June Competition Winner / July Competition

June Competition WINNER

A Huge Congratulations
to Nick on being drawn as the winner of the June contest to scrap the sketch of the month.  Nick's layout "Ballarat Wildlife Park" was uploaded to the gallery on the 20th of June.

June Comp Winner
For winning June's contest Nick has won a $50.00 Gift Voucher to spend in store or online.

July's Challenge is....
to use journaling or hidden journaling on a layout, card or beyond the page project.  The Journaling can be any length or topic. 
Here is an example of a simple layout with hidden journaling.DSC_3932 
DSC_3933 
This jouranling tag is tucked under the photo.  This is a photo of Ellie, Ruby and myself on the Scooby Doo ride at Movie World.  For over a year Ruby had debated whether she would go on the ride.  She knew that the only way she could come to Movie World that day was if she was prepared to go on the ride.  We got to the ride line up and she totally lost it crying and trying to run off so not to go on the ride.  I made her go on the ride as per the deal of going to Movie World and after one time on it she loved it and ended up going on it seven times that day.  When I look back at this picture in my album I want to remeber the story behind it and be able to share it with her in years to come.

To enter the July contest put up yor layout, card or Beyond the Page project with journaling or hidden journaling onto the gallery by midnight Friday 31st July 2009.  All entries will go into to the draw to win a $50.00 Gift Voucher.

We are loving the Kaisercraft Magazine...

Here is another layout done using the "Duchess" papers.  This was inspired from a layout in the magazine.  On our layout we have used American Craft Thickers to title the page and Kaisercraft Black Pearl Strips around the photo.

The Cricut Expressions

is not only fabulous for scrapbook layouts, card making and Beyond the Page items, it is also awesome for School Projects. 
DSC_0013 
The title and the grass were cut out using the Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge.  This is one of the cartridges that comes with the machine.
DSC_0018 
On this project the "Koala" title and the koala bear were cut out using the Zooballoo Cartridge.  The minor title "Habitat Threats" was cut out using the Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge.

The Cricuit Expressions is so flexible.  Being able to cut out alphabets and images from 1/2" to 12" means it's so easy to make any kind of project.
