Give Aways and Kit Sneaks!!!!


Hello Ladies!

Guess What?!
IT’S GIVEAWAY TIME!
We’re giving away free stuff! Yep, free. But there’s a catch.
As you know Saturday is the first day of our Victorian Masters Tour and it’s at Geelong. We still have a few spots left so if you can help us fill those spots you will be rewarded with a bag of goodies. If you get one person to go you get one bag of goodies. If you get three people to go you get three bags of goodies.
So help spread the word! Share this info on your blog or facebook or just call or text your friends. When they book, tell them to say you sent them and we’ll get the goodie bags to you. 

Quick! 
There’s not much time!


Everything is organised and Saturday is going to be a great day
of teaching, scrapbooking and fun! 
There will be a giveaway during each class with some lovely goodies donated by our sponsors,
and a BBQ lunch is provided for those staying the whole day.

Just so you get an idea of what you will be creating with, we decided to 
share some pictures of each Class' kit.

Twiddleybitz Chipboard.
Our Twiddleybitz journey started 3 years ago. From the very beginning Twiddleybitz has earned recognition from being an innovative leader in chipboard craft products to their competitors. What we release is usable and practical in both page layouts and off... the page projects. This is what makes Twiddleybitz different: • Twiddleybitz was the first to bring out a 3 dimensional working chipboard product that could be used on a layout – Opening Gates. • Twiddleybitz are design leaders in Off the Page Projects – Free Standing Birdcage. Our off the page products are user friendly and easy to assemble – small shadow box. • We try not to follow ‘ the bandwagon’ so to speak, we design unique cuts. • Regular National advertising with one of Australia’s leading scrapbooking magazines.

Who wants to see some sneaks???


Hello everyone!
I think it's time to share some sneaks of these classes.
Just so you know what you can expect to create come August/September!



If you look below you will see so many different mediums used in various ways to create three very different styles.  Attend all three classes at the discounted price and learn them all, including taking away so many different products that you can create these looks time and time again in your own individual way!

Sweet as a Pea - Leonie Neal-Dawson
I had such fun creating this layout for the class, it
involves using a range of different mediums and of course 
a beautiful bright colour palette.


Dylusions Dreaming - Heather McMahon
 What a delightful page Heather has created.
I think I want to take this class myself!!!  It looks fabulous!
The colours and design are suitable as either a boy or girl page.


A bit of Boyish Charm - Beck Beattie
Just take a look at Beck's awesome dimension in this
sneak.  Everything is beautifully finished and executed,
such a lovely page.

Welcome...

Hello and welcome to our blog. 
Beck Beattie, Heather McMahon and myself (Leonie Neal-Dawson) are all current Scrapbooking Memories Masters living in Victoria.  
I'm sure I can speak for all three of us when I say that becoming a Scrapbooking Memories Master was a scrappy dream come true and we have all been enjoying our year creating for the magazine.  
When we all discovered we lived within reasonable travelling distance of each other we decided to meet up and as you can image we chatted about anything and everything scrapbooking related for ages.  To meet like-minded, passionate scrapbookers is a wonderful thing.

So, among our chatting we came up with an idea that it would be fun to share some of the techniques and signature styles that each of us are known for in the scrapbooking community.  
We are all incredible grateful for the opportunities this year has presented us with and would like to return and spread some of our scrapbooking enthusiasm through a series of classes to be held at local scrapbooking stores.

This blog is primarily a means where we can spread the word and keep you up to date about when
and where these classes will he held.
Thank you for stopping by and if you're interested in attending or 
hosting any of our classes don't hesitate to contact us, 
all our details are top left of the blog.

Cheers.
Beck, Heather and Leonie.

P.S. We'll be back tomorrow with the date and venue for the first set of classes.
