Prima Classes with Trisha


Hee Haw, I got to take one of Trisha's classes this past weekend and it was fun! We sure learned a lot; enjoyed flocking; working with embossed chipboard; lots of fun stuff. I thought this page might be too busy for my liking, but I love how this turned out. Love the new Prima products and especially the flowers.


Cool tags and very cool flocking; can't wait until this arrives at JSI.

Blessings!


Julie


ps...I know I am trying to get more simplistic in my scrapbooking and then I take a class with Trish. LOL

you're trying to go simplistic?! And here I'm trying to get away from that, and stock up with my layouts! Too funny.

I have somewhat started your challenge to me....I have been keeping my eye out for patterned papers that I like together. I have found quite a few! I'm even pretty excited about them!

I started my new baby album gift last night...small 4x8 book so I found it very challenging to start. How am I supposed to use multiple papers on this?! I even have some that are just two patterned papers....hey it's a start. I'll let you know when I have a few album pages posted if you'd like. (Hoping to take some photos today after work.)

Your thinking too hard Chris (LOL) - just slap those patterened papers down and add a ribbon in a colour they both have. Ink it up with catseye inks to blend the two or three pattern papers together. Thats the fun of scrapbooking.

I think being simplistic but still having a classy page is a real challange...I have a few on the go..sitting on my desk, so maybe I just ought to get at them instead of spenging the time getting a web site up at Wordpress!! ...or maybe I should do some laundry..or empty the dishwasher.

Great Page!!!! I love it...and it still looks simple, and not to busy.

Julie Cortens said...

Angie, ya think? My idea of a simple page is something under an hour with lots of rest space on it. This page took 4 hrs and you can't even see the embossed chipboard under it. :) I love it...but not busy? LOL I am working on a really simple page right now...coming soon.

Love how this turned out! The colors are beautiful. Great job!

kristen said...

The last baby album I did was simple, same as the grad book I did. That is my simple and elegant....but it may not be the same idea as your simple and elegant. But you're right, I was thinkign too much. It was hard to get into, now I'm liking it!
