Online Art Journal Classes with Naomi Alchin

Image
 Hey Everyone, Life for me is so different now being a business owner now. Limited time to be able to craft and when I do it is generally at very weird times of the day. So when COVID-19 brought online classes to the scrapbooking world in a big way I decided that this was my only way to do something that I love. I have had so much fun in September and October with Naomi Alchin, a Guest Teacher with Natalie May Scapbooking . Here is what we have created in our September and October classes... My homework project with some of the leftovers from class So if you are a busy bee like me or even if you are not head here  Natalie May Scrapbooking Guest Teachers  to buy these classes...all online and lifetime access!!  Mel xo

CUT to YOU | Beach Days 🏝️

"CUT TO YOU | BEACH DAYS | MEL FIELD" Hey there everyone! Well, do I have some super inspiration for you today, all thanks to a whoopsie whilst cutting my cut file! For some reason, no idea why, my Silhouette chose to not cut this cut file correctly the first time. I was so disappointed but as it turns out…. all’s well that ends well. For this project, I have used the really cool title cut file from CUT to YOU called  “Beach Days”   It is the perfect cut file for those beach layouts but also those layouts that you have limited embellishments to use. I have used an old Kaisercraft collection, Sandy Toes, from my stash for this layout, I have limited supplies of it left but with this cut file, it really didn’t matter. I have backed the cut file simply with some of the patterned papers from the collection. I have used three photos on the front of this layout, which I have also backed with the patterned papers and made two of them into a flip-out to include two more photos. ...

  "CUT TO YOU | SUNSHINE ON MY MIND | MEL FIELD" Hey there everyone! Can you believe that we are halfway through November? Where has the year gone? I am so excited to share with you my projects this month. Given that here in Australia we are not far from Summer I thought I would create some fun Summer projects. Today I am sharing ‘Sunshine On My Mind.’ How cool is this cut file? Sunshine On My Mind Two in one. There are so many ways to use this cut file…I have decided to edit it a little on my Silhouette and cut the title section of the cut file smaller than the sun to suit my layout. It is so easy to do this once you have the cut file in your cutting machine’s software program. Have you ever tried? Being able to do this with cut files makes it so easy to adapt to each layout and make your creations different. It also makes each and every cut file versatile. I have backed the sun and title with gorgeous papers from the Pink Fresh collection of the same name ‘Sunshine On My Mi...

CUT to YOU | The Great Outdoors

  Hey! I am so excited to be sharing with you today my second September project for CUT to YOU ! If you follow me on socials you may have seen a sneak peak of the beginnings of this project…I had so much fun creating this and just am so happy with the end result! You might remember that just recently my son was lucky enough to spend two weeks in Switzerland as part of the Australian Contingent celebrating the 100 years of the Kandersteg International Scout Centre. They hiked almost every day, up to 40km and up extremely steep inclines BUT the scenery along the way made it all worthwhile. He had the most amazing time and made some great friends. Now I am left to live out his experiences scrapbooking his photos… to be honest, happy to leave the hiking all to him…as long as I have the photos!!! Anyway, I have used the absolutely awesome  Sketchy Circles Open   cut file for this layout and have cut it from plain black card stock. However, did you see that the lovely Gwen has ...
