Back to basics....



Hello, well, after my last post that made little sense, things got super busy and now they have righted themselves and I am back to normal (as if I was ever such a thing!!!)

This Sunday I will be travelling over to Ballinameela National school at the very luxurious time of 8.30am (its usually about 7, but since its Sunday we are taking it nice and easy) and there we will be doing a class called "Back to Basics".

You see, next month we are starting an amazing project that will take two classes to finish, uses a full 12x12 paper pack and a whole roll of tape.... and i'm not going to show you what it is yet!! well its an organiser/ journal kind of a thing that has a choice of beautiful papers ( i will show you piccys of those later)

So, in order to do that we need to be clear on the basics and since we have people of all different crafting levels (some brand new and some regular fabby dab ones -the new ones are fabby dab too by the way!)
we are going to make this......





Its a gatefold album with a different binding on each side. All the pages are different so there is a lot to practise, its in gorgeous BoBunny Alora paper which I love because its so bright and happy!

Ok....... i'll show you a little snippet of the next album....... 
yeah, I know, its tiny but the real thing will be at the class on Sunday if you want a really good look!

Right then, its next Sunday 27th October 11-5pm (told you it was a laid back start) Ballinameela National School, which is near Dungarvan, €30 for the day, bring lunch but tea, coffee and cake (Midi makes the best cake!) are supplied for the teabreaks.
You will need to bring scissors, cutting mat, knife, trimmer, score board, bone folder, pencil, ruler and wet glue. If you don't have any of those, don't worry, come anyway!
Midi will have her craft supply shop there so there will be retail therapy too.
Send me a message felicia(at)scrapzville(dot)com if you have any other questions or to book a place (3 left at the moment...)

Adios Folks! xxxxx

Today has been full of very tricky decisions........ with many different scenarios that all have different outcomes........but which one to choose? I am actually addled from thinking, I found this quote on Pinterest but it just addled me more since I love the life I have, but this new choice might be good too????
But aren't I lucky to have choices? Yes I am.

I know this makes no sense to anyone reading it.... sorry.

In fact, I think I shall follow the advice of this next Pin instead.
