White with 1 July Challenge

I did this layout yesterday at Crop 4 a Cause. I got a whole 4 layouts done....YIPPEEEE!!! Although 2 of them are not finished, need to add some photos and extra's and the other I cannot show because I am submiting it for my Master's entry.

This layout it for the White with 1 Challenge

The criteria was white, purple and circles. I enjoyed making this.

The ribbon on the birdies wings was an idea I saw Kylie using as flowers....thanks Kylie..

Thanks again to Melissa for organising a great day. The meal is always awesome and there are always great prizes to be one...which three from our table did win :) ....go girls.

Here are the final classes I designed for Kaisercraft. Sadly I will not be designing any more classes. I really enjoy designing, it is my true passion in scrapbooking.

This is a Kaisercraft mirror done using Rustic Charm collection of papers.

A layout of my grandparents using the Sorbet range of papers.

Recipe Box using the Al a Carte range of papers.

This is a Matchbook Card which I am teaching next Saturday. This is the image of it open.

We had the launch party at Kaisercraft on Thursday night. This was an event for all our wholesale customers to get a look at our next releases and to pre-order them.....WOW WOW WOW!!!! What a night.... It was great to see so many people there to support us. There was such a buzz in the air and it seemed like everyone was thrilled with what is too come. Not long now and I will be able to post some layouts for you all to see....when I scrap them :)

Most of the Kasiercraft staff were there and it was a real success.... Thanks to Nicole who organised this event...also Mikala, Laine and Clare for designing such an AWESOME release of papers and products.
No scrapping to share...sorry....still trying to find that mojo...it seems to have taken off somewhere and is not coming back :)

The countdown begins

till the very exciting Q1 is released at Kaisercraft.....We are all sooooo excited about the new ranges due to hit stores on the 1st July.

Go here for a sneaky peeky

I personally cannot wait to scrap with these ranges... I am so keen to get my hands on the new prodcuts and get them scrapped to share with you all.....but....I and you will have to wait till the 1st July to see them. :)

Make sure you check back to see what I scrap.

I was also wondering if anyone is applying for the Scrapbooking Memories Masters this year??

I would love to hear from you if your are. Kylie and I have decided to give it ago. We have been encouraging each other to give it a go. I applied last year but did not make it in to the top 100. It was really hard work last year with some full on projects to be done. So after chatting with Kylie we decided "WHY NOT" give it a go..... its been fun so far. Good luck to all that enter...

Thanks for stopping by.
