Sweet Girl (aka Birdie page from Scrap 365)

 
 Tuesday 3rd September 2013


daytime 10.30am - 3.30pm
Taught by Elizabeth.
£12.50
As soon as you saw the 'Birdie' layout in the latest issue Scrap 365 you asked us to make it a scraplift class, and you know we DO try to oblige! You'll be using the beautiful Craftwork Cards "Tea Dance" papers to make this page come alive, in dusky pinks and turquoise and the layout involves lots'n'lots of layers, inking, and making ALL of the embellishments that you can see! There's also some stamping and punching, and plenty of die-cutting, too.
Bring a 3" x 4" photograph, in either B&W or colour (bearing in mind the colours of the papers that you'll be using), and can be either landscape (horizontal), like Elizabeth's, or portrait (vertical); with a portrait photo, there will just be less birdies, and more bunting!  Come and join the fun with this 'gentle and romantic' scrapbook page.........vinyl gloves can be provided for anyone not wanting to end up as inky as we usually are!
Don't forget.............you'll need your lunch, too!

Bring: a colour or B&W photograph, measuring 6" x 4", ideally portrait (vertical)..... and your lunch!  The page is a slightly subdued yellow colour (or a rich cream, if you prefer), and has a few splashes of colour, too.

This colourful page features either three of the same photograph for emphasis, as Elizabeth has done, or three different photographs, or at a pinch, just one - the choice is all yours (see below for photo sizes)!! The page includes a little bit of die-cutting and punching, a lot of ink splats and inking (there's a surprise!) and a smidgeon of tissue tape and jewellery wire!  Although Elizabeth has used photographs of a boy, photographs of a girl/s would work just as well (or any other subject, for that matter).
