Saturdays scrapbook class

To anyone coming to the class this saturday, the photo size is 1 6x4 portrait black and white. The paper has a more creamy background than I thought, so I have used cream as well as white in the layout. If you prefer sepia photos, that would work as well.  Photo theme can be whatever you like but there are flowers on the page so maybe not a male on his own, but anything else would go. Title is completely upto you and the class is technique based this month so an easy layout to give you time to play making the flowers.

Any questions, you can get me via the shop or on jackiedasilva07@gmail.com.

See you saturday

Well crafted Olympic Torch building

The Olympic torch has been a big homework project for a number of Wickford schools. We have had many children in this last week with their parents / grandparents to source various materials to make a torch. Here are two "torchbearers"- Kati...e and Jasmin who came back in to show off their work to their mum, Michelle.
Well done girls...and to nanny too!
It would be interesting to see what some of the others have made with their craft materials.
