Cluedo Cybercrop Class 14 Mrs Peacock in the Garden with the Pruning Shears

 

Welcome to the final class of the weekend and I hope you have enjoyed all the incredible classes and the challenges. (One challenge still to come so don't relax yet!) 

I am pleased to host this class working with one of my favourite collections ever, Simple Stories Weathered Garden. It's such a great collection and so flexible. 

I have three pages for you and here is one of them 



I hope that you enjoy the class and that, once you have made your wonderful creations, you will share them in our facebook group and on social media. 

You can find the class instructions HERE 

Now - one challenge left ladies  and we can't wait to see all of your fabulous pages.

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 13 - Miss Scarlet, in the Summer House, with the Globe


Good evening Gang!

Miss Scarlet here again, but this time I'm writing to you from Sunny Tenerife, whilst sipping on a margherita by the pool! (sorry, not sorry)

I hope you have been enjoying the crop, I know we all had a lot of fun creating the classes for you.

My class this evening brings you the beautiful and bright tones of a classic Vicki B range.
The Where to Next range is so fun too, with quirky little houses and lots of butterflies.




It's rare for me to put lots of photos on a layout, but I think it worked on this first page, which is perfect to document a day out in the city.  

My second page could work with almost any subject, and really celebrates the bright papers with a fun layering style.


Download the instructions for this class HERE

As always please do share your layouts with us, we honestly love seeing them.

And if you post on any social media platforms use the #atdmlcluedocybercrop. 

 

Cluedo Cybercrop Class12 - Professor Plum in the Greenhouse with the Poisonous Plants

 


Hello you should have come from The Candlestick Challenge and now I'd like to welcome you to Class 12!.  In  this class we create 2 layouts using Prima's Painted Floral papers.  There is inking and rolling and cutting out of some of the foiled butterflies.  The class is perfect for your garden photos.  Here are some peaks at what you will be creating.




As always do join in the chatter in our Facebook group and share your creations as we love to see them.




Cluedo Cybercrop Challenge 5 - The Candlestick

 


 Next up is Challenge 5 - The Candlestick

Whenever I think of Candlesticks I think of the Disney Character Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast who is an animated singing candlestick with a french accent. This is far more pleasant than thinking of it as a weapon in Cluedo! However how to make that link to a creative prompt for a challenge...hmmm....Maybe create a Disney themed layout? That is your first prompt for this challenge.



Alternatively your challenge (and this could be quite a challenge for some) is to use wax on your layout.. you can either add a wax seal embellishment, or melt and stamp in some wax to create your own embellishment - or use wax to create a resist technique combined with mixed media. For this you create a pattern/word on your background using a non-lit candle and then apply ink/paint over the top and the colours will not be visible where the wax was applied.

Whichever of these two challenge primpts you chose to use don't forget to upload your layout to the challenge 5 gallery on Facebook of course ensuring you have followed the few rules set out below.

1. Your layout must have been newly created for this challenge - please do not upload pages you have already made.

2. Your layout must be your own design (or please credit the original designer if you are scraplifting)

3. You can use whatever supplies you like for the layout

4. Layouts must be uploaded by midnight on Sunday 6th August 2023.

5. Please use #atdmlcluedocybercrop and #atdmlchallenge if you share to social media.

6. Have fun creating!!

DT member Katherine (aka Professor Plum) would like you to join her in the Greenhouse next for her class at 4pm.

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 11 - Reverend Green in the Market Square with the Ephemera Stacks

 


Dearly beloved, a warm welcome this blessed Sunday from Reverend Green - my busiest day of the week don't you know!!

My second cybercrop class uses 49 & Market papers to create a pair of layouts making the most of the fabulous ephemera packs included in the class kit. Lots of layering, lots of texture and some interactive elements too.



You can join in with your own stash and take inspiration from the class pages which can be found HERE or follow along the instructions to create the class exactly as I did.

Upload any pages you make based on this class - I would love to see them. We have a cybercrop classes album on our ATDML # Create Facebook page.

if you are posting on social media please do use the #atdmlcluedocybercrop and please credit our design team for their inspiration.

Cludo cybercrop Class 10 - Mrs White on the beach with the Surfboard.




Good morning Campers!!

I hope you enjoyed the first challenge of the day!

It's time now to chill out and relax...... with a bit of fussy cutting ;0)



This range from Prima has lots of beach accents but you don't have to have dipped your toes in the water recently as there is some lovely floral accents too!  Maybe you have been lucky enough to get away to the beach (local or not so local) or maybe you are living vicariously through Arial in the new Little Mermaid at the cinema.




This range of papers come with a STACK of accents cards that not only cover a range of titles but also are double sided with patterned backs to give you plenty of room to play with! For the third layout I wanted to recreate that boardwalk, flybilled, graffiti look with lots of layers and the selection in the cards came in very handy for this 



So let's head to the beach (or the kitchen table) click here and get going!!

 

Cluedo Cybercrop Challenge 4 - The Rope


 Moving on to Challenge 4 - The Rope

For this challenge we would like to see you use string or twine on your layouts (lets be honest rope may be just a little chunky!) Once created upload your layout to the challenge 4 gallery on Facebook of course ensuring you have followed the few rules set out below.

1. Your layout must have been newly created for this challenge - please do not upload pages you have already made.

2. Your layout must be your own design (or please credit the original designer if you are scraplifting)

3. You can use whatever supplies you like for the layout (but they must include string or twine)

4. Layouts must be uploaded by midnight on Sunday 6th August 2023.

5. Please use #atdmlcluedocybercrop and #atdmlchallenge if you share to social media.

6. Have fun creating!!

Mrs White (aka DT Member Tricia) will be with you at 10am on the Beach with her Surfboard.

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 9 Colonel Mustard behind the Beauty Backdrop with the Needle

 


Wadsworth, am I right in thinking there’s nobody else in this house?

Oh you're here too … hello there - ahem - good to see you although if one has a suspicious disposition one might wonder what you're doing wandering around at this time of the night? It seems you have found me behind the beauty backdrop adding a few finishing touches to my creations with one of my favourite tools - the needle!  The journaling phrases on the Heidi Swapp stickers were perfect to record daily Face time catch-ups with my daughter who lives away from home and the gorgeous floral papers from Webster's pages were perfect for adding a girly touch to the page.


Instructions to create this layout and others can be found here.

We'd love to examine the evidence of your efforts and so please share what you have done on the #ATDML Create Facebook page.  If you are sharing images inspired by any of the ATDML Cluedo cyber crop classes on social media,  please use the #atdmlcluedocypbercrop link.

Class 8 - Dr Black in the Apiary with the Killer Bees


Good evening sleuths, I hope you are enjoying the cybercrop so far. My second class uses the beautiful Tell The Bees collection which I enjoyed working with as it is a bit different to a lot of the collections currently available.

You can find the instructions for both my layouts HERE

Layout 1 features hexagons (well it is a Bee collection) and the template is also available in the folder with the instructions. If you print the template at A4 size you can cut out the hexagon to use as a template. However the exact size isn't crucial for this page so if you have a hexagon template or something hexagonal to draw around you could easily do that or even substitute the hexagons for squares or rectangles.

Come back at 10pm for the last class of the evening with Colonel Mustard and in the meantime don't forget to share your layouts in the challenge and class albums over on the Facebook Group ATDML # Create and across all social media with the hashtag #ATDMLCluedoCybercrop

Cluedo Cybercrop Challenge 3 - The Spanner

 


Welcome back to the next Challenge - The Spanner!

I promise not to throw one in the works 😉

For this challenge we want to see you create a layout featuring hexagons (the spanner when not used as a weapon in Cluedo adjusts nuts and bolts which are usually hexagonal in shape).  Once created upload your layout to the challenge 3 gallery on Facebook and make sure you have followed the few rules set out below.

1. Your layout must have been newly created for this challenge - please do not upload previous pages created.

2. Your layout must be your own design (or please credit the original designer if you are scraplifting)

3. You can use whatever supplies you like for the layout.

4. Layouts must be uploaded by midnight on Sunday 6th August 2023.

5. Please use #atdmlcluedocybercrop and #atdmlchallenge if you share to social media.

6. Have fun creating!!

Next up at 8pm Dr Black (aka our Mel) is bringing you a killer class! 

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 7 - Mrs White in the Dreamy loft with the Die cutter

 




Afternoon everyone!


I hope you have all been having a great weekend with lots of inspiring classes and challenges.

I'm up in the loft with Heidi Swapp's Dreamy range, and there is plenty to play with.... This kit comes with a mini stack of papers which will let you personalise my layouts to your own photos.  What's more it comes with this fab die-cut to give you maximum impact for your title. 



For the second layout I wanted to carry through that die-cut feel by cutting apertures into the page giving you some spaces to play with across your page, backfilling and add embellishments to fit your theme. 


