Take your designing to the next level

We are planning a very special Saturday class for 11th February 2017. 

Many of the ladies who come to both card making and scrapbooking classes seem to struggle when it comes to adapting designs or planning from scratch.

Now that might sound daunting - you know the feeling when faced with a blank page and asked to "just draw"on it. So we have carefully put together some basic but beautifully artistic guidelines that can be followed to get you started. We have recorded our own designing journey to get to the projects we will be making to highlight the process and show the ladies (hmmm nice to have some men!) one way of doing it. 

This whole day class is aimed at all crafters who would like to move their creativity to the next level. We will be teaching you some of foundations of what makes a design pleasing and how to adapt an idea to use the materials you have to hand.
We will be showing how one sketch can be transformed into several different formats, can be altered with use of colour, contrast and texture and re scaled to create different projects. We will “walk you through“ the whole process and give as much support as you need to give you the confidence to carry on at home.

Included in the class will be:
·         Option A : The “Lift Me Up” stamp set, the matching “Up and Away” thinlit dies, a  full pack of “Carried Away” designer series paper and Tombow glue all to take home with you at the end of the day. All these products are from Stampin’ Up!
·         Option B : The “Lift Me Up” stamp set only from Stampin’ Up! to take home with you at the end of the day.
·         All the other tools and supplies that you need to complete the three projects :
o   a large greetings card
o   a multi-fold greetings card
o   a 12” display or scrapbook page
·         Full small group tuition
·         Design and tutorial sheets
·         Tea, coffee and cake
·         A light lunch

When:         Saturday 11 February 2017   10.30 – 3.30
Where:       Bicknacre Village Memorial Hall
Cost:         Option A £75 per person 
                  Option B £56 per person

Back on the Blog

Hello World! I'm back on my blog and apologies for a long period of inactivity. Let's knock that on the head right away.
Been busy busy this week with Stampin Up! On stage at Telford with hundreds of other talented demonstrators sharing ideas and creativity. I can't wait ( but I have to) to share the NEW Spring Catalogue and the fabulous Sale-A-bration offers with you. We are sworn to secrecy until they go"live" but as Stampin Up demos we get ours early......and yes I have made a pre order already. If you want to be included in this fabulous "upgrade" as a demo ( and get discounts to boot) then CONTACT ME and join the Butterfly Belles team.
