Next Week...20 September 2010

Good morning Scrappers!

What a busy week - unfortunately, not too much scrapping happening!  Looking forward to Scrap'n'Roast tomorrow night so I can get my hands onto some scrapbooking stuff and start creating!!!

We had a great workshop this week and I took photos of the all pages...head over to the gallery or facebook to see all the variations, they are just fantastic!  Did you know you can add photos of your work to the Made by Mandy Facebook group if you have joined it?  It's a wonderful way to share your work with friends who can't see it in person.  If you need some help uploading your photos, just ask, I'm more than happy to give you a hand.

Scrap'n'Roast   $16   Saturday 18th September 4pm - Midnight
There are three places for tomorrow evenings Scrap'n'Roast.  If you are interested, please ring or email me to book in.  A wonderful fun evening, 8 hours of scrapping with a Roast Dinner!!  Everyone always has so much fun, loads of talking and laughing, scrapping ideas all around! Because of school holidays and my next theatre engagement the next scrap'n'roast is not until 23rd October!!! 

Speaking of the next show - if you are interested, here is the link for more information and ticket booking.  The show is 'And the World Goes Round' and the band is on the stage, so you will actually be able to see us! I even have to do some backup vocals in one piece - scary with my voice...there is a reason I play an instrument!!! 
“Sometimes you’re happy and sometimes you’re sad – but the world goes ’round.” Life – with its glories, indignities, hopes and quiet dreams – is the subject of this stunning revue of the beloved songs of John Kander and Fred Ebb.

Next Week's Workshop....
TAKING IT TO THE EDGE   $16
Monday 7-9pm; Wednesday 12.30-2.30pm and Thursday 9.30-11.30am

So - how do you dress up a plain background paper to match the theme of your photos??? You stamp like a mad woman possessed - muhahahahaha!!!!  Learn how to very simply change the look & theme of any paper with simple stamping around the edges of your page.  You will need  3 photos - 1@4x6” Landscape; 1@4x6” Portrait & 1@2½x3¼” Portrait.  You will also need your basic tool kit, a stamp, a border punch, edge distressor, title, inks, paper piecer and any extra embellishments that will suit your theme (I cut out music notes & used some glitter music notes as well).
A bit of a teaser for the Fantastic Fun Crop Day to be held on the 30th October from 10am-4pm...
This fun day replaces the Fiskars day with Michelle.  All bookings for the Fiskars day have been cancelled and I have started the bookings afresh.  If you would like to come along for the day, making this Faux Paperbag Mini Album, $15 includes the basic kit, embellishments extra or byo (I will let you know exactly what is needed closer to the day), bring a plate of lunch to share, coffee/tea/milo/water available all day, wonderful company and you will complete a mini album (same papers as pictured) that will hold over 20 photos!!!!  Bookings are essential. 

That's all for this week.  Have a great weekend.  If you are down at the Breakout Creek Wetlands at Lockleys on Saturday morning, come over to the main marquee and wave to the band - I'll be there!

Happy Scrapping,
Mandy
