Class 1 - The Attic with Prima Pretty Pale & Ann Freeman


A huge welcome to you all as we kick off a weekend of cybcrcrop classes with your ATDML design team. I am up first with a couple of layouts using Prima Pretty Pale - a wonderfully vintage collection that reminded me older things you'd perhaps store in the attic and the colour tones of paper when it has been around for a while.  

You do not have to have purchased the kits to take part but can just take inspiration from the pages  made  - and please do share your pages with us.



Next up is Mel at 8pm with her first class of the weekend and hopefully you'll have seen we have already posted our first challenge. Enjoy and have fun, absolutely no stressing allowed!!

HOUSE & HOME CYBERCROP - CHALLENGE 1 - KEY TO THE DOOR

And we are off!

We have been so very much looking forward to sharing another summer cybcercrop with you all. The ATDML team have been hard at work behind the scenes coming up with a House & Home themed cybercrop where each class and challenge is named after a room, or location  (well most of them are tenous links but you'll get the idea!!)

We did sell kits for each of the classes but you don't have to have these to join in  - you can simply take inspiration from the pages being shared , use your own supplies and get your memories scrapped and in to those albums.

Kickstarting this weekend is challenge #1 - The key to the door.
As we start our house and home cybercrop we invite you to grab your keys and let yourself in for a weekend of crafting inspiration with ATDML. This challenge is to feature a key or keys somewhere on your layout or a door to a hidden element on your page.
The lovely Karen has done an example for you too


We have created some galleries over on our Facebook group so you can share your layouts when you are ready - and who knows, we may have a few prizes to give away!

Our first class is up at 6pm with Ann and we look forward to scrapping the weekend away with you.

IT'S TODAY!! OUR HOUSE & HOME CYBERCROP

We can't wait to welcome you at 5pm tonight when we kick off our annual cybercrop. 
15 classes
6 challenges
3 days
and a whole lot of scrappy fun!


See you at 5pm!!

Let's Wander

OK so we cannot wander far from home at the moment, but there is no limit to where we can go in our creativity.
This month I have been working with Vicki Boutin Let's Wander and it is just gorgeous and so versatile too.
I would like to share a few pages with you made with some of the collection, which you can find in store.

The colours are so lovely and vibrant and I liked the way they looked against a black background





 We are not going on holidays yet, but they are just as good for stay at home pages or day trips we might take nearer to home.

I loved the florals which leant themselves to fussy cutting so well.




 and they don't even have to be used for travel related pages at all




 I don't very often use patterned paper as a background, but the gorgeous hello paper just demanded to be used - it was so happy






and of course, it can be used for straight forward travel pages. I loved the sheet with all of the little frames which was so versatile to use.



So whether you are scrapping past vacations, day trips or just celebrating being at home, let Vicki Boutin take you wandering.

June Virtual crop class 3 with Tricia


Good afternoon campers 

Welcome to class three of today's Virtual crop.  

In this class today I'll be using Pink fresh 'Be you' range to create layers and a focus on geometric design and subtle titles.  The papers are full of tiled accents and nods to spring days so perfect for any photos that you may have taken recently.  I made use of the tiled feature in my second layout to accent some photos I took on my last Visit to Rome.



The first layout is based around a (socially distanced) walk I recently took with my Nephew. You can click here to head over to the instructions and see the 2nd layout.  





Don't forget to add your version over on the ATDML # Create Facebook page, we love seeing what you get up to.

June Virtual Crop Class 2 with Mel Hand

Hi Everyone and welcome to my class for the June Virtual Crop. This kit was great for some older summery photos that I hadn't got around to scrapping and I had a great time working with it.

The first layout is below and to see the second layout and to download the instructions you can click here.


Don't forget to share your creations over on the ATDML # Create Facebook page, we love seeing your interpretations of the class.

June Virtual Class by Karen Leahy

Hi everyone and I hope June is being kind to you all.
I am delighted to bring you a class with the beautiful Bo Bunny Sweet Moments papers. I love the colour in this range, though using it made me crave cake and sweeties!

The class has three pages for you to create and this is one of them.



I hope you enjoy the class and manage to stay away from the sweets (I failed miserably!)


As always you can find the instructions here
