We'll be completing the Double Layout and here's what you'll need to bring along:-

Photos-  This Layout can probably be adjusted to suit whatever you bring along!  My samples both have a 5x7 portrait photo, a 6x4 Landscape photo and 3-4 wallet sized photos.

• Sticky tape, scotch tape.
• Greylead Pencil

The theme of the layout will be determined by which of the journal cards you pick from the pack-  here's the paper to give you an idea!

See you all on Friday!

Special Saturday Scrapping- Must book by 15/8/14

Hello lovely Ladies!

I wanted to try something a little different for you, and give you the chance to spend an entire day with me on Saturday November 8th. scrapping up a storm and completing 4 gorgeous layouts in the one day!

These layouts are all created from the one pack of gorgeous Bo Bunny "Primrose" paper, and the only extras you'll need are some Tim Holtz ink in "Brushed Corduroy" and "Old Paper".  The kits cost approx $25.00, which we'll need you to pay for when you book in to the class now, and the rest of the cost of the day (class  costs and morning and afternoon tea etc) will probably be another $40.00 approx which will be confirmed closer to the class date and paid on the day- but represent a significant saving to what it would normally cost if we ran the classes over 4 weeks.

The papers are in shades of brown, pink, green and white and would be suitable for all sorts of photos-  women, vintage, family, little girls. deb, wedding, teens.......... most of the layouts could also have photos added later if required.

If you would like to treat yourself to a day of scrapping and go home with 4 layouts complete in the one day then please contact Di by Friday August 15th to reserve your kit. Kits are being ordered from the USA so we need to know numbers by that date to ensure we have the kits in stock.    Please contact Dianne by email-  dismale@bigpond.com.au or by calling 0404 266 296 to secure your place in the class. Please do not reply to this post.

Order your Kits Now for Narelle's next Class!

Hi lovely ladies!

Orders are now being taken for the Kits that we'll be using for my classes early in Term 3.  

It will be a two part class, where we'll complete a single layout on Friday August 8th, followed by a double layout on Friday August 22nd.  

There are two options for the kit-  either "That's my boy" which would suit any aged boy/male especially those teens boys (who are always hard to find paper ranges to scrap) or "Summer Bliss" which suits Summer or Girly photos.  Please let Di know which pack you would like to order when booking in for the class.

  

I have designed these classes to give you lots of freedom to "make them your own". For the single layout on August 8th you'll be able to decided which sides of the paper you use and the theme can be determined by which journal card you choose for the title.

 

For the double layout on August 22nd I'll be teaching you a technique to create a background using up all your scraps and everyone's layout will end up different depending on which paper scraps you choose!  Again, the theme will be determined by you when you select which journal cards you use!

 

Please contact Dianne by email-  dismale@bigpond.com.au or by calling 0404 266 296 to secure your place in the class. Please do not reply to this post.

Bookings now open- Narelle's May 2nd class

Hi Lovely ladies!

I'm back with some sneak peaks of my new class scheduled for
Friday May 2nd (10.30am or 7.00pm)

This class uses 4 papers from the Bo Bunny "Pincushion" range, in black and white with pops of green, apricot and orange.  When I was looking at what photos to use I knew the date of the class was going to be close to Mother's Day, so I looked for photos of my daughter and I together, but you could use any photo you like!

I have created two versions of the class (both of them are available for you to see at Scraphaven now).  One has clean lines and the other is quite distressed with lots of dimension.  The  measurements and materials will be the same so you can decide at the class which look you prefer to go with (but you'll need to bring a few extra tools and work quite quickly to get through the distressed version!)

We have already purchased the supplies for this class so places are strictly limited.  You'll need to book your place and pay your deposit now by emailing Dianne-  dismale@bigpond.com.au or calling 0404 266 296 to secure your place in class. Please do not reply to this post.

Sneak Peaks of Narelle's "happy Go Lucky" classes for March 21st & 28th

Hi Lovely Ladies!

I've been busy scrapping this weekend and have put together our classes for March 21st and 28th, using the Fancy Pants "Happy Go Lucky" range!

For March 21st we will be creating a single layout with a "Happy / Smile" type theme and you'll need a 10cm x 15cm and a 10cm x 7.5cm landscape photo, or you could probably also use a 10x15cm portrait photo. 

For the class on March 28th we will be creating a double layout.  I had a request for a class with a layout that has space for lots of photos and this one certainly meets that criteria-  my layout has 18 photos on it, thanks to a lift the flap section! (Which could also be used to hide journalling, invitations, maps.... whatever you like!)  The theme for this one is quite neutral-  I used holiday photos but you could make it photos from a party, a family reunion, a wedding- whatever you have lots of photos of that you want to get on a layout.

For the front of the layout you need:-

2 - 10cm x 15cm Portrait photos

2- 10cm x 15cm Landscape Photos

2- 10cm x 7.5cm Landscape photos.

For the inside flap you have 2 spaces that measure approx 23cm x 26cm that you can use for typed journalling or more photos ( I have lots more photos in mine which you can see at the class on March 21st!)

The layouts will be available for you to see in the shop on Friday, so pop in and have a closer look and start working out what photos you are going to use!  

I'll post a full list of the materials you'll need to bring along next week..

Blessings,

Sneak Peaks of Narelle's 2014 classes!

Hi everyone

Here's some sneak peaks of my Term 1 classes  for 2014!

On February 7th (10.30am and 7.00pm) we'll be doing a Christmas class!  I've already created this class for you so you know what sort of photo you need to get your family to pose for this festive season!  You'll a 5x7 Portrait photo- so make sure you get the family gathered around the tree this Christmas!  The layout uses traditional Christmas colours and the word "joy" and the date.

This layout is now on display at Scraphaven so you can pop in and have a look and book your spot now (there is a very strictly limited number of kits for this and stock absolutely can not be reordered so we will need to ask you to pay your deposit to secure your spot in this class.  As I write this post there are only 10 kits left!!!).  With the limited number of kits available-  this will be an "in-store" only class.

My other set of classes for Term One are going to use the Fancy Pants Happy Go Lucky Range.  This will be a Kit Class where we'll be working with the kit that has been put together by Fancy Pants to create a couple of layouts over  two weeks on March 21st and March 28th ) 10.30am and 7.00pm.  We have pre-ordered some kits but cant be sure that we'll be able to get more, so to guarantee your spot in the class please see Di and pay your deposit for the class.

I wish you and your family a blessed Christmas and a year to come full of happiness and most importantly GOOD HEALTH!!

Blessings,

What you'll need for Narelle's class this Friday

Hi everyone

Here's some very generous sneak peak images of the double layout we'll be completing this week.

For the photos you'll need:-

• One 5x7 Landscape
• Three 6x 4 Landscapes or a combination of 3x4 portrait images (as an example in the girl layout above I have used four portrait images and one landscape, and in the boy layout below I have used 3 6x4 landscapes)
• Please note in the images that the right hand side of the 5x7 photo has paper overlapping it, as does about one quarter of one of the 6x4 landscape photos.
• For this class its definitely going to be best to bring your photos along on the day.  Adding them later is going to be much trickier.

You'll also need to bring:-

• Your MME Kit and enamel dots from last week's class
• Paper trimmer 
• Ruler
• Scissors
• Double sided tape
• Black, Dark Grey or Charcoal Ink

This week's class layout is based on this sketch by BasicGrey sketch artist Susan Stringfellow.
