Jane's YUMMY!! tag book class

I wanted to post a few pictures of Jane's Gorgeous Tag book, now that the exhibition is over mum and I are going to have fun doing this. I had fantastic feedback from all the ladies who took the class on the day, I can't wait to do mine now.




I am looking forward to June already, I am waiting to hear from Brenda about her class for this month, which is going to be an acetate covered Beer Matt minibook using a Bind it all. I will email you all with the details as soon as I hear.

WOW What a MEGA Crop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW!! What a brilliant day, I loved every minute of it, even if I did seem a little stressed at the start.

A big thanks to everyone for making it the day it was and a Huge thanks to Angie (mum) who fed us well and entertained us too.

I have not laughed and relaxed and enjoyed anything as much in a long time.

A massive congrats. to Ali, who on her first crop with us won the Sketch competition. Well done it was a gorgeous layout, I cannot believe I don't have a picture of it but I will get one.

Well done to Helen my new Co-organiser for winning Boffin of the day getting the winnning score of 17 in the crop quiz, after a tie breaker price is right question against Lori.

Thank you so much to Jane who is not only our new class co-ordinator for the crop but also taught a fantastic minibook class pictures of which I will be putting up later.

Thanks again to all of you for making it such a fantastic day and also for enduring my first ever class.

Here are the first pictures of the day.

OUR CROP Sat 19th April 2008

What a great day ladies, what a great turn out, I think that is the most of us that have been together at one time and it made for a fab day.

Here are some pictures from our Day of creativity.
So first we have Lori, deep in thought over what promises to be a stunning layout.
Christina B and Brenda hard at work.
Christina P taking a hard earned break for some home made cake and a Cuppa.
Some of Our ladies sharing inspiration.
Beckie can be seen here, hard at work with the gorgeous Rusty Pickle Chocolate Bunny papers and a really cute picture of one of her daughters.
And here we have Annette and Judith, who got lost on the way here but when they made it they got straight down to creating. We were so busy we had to get another table out, Just incase anyone thought it was the equivalent of a naughty step. LOL . It was great to have Annette's sister Judith join us for this crop and she is now our out of town member and we hope she comes back to crop when she is visiting Annette again.
Everyone seems to be having a great day, I have just realised that Shona and Liz always have the end table, what do they know that I don't?
Linzie and Gail our two new starters hard at work. I hope you had a great day ladies.
I can't wait for the mega crop it will be such fun. Have a great Month everyone, it was a pleasure spending the day with you all.

2 Weeks till crop time!

It sounds like it will be quite a busy one this month which will be great. Helen where are you? I have not heard from Helen since before last crop when she was away at the ATDML retreat, has anyone else heard from her?

Speaking of Retreats I will be speaking to everyone who has been to retreats in the last 6 months and asking if they can do reviews for us which I can put up here on our blog.

Hope to see you all on the 19th.

Jay xx
