Isabella Crop on Sunday 8 March

This months crop is a layout using bright colours so dig out those bright papers you have bought in the past and then on getting home realised that never in a month of sundays would you use them so this is the sunday to use them up.

There will be a layout at the crop which can be used to scrap lift as well as the usual supply of sketches etc

For those of you doing the min-book project dont forget you will need your February picture for this months layout.

February 8 Crop

For those of you that wish to join in then we will be starting a year long project as discussed at the last crop.

This will be a simple minibook with a page per month with enough space for 1 photo this way it should be fairly easy.

Materials needed are

Grey board for covers (should be available at crop)

4 x 12x12 cardstock for the pages

Patterned paper for pages (the example used the leftovers from a 6x6 pad of papers) plus a small amount of plain paper.

Instructions to be available at the crop

1st Crop of the New Year

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and that Santa gave you all you wished for!

Although it is hard to believe that a new year is starting Happy New Year to you all.

As we go into 2015 our crop will be on Sunday 11 January when no doubt we will be catching up on Christmas layouts.

Hope to see you there.

12 Hour Crop Saturday 8 November

Yes this saturday is the 12 Hour Crop.  If you are coming along then you will need to remember the following

The crop is from 9am to 9pm in the Isabella Centre, Blyth

The cost payable on the day is £10

There is no project so you will need to bring enough layouts & projects to keep you busy for the 12 Hours.

Tea, Coffee & biscuits will be available during the day.

You will need a packed lunch for mid day (there is a microwave available if required).

We usually send out for a take out for our evening meal so you will need some money for that.

As usual there will be access to all of the crops equipment (die cutting machines, silhouette, dies, stamps, inks, punches, stencils etc) as well as the "no profit shop" which has a small supply of basic items (papers, tapes, foam pads, dots & glue etc) which can be purchased.

The aim of the day is to complete some layouts or projects whilst having plenty of fun and games at the same time.

Hope to see you there.

Crop on Sunday 31 August

There is no project for the next crop but we are hoping that everyone will bring their scrapbook so that they can be viewed by the rest of those at the crop.  It is always nice to see what other scrappers have produced and you never know perhaps we can get ideas and inspirations from other layouts and if anyone sees a particular technique they are interested in then possibly a demonstration at a future crop.

So hopefully we will see you at the crop staggering in with arms full of stash and scrapbooks.

As always there will be the usual tools including die cutting machines, a large selection of dies, inks, stamps, embossing powders and a selection of layout templates from past projects.

Finally - tea, coffee and biscuits are available during the meeting.
