12 Hour Crop
Ok time for another tease - I hope you are enjoying these snippets its great fun for me too!!! I hope this one gets you guessing. I have a few more which I'll post during the week. See you all on Saturday.
12 Hour Crop - Information
Hi girls,
For those of you who are busy packing in preparation for next week, I know you are and its going to take you all week, supplies will be in and out of that bag like a yoyo! I'm trying to pack too, so here's a reminder of what you need to bring and details of the photos required etc:
Technique Journey - no photo's required
In a Material World - I photo only required, I mentioned 7"x5" on the instructions but a 6"x4" landscape will be fine, but no smaller than 6"X4".
Photo's sizes for the page maps that are suitable for both included kits :
Sketch 1 - 1 - 4"x6" (portrait) and 1 - 5"x3.5" (landscape) OR 6"x4" (landscape) and 1 - 3.5"x5" (portrait)
Sketch 2 - 1 - 6"x4" (landscape) OR 4"x6" (portrait)
The page maps can be rotated to create different layouts that's the reason for the different orientation of the photos. Colour schemes are summer brights and heritage blues.
Tools to bring for the classes, if you have them (don't worry if you don't we have some to share) are:
trimmer, scissors, fancy edge scissors (or pinking sheers - for those who sew), pokey tool, pencil, rubber, ruler, old credit card, adhesives (glue stick, double sided tapes and liquid glue), embossing tool or paper stump, foam embossing or stamp mat, your favourite background stamp, water spritizer.
Don't forget some lunch, a mug, some small embellishments to personalise your layouts and some money for the raffle and to purchase those essential cardstock and adhesives that you always run out of.
Looking forward to seeing your next week. Jackie and Chris

Jounaling Prompt for September
September seems to be a month for preparations. Preparing for my daughter to go to college for the first time, preparing for her first driving lesson, preparing the garden for winter and preparing the stuff for the 12 hour crop. What have you been preparing for this month? I managed to get down to the Harrogate papercraft show and came back with some new stash so I’ve been playing with it since. For the first time I’ve done some gilding..Try to incorporate something new into your journal pages this month.
For those that are art journaling I’ve been playing with ways to give texture to my pages. Try using ink and paint through stencils. They don’t have to be scrapbooking stencils, I’ve used alphabet stencils, sequin waste and plastic canvas for needlepoint and all give really good results. If your stencil has large holes you need to make sure you apply the ink or paint dry. If the stencil has smaller holes like the needlepoint canvas you might need to water the paint down a little. Don’t forget that the paint left on the top of the stencil can be used on pages to transfer the reverse image.
