I did it!

I survived the first class!

Thanks so much to Mum, Gran, Jenna and Maryruth for letting me teach you what I know, and also thanks for booking again! You are all awesome!

For all you other readers out there, I just have to tell you how good these girls were in my class! They all listened to what I had to say, and made me feel like I was actually helping them. I don't know if it was all a facade but anyway, we all had fun!

I made a sample page a little while ago, that you can see here. But when it came to the class, I tried to encourage the girls to use their own creativity. To put the bits and pieces where they thought it looked good. And all the pages turned out so different. I feel like such a proud Mumma that not only they completed their first pages, but they did it how they wanted to, AND they look darn good too!

Here are some pics for you to have a squiz at... sorry about the dodgy pics of them. It was late and I used the flash, so they are a bit bright, but at least you will get an idea of how good they are, much better than my first ever page that's for sure!

Mum's:
I love how she used the ribbon to draw attention into the pic.

Gran's:
I love her heartfelt journalling. It's beautiful!


Jenna's:
It's a bit hard to see because I took such a crappy photo of it, but this is a really funky page! Jenna created great visual interest with putting the E backwards, doesn't it look groovy?!

Maryruth's:
A wonky page to suit a wonky girl! Nah Maryruth, this is awesome! Lots of interesting bit to look at in this one!

Hope you all enjoyed looking at these masterpieces! There will be more to come. Our next class is booked for the 12th June at 7:30pm. We are making a keepsake tin! I have 4 spots still available, first in best dressed!

In other news: Saturday night the house was in a shambles, but all for a good cause! Ashca cut 2 teeth and Gemma cut one! The first teeth for both of them! Finally!
