Patterns From The Past

Today in amongst all the multi tasking I would like to share another of my Getaway Classes 'Patterns From The Past'... 'Get hooked on creating your mark in a class that will tear you away from any distractions, but do keep an eye on the wheel as we take you to the realms of the dressmaker. No garment making here we promise and non sewing folk won't need to be pinned down to enjoy and complete this technique!' There is a cool little tool included in this class which we will be using in many different ways, I am really looking forward to this one:D Lx

Getaway!

Our feet have not touched the ground getting ready for the Getaway the last couple of months but as of today the Kits are all packed and classes all designed and the Forum on the Clubhouse is live and buzzing! Although hard work and long hours I really do love the end result and the time spent with delegates chatting, teaching and getting to know each and every GoGo Getaway girlie:D I am really looking forward to teaching my three classes and am especially excited about this one: Step Into My Garden 'Wander through our garden gate and let us welcome you to a dimensional delight captured within the confines of 12x12 Layout. Take a moment to mould your story and set the stage to celebrate the stepping stones of life.' This class has some little surprises along the way and I really enjoyed putting this one together:D Lx

I really enjoyed creating this LO, the photos reminded me so much of the fun we had that day! Create & Hybrids I was in my element when cutting out the Hybrids for the LO, they are such fun and a perfect partner to the Enchanted Woods Kit and ideal to compliment the photos of Harry and Simon on a day out at Bressingham Gardens. Cutting and trimming patterned paper to create a grass effect brings fun and texture to a LO, by simple snipping of 'v' shapes a really quirky feel can be achieved. Hybrid heaven should have been the name of this LO I think:lol:
