TRICK OR RETREAT CHALLENGE 4 - THE SPIDERS WEB

 

CHALLENGE 4 - THE SPIDERS WEB

Spooky season isn't spooky without a few webs here and there but unlike spiders we can't spin our own so this challenge will have you digging out your needle and thread.

We challenge you to sew, stitch or add thread to your layout which we'd then like to see you add to the Challenge 4 album in our Facebook group so we can leave you some lovely comments.

Katherine shares another fab page of her illustrating this challenge,

Your first class of today is up next with Karen at 10am.

Trick or retreat class 3 with Tricia

Good evening Campers 

Welcome to Class 3 of this special retreat.  I'll be using Paige Evans 'Take the scenic route' papers which has a great mix of elements and phrases to celebrate the everyday to special days out and about.  Bursting with colour geometric shapes and floral elements. 

These are also a lot of fun elements in the papers to give you plenty of scope for titles and ways to steer the layout topics in different directions.

I'll be creating 3 pages with you with 3 different themes to show the range of the papers so grab your kit and lets go. Instructions can be found here

CHALLENGE 2 - TRICK OR RETREAT

Time for your second challenge - Trick or Retreat

Alas we don't get to meet in person this weekend for our usual Autumn retreat so our first challenge this evening is to scrap a photo from a previous retreat. If you've not been to one of our retreats or cannot find a photo just scrap one of you crafting - you can take one right now!.

Don't forget to upload your entries into the Challenge 2 album on our Facebook group. And if you have just snapped a photo of you creating for the challenge - pop this in the album too so we can all see you!

Trick or ReTreat Class 2 with Mel

 Hello everyone and welcome to my first class of the weekend. I'm so disappointed not to be able to see you all in person and share lots of laughs, scrappy inspiration and general fun with you all but it can't be helped and we will just keep on making lemonade from lemons as we enjoy a weekend packed full of online fun.

My first class uses the gorgeous Cocoa Vanilla Studios Daydream products and I've created three layouts with it, It's early in the weekend and this is what I like to call the Pat Bailey class - For those that don't know her Pat is a long time retreat go-er who requests some fairly straight forward cut and stick classes for early on the Friday as a warm up before heading in to anything more technical, complicated or messy!

I hope you enjoy these three easy going layouts - the instructions can be found here.

Do join us over on the ATDML # Create page for chat and fun throughout the weekend

TRICK OR RETREAT CLASS 1 - WITH ANN

Oh my lovely scrapbookers how I wish we were at Stoke by Nayland right now all settled in for the weekend but alas it was not to be. Positive side of this is that those who would not otherwise be able to join us this weekend get to craft along with us, and whilst we can't see each other for real we are all scrapping along together from the safety of our own homes. 

So first off, if you missed the live on Facebook launching this class, here I am and a warm welcome to you all this weekend. I've been with ATDML quite a number of years now and love designing classes so am hoping you will like this one as much as I did

So my first class is using Kaisercraft Workshop which is a fab masculine collection but quite versatile for scrapping lots of different subjects as well. I have made a whopping four pages and there is plently left for more so a very good value kit this one.

Take a look at the instructions HERE on how I pulled my pages together and feel free to change them up to suit - or indeed to scraplift with your own papers if you like.

We do have a gallery for you to share your class layouts - feel free to tag us and if you post on social media this weekend use #atdmltrickorretreat

Next class is at 8pm with Mel using gorgeous CCV Daydream papers 

TRICK OR RETREAT CHALLENGE 1 - FRANKENSTEIN

Good morning and a very warm welcome to you all for our Trick or Retreat cybercrop.

CHALLENGE 1 - FRANKENSTEIN ALTER THIS

At each retreat we have an alter this challenge where delegates take the same item and alter it into something else, usually with spectacular results! I thought long and hard about how we could replicate this challenge we usually do with all participants being at home.  We hope by chosing an item to alter that we will all have - a toilet roll tube or a kitchen roll tube - lots of you will be able to join in!

To give you time to do your research and get those creative juices flying we are launching this challenge now, ahead of the first class at 6pm tonight.  

Get your entries in the Challenge 1 gallery on Facebook by midday on Sunday 8th Nov to be in with a chance to win a prize.

Until then  may you have a happy Friday and we look forward to you joining us tonight at 6pm for your first class with Ann.