This is very much a sketch class that gives you room to flip the colour and style to what works for your photos so grab your glue, click here and lets go!!




Cluedo Cybercrop Class 6 - Professor Plum in the Studio with the Craft Knife

 


Hello, I hope you are all enjoying our cyber crop.  You should have just completed Mrs Peacock's class and now we move into the Studio and dig out the craft knives!  

In this class we make 2 pages with the beautiful Hazy Days papers from 7 dots along with some lovely rub-ons and ephemera.  Below is our 2nd page which involves more mess, the first is nice and clean, letting the papers do all the work.


Be careful with those craft knives!


Remember to join in the chatter in our Facebook group and share your creations as we love to see them.
Be back at 4pm for Mrs White in the Dreamy Loft with the Die Cutter!

Cluedo Cyber Crop Class 5 Mrs Peacock in the Beach Hut with the Anchor

 

 


 

Mrs Peacock in the Beach Hut with the Anchor 

 

Welcome to class number 5 everyone with Mrs Peacock taking you on an 'ocean'journey  and exploring what went on in the Beach Hut. 

 The beautiful p13 Sea la vie papers are stunning and perfect for summer themed layouts. The class includes three pages but you will have loads left for at least another 2. 


This is one of the pages 



I hope that you enjoy the class and that, once you have made your wonderful creations, you wil share them in our facebook group and on social media. 

You can find the class instructions HERE 


Happy creating and your next class will be at 2.00 pm today with Professor Plum



Cluedo Cybercrop Class 4 - Miss Scarlet, in the Studio, with the Knife (and fork)

 


Happy Saturday!

The cheekiest suspect is here to kick you off today, with a class using the gorgeous Asuka Studio Happy Place collection.

I love an Asuka Studio collection, because there is always versatile elements, from florals to macarons, and from toast to lippy... this collection has it all!


And an absolutly stunning paper that brings a messy inky element without getting wet!


I've tried to showcase the papers, without drawing away from the photos.  
And there's an interactive element too!


I'm off to finish packing before I flee the scene of the crime, and jump on a plane to some sun! I really hope you enjoy the class, and I can't wait to see what you all create, so please do share with us.

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 3 Colonel Mustard in the Printing Room with the Scissors

 

Well hello all,   I wonder how many challenges you have conquered this evening? Whatever the figure I do hope you have been having a marvelous time so far and paper cuts, scissors snips or split glue incidents have been few and far between. As I said to Mrs Peacock, this is war .. ahem ... scrapping. Casualties are inevitable. You can not make an omelet without breaking eggs, every cook will tell you that.

As for this class, we will be sharpening up our scissors or craft knives and using these fabulous Vicki Boutin Printshop papers to showcase our photographs and preserve our memories.


Class instructions to make three layouts from this kit can be found here.

We'd love to examine the evidence of your efforts and so please share what you have done on the #ATDML Create Facebook page.  If you are sharing images inspired by any of the ATDML Cluedo cyber crop classes on social media,  please use the #atdmlcluedocypbercrop link.

Thank you.



Cluedo Cybercrop Class 2 - Dr Black in the Library with the Stack of Books

 Hello all, first I should introduce myself, I'm Doctor Black. Of course no one knows who that is but I'm the mysterious 7th character in Cluedo! (The perils of having a seven person DT and a theme we all loved but that only had 6 characters!)


For my first class of the weekend I worked with the Memory Place Book Lover collection which was a just lovely to work with. Included in the kit is a large cut file which I have been waiting to use in a kit for ages! 

As I'm in the library I am sharing the book based layout here but in the instructions you will find a second layout which is not book themed.


The instructions can be found HERE.

Please take time to share your creations with us in the ATDML # Create Facebook Group and if you are posting on social media please also use the #ATDMLCluedoCybercrop hashtag.

Come back at 10pm when Colonel Mustard will have been up to no good in the printing room!

Cluedo Cybercrop Class 1 - Reverend Green in the Garden with the Foiled Scroll

My class uses lush foiled papers from Prima where I have created 2 layouts from the Class Kit which was available to purchase on the ATDML website. If you are lucky there may be one or two kits left if you didn't grab one or you can recreate the pages using your own stash.

Class instructions for this Foiled Scroll class can be downloaded HERE and include tips on how to make the perfect paper scrolls to use on your layouts.


We love to see the layouts you make inspired by our classes so please do share them on our ATDML # Create Facebook page.
