Workshop Update ...

Hello there ;-)

Are you enjoying this glorious spring weather?  Just beautiful!  My fruit trees are all covered in blossoms, can't wait for the fruit to be ready to pick during summer, yummo!!

Next weekends Scrap'n'Roast, 20th September, won't be going ahead due to lack of bookings.  Oh well, we will all just have to watch the footy instead!

Page Map - Circles   $20
Thursday 25th September 1pm
The last scrapbooking workshop will be Thursday 25th September at 1pm - 3pm.  We have all now got the wonderful circle cutters from Martha Stewart, so I thought it appropriate that we create a layout with an abundance of circles in many sizes!
I found this wonderful page map on Pintrest, it had originally come from Basic Grey via
www.sketchsavvy.blogspot.com 
You will need 4 landscape photos @ 4"x6".
You will also need your basic tool kit, large and small Martha Stewart Circle Cutting system, inks, a large title, a border punch and a journaling pen.
We will spend a little time practising using the circle cutters as I know some of you haven't used them before.

Art Journaling This Week ... 12th September 2014

Hi my arty crafty friends :-)

This week we will be art journaling - yay!  
Friday 1-3pm and 7-9pm

I  found this gorgeous spread on you tube by France Papillon and loved it!  So, now to share it with you.  Of course, I didn't have everything that France had, so I've improvised a bit and have made some cute tissue paper tape for you and got out my stamp maker to create the larger butterfly stamp :-)
You will need to bring - 
Acrylic paint
Circle stencil (the paper one I made you ages ago)
Distress inks
Glimmermist
Tripletac
Journal pen
Stazon ink pad
Watercolour pencils
Chalks or Soft pastels
Makeup sponge
Water spray bottle
Background stamp (I used a small dots one I found in my stash)
Ink cube (I used gold)
Blending stump (cheap - I got a packet from Neds)

SALE...SALE...SALE...SALE
During workshops everything in store will be 30% off!!!!  
Everything has to go - all stock, paper racks and more!
Great time to stock up :-)

As you know I am struggling with my health issues at the moment, it's still early days so still sorting out medications and getting used to my new way of eating :-)  It is all quite a lot to wrap my head around, but I'm keeping my spirits up and experimenting in the kitchen everyday!   Anyway, due to this huge lifestyle change I have decided, after 13 years, to close down Made by Mandy Scrapbooking.  I thank you for all your support and custom over the years, the laughs, the tears and of course the creative times :-)

I hope to catch up with you all before I finish, until then...
Happy Scrapping,
Mandy :-)
