Class 18 with Ann - Up (2009)

How can you not love this film? Just brilliant from Disney Pixar and inspired my class layouts using the lovely Maggie Holmes Bloom papers.

My layouts feature photos and elements predominantly "UP" at top of the page and have interactive elements which lift "UP" hence my choice of film title for this class.

Download the class instructions here and I promise you this class is easy to create with your own papers if you didn't manage to score yourself a class kit,

This is sadly your last class of the weekend but hopefully we have given you plenty to inspire some scrapbooking and get those memories into albums. Please do share you class layouts in the Facebook gallery - it is always one of my favourite parts of the weekend looking back and seeing what people have been inspired to make.

One more challenge to come though...so not quite the end. See you at 5pm!

Class 17 - The Great Outdoors with Katherine

We are nearly there...and this class is using the BRAND NEW Cabin Fever papers from Simple Stories.  Even though they having camping in mind, they are beautiful for any outdoors shots, I love the Starry night and woodgrain papers in this kit.

I was inspired by the circle design on one of the papers for this page.

Here is a bonus layout - it is bonus because you may have to switch the papers around depending on how you've cut etc. the papers from earlier on - I do use most of the Starry Night paper, but you will definitely have enough paper to make it.

Instructions can be found here

Only one more class left, remember to share all your creations with us - either link to you blog or pop them in our Facebook Album.

Challenge 5 - Star Wars (1977)

Well I thought I was young when the Pretty in Pink film came out, this one was release even earlier in 1977.

Challenge time again, and as you would expect from this film title we want to see your layouts feature stars. I have illustrated this below with a page I did for the gallery this time last year.

Another star inspired page from me to get you thinking - this one using strips of washi tape and paper to form a star shape as the feature of the page.

Again we ask you to save your completed layout in the challenge 5 gallery on Facebook once you have completed it and we could be selecting an entry at random to win a prize from Atdml. 

Challenges will remain open until midnight on Bank Holiday Monday 28th August to give you plenty of time to join in. 

Class 16 with Karen - The Notebook

I loved the name of this range of papers - Romance Novel Chapter 2 and what romantic film features a book - The Notebook of course.  This prompted my decision to make a mini album from this kit.

I have to say these papers rank highly in my Top Ten Ranges and I have used them before but absolutely adore the colours an patterns.  I saw the original of my mini album here and rather than reinvent the wheel, used this as the basis for my notebook.

Instructions for this class can be downloaded here.

There is another challenge at 2pm so check back in to see what Ann has in store for us.

Class 15 with Mel - Gridlocked

Hello and welcome to my third and final class of this cybercrop weekend. I hope you have enjoyed yourselves so far.

My last class is named after the (not very well known) film Gridlocked which appears to have been a vehicle for the man who played Wentworth Millers brother in Prison Break! 

 Layout one features a grid formation using different sized elements to create a block, it is a style I quite enjoy and have returned to in different forms over the years. It is also a good way to use a wide variety of patterns on your page while keeping them nicely contained!

The second layout in this class has absolutely nothing to do with grids and in complete contrast but I wanted to illustrate how the way you select elements from a collection can create quite contrasting looks.

Instructions can be found here

Don't forget to head over to the ATDML # Create Facebook group and share your creations. There are albums to share class layouts as well as individual albums for each of the challenges.

Happy Scrapping!

Class 14 with Debs - My Girl

Good Morning, how are we all doing on this fabulous weekend at the cinema? The 10 o'clock showing this morning features a film that will pull on your heartstrings - 'My Girl'

 

Hopefully this class won't leave you snivelling into your tissues though, as the title was inspired by the flowery feminine feel of the Simple Stories Hello Lovely range of papers and not its heart wrenching story line. 

In this class we will explore creating pages using highly patterned papers without overshadowing the photograph on your layout. 

Don't worry if you didn't manage to bag yourselves a kit in time, these designs can easily be adapted but I would challenge you to use a range of patterned papers. 

Full details and instructions can be found here. 

Remember you can post photographs of any class layouts you create on our thread in the 2017 Cybercrop Classes Facebook album.

Looking forward to seeing your pages.

Class 13 with Jane - The Queen

So we've reached class 13 - (good job 13 is my lucky number -well it's the date of my birthday)!  I was certainly lucky to be invited to a Royal garden party at Buckingham Palace this year so my next class is in honour of Her Majesty. This is a really simple book and I love the colour combination - a peachy pink the same colour as The Queen's dress, navy blues the same colour as my outfit and light blue the same colour as Kate's dress. I hope you are just as lucky with your photos!

Here's the front cover...

And some sneak peeks inside the book...

Instructions for the book can be found here...

I hope you will come back at 10am to join Debbie for class 14! Have fun!
