The Scrapbooking Memories Vic Masters Tour follow-on

I was looking through my most recent copy of Scrapbooking Memories magazine and was delighted to see the number of people who attended our Victorian Masters Tour last year that have since been published in the magazine. I spotted Danni Vertigan, Judith Armstrong, Ros Madley and Alz Callcott in the latest edition. In previous editions I've seen Brenda Caldow, Lynn Good and Angela Sophios (ok Angela couldn't actually attend our classes cos she lives thousands of kms away, but she bought the kits. I think that counts!)

Who else has been published that attended our tour? Would love to hear from you.

Two out of the three of us that taught on that tour are also teaching at the Brisbane Scrapbooking Expo. For info on Beck's class click here and for my class click here.

Here are some sneaky peeks:

 

Congrats to all of you!

And speaking of teaching, in Vol 19, No 8 of Scrapbooking Memories mag, I wrote a short article about how to get heaps of journalling onto a page. Here's the layout I put with it.

Sometimes our layouts can be more about the story and less about the photos.

Happy Scrappin'!

Announcement from the Victorian Masters

We have had such an amazing time doing our Victorian Scrapbooking Memories Masters Techniques Tour! We had locals, regulars, people from interstate and some that may as well have been from interstate as they came from so far away, all brought together by the desire to learn some of our techniques. We are ever so grateful to you all. The tour would not have been possible without you coming along and supporting us.

Having said that, there are many that would have LOVED to come along, so we thought we would make up some extra kits for those that weren't able to make it. We have limited numbers of these for sale.

Kits are $35 each or $100 for all three + postage (at cost).  If you want to purchase two or three different kits we are getting together at the Manor House Retreat on the 4-6th October and can bring them there to give to you or we will get them together then and post them out to you the next week. This would mean you only pay one lot of postage.

If you don't want to leave a message on this blog you can contact me here.

Here are the layouts. Click on the links above each one to be taken to the individual blogs for more ideas and info.

We thought we would share some of the pics from the tour - we had a blast and hope you all did too!

We want to thank our wonderful sponsors again:

Scrappy Chat Designs
Twiddleybitz
2Crafty Chipboard

Our Vic Masters tour blog will remain active. We will use it to keep you updated as to what we are up to with regard to events and teaching.

Thanks again to those of you who came along. We had such amazingly positive responses from you all. I don't know who had more fun - the teachers or the students!

Happy scrapping!

Woohoo! Victorian Masters Tour - Day One

Hi all,

Sorry it's been a while since my last post - I've been a busy little Vegemite!

Part of the reason for my tardiness in posting is that we had the first day of our Masters Tour last Saturday. It was held at the Kasercraft Outlet at Geelong. What a day! I'm not sure who had the most fun- the students or the teachers!

Here are a few pics:

No sad faces in our classes!

Leonie showing how it's done. A bit more concentrating happening here!

 Prizewinners - gotta love freebies!

Hard at work - note Leonie posting pics on our Tour facebook page in the background. Nothing like a real time post!

Kaisercraft were amazing - they put on a bbq lunch for everyone and supplied delicious home-made goodies to keep our energy and sustenance up! I think the other stores on the tour had better start baking today as we now have very high expectations! Just joking Ballarat and Werribee!

We have had wonderful reports back from the ladies who came to the day which makes it all the more special for us. Thanks for being such a great group girls!

For anyone who's still thinking about joining us, the Ballarat day is on the 24th of August and the Werribee day is on the 7th of September. There are still some places left at Ballarat but we're almost full at Werribee. Drop me a line if you would like any more info or take a look at our blog http://vicmasterstour.blogspot.com.au/

Cheers,
Heather

Leonie had such fun creating this layout for the class. It involves using a range of different mediums and a beautiful, bright colour palette. Doesn't it look stunning?

Dylusions Dreaming - Heather McMahon
My layout uses techniques that you will be able to use in different ways to create your own unique layouts. The colours and design are suitable for either a male or female page.
