Memory Bugs Crop Day

I had a lovely day on Sunday with my friend Bek, and my sister and sister-in-law. We all went to the Memory Bugs crop day. It was a great day, really well organised. Tea and Coffee whenever we wanted, plenty of work space. A little shop area to buy supplies if required, pizza for lunch. What more could you ask for? Only $25 for the day, so really worthwhile. I managed to do 9 pages. Both my sister and sister-in-law won raffle prizes. Fiona even won a $15 voucher to spend at the shop. I bought 2 excellent display frames for 12x12 pages and they were only $15 each, so they are now proudly sitting in my scrap room.

Here are the layouts I did on the day:

This first one uses the new Been There Done That Papers and Rub ons from Aussie Scrap Source. I cut the brackets on the Silhouette digital cutting machine.



This LO uses a Hambly transparency as it's background. I used a Heidi Swapp Butterfly Mask to get the painted butterfly pattern down the side, and used Basic Grey Pheriphery paper for the photos. The other butterfly is a Jenni Bowlin one I painted and doecorated with Heidi Swapp Bling.

Finally got Jasmin's fourth birthday down on paper (she picked the paper from the local scrapbook shop):

Love this layout of Eliza's second birthday. I used a Hambly transparency and painted over a mask onto the transparency so that you could see the transparency pattern and the background paper. Love the big acetate letters too from Heidi Swapp.


Here are the great frames I bought for $15 each. I put in the double layout of Newcastle. Went crazy with the paint on the weekend. I used white rubons on white cardstock and then painted over to get the rubon showing through. Thanks to Jennifer McQuire for that idea!

Another layout using the new Aussie Been There Done That papers - with lighthouses on it! Love the Heidi Swapp Acetate - clear ones I added a bit of paint to give them definition around the edges.
