Scrapathon mini album

At last I am able to upload some of the pictures of the mini album we created at our Pics 'n Tales Scrapathon on Friday night... Sorry for the delay, girls!!

The idea was to keep it simple and "clean", use lots of stamping and lots of "white space", and also to scrap on the photo, instead of the background page. Here are a few examples:







Since we did not give the album a specific title, the theme was really up to each individual. In the end, all the albums were about loved ones. Our significant others, children, grandchildren, siblings and families. They all looked different but they all had one thing in common: they were made with love, and were GORGEOUS!


Well done girls, for staying 'till breakfast, and thank you for a wonderful time. We should do this again soon (as in next year...)!

Scrapapthon time again!

Yip, it is time for our annual Scrapathon again! We will be teaching three classes, to take us right through the night on 15 June! We will have a special fathers day card and gift class, a single page layout and an entire mini album, all to be completed before the sun rises on the 16th! To keep us awake, we will also have lucky draws right through the night, a lovely dinner and breakfast, and of course, the crazy conversation of ten tired but creative women! We still have 1 spot available, so please book your kits before it is too late!

Here is another picture of some of the detail on yesterday's "Boys" layout, showing some of the detail of the mini booklet for additional photos.



The mini truck is just too adorable for words!

Boys and their toys

This new kit uses the adorable Echo Park "This and That" range of paper and stickers. The colour scheme is cream, brown and teal.  Ink was sprayed on the background cardstock to create a bit of interest, and then I added more detail with stiching and a bit of bling.


A fold out booklet provides space for lots of extra photos. Any photos of the boys / men in your life, with their toys, will work well on this layout. Kits are available from info@picsntales.co.za for R225.
