April 29 StampCamp

It was a whirlwind of cardmaking with 2 stampers making over 40 cards!!  Time for lunch and still finishing before 3:00.

We used some sets that are retiring – Trendy Trees, Medallion, Live Laugh Love and Season of Friendship.

We also used some accessories that are leaving us - In Colors, Designer Series Paper, Finial Press embossing folder and Whisper White grosgrain ribbon.  But, we used the new Framelits, Blossom Punch and the oval Embossing Folder so a few new things along with the old.

April 28 Scraptastic Event at Riverview School

I was lucky to be invited to the first ever Scraptastic weekend at Riverview School in Devon.  It was a fundraiser for a new playground at the school.  Scrappers arrived Friday evening and most stayed till almost midnight.  The same thing happened Saturday with doors opening at 9:00 a.m.  Meals were provided as part of the registration fee and they were awesome!!  Saturday morning started with muffins, coffee and fruit.  Then class time or scrapping followed by lunch.  There was a choice of 3 homemade soups – Chicken Tortilla and Corn Chowder were the two I tasted and they were great – and cake and a fruit plate for dessert.  I didn’t stay for supper as my class was finished before lunch but I heard that Pulled Pork and homemade Black Forest cake was on the menu!!

The class I did was Saturday morning and it was a 6x6” Mini Fold Out Album.  Very quick & easy to make, but harder to plan the photo layout and embellishments.

There was a place for eight photos but I just used seven.  And as primarily a cardmaker, I have yet to do any journaling, but I will!! 

April 22 & 26 Technique Class

Faux Quilting was the technique this month.  It is something we have done before but these were different ‘quilts’.
Stampin’ Up! makes the colour combinations so easy!  Just use their Designer Series Papers and the colours that they use!!

April 16 Card Making in the Library

Three quick cards is what we do and they certainly were quick cards this evening!  Everyone was done well within the hour.
