Counting Down to Our 2025 All Day Scrap

 Hello Everyone

Only 12 sleeps to go until our 2025 All Day Scrap (Saturday 5th April), but who's counting!!

I am delighted to be sharing some of the beautiful Caddys and Mini Albums I have made for this event.

We still have a few seats left if you would like to join us. 

At the end of my Show and Tell, I will include some information for those Ladies who will be spending the day with Karyn Shultz and myself. 

First up, I would like to share Karyn's projects for the day with you. She has designed some very cute little mini albums which sit in their own little box. Her second project for the day is not one but two of her beautiful layouts. We both are delighted that Karyn will be using products from Coco Vanilla - our favorite Australian Company. 

As you can see from the images above, the colours are beautiful and fresh. I am sure you are going to love creating these mini albums and layouts. Karyn is a favorite among the ladies who attend our All Day Scraps and I am delighted that she will be teaching with me again this year. 

Now for sharing my projects. I decided to do a Caddy which holds a mini album that matches the theme of the Caddy. My goal was to create 20 different Caddy's and Albums by the All Day Scrap. The ladies attending the day, are going to choose one to do on the day, then purchase any others they like.

So here are some of the ones I have finished! I have used papers from Graphic 45. In fact, I have used over 2500 sheets which have gone into the 330 kits I am working on. 

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's World Fair Collection and is Travel themed.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Master Detective Collection and is Male themed.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Raining Cats and Dogs Collection and is perfect for a loved family Pet (Dog).

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's The Beach is Calling Collection and is Beach themed.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Safari Adventure Collection and is African/Zoo themed. I used it to remember a day at the zoo with my Grandchildren. 

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from a few different Graphic 45's Collections and is Paris themed.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Fairie Collection and is perfect for a little girl as it is Fairie themed. I used it to celebrate my Granddaughters first birthday. 

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Little Women Collection and is Sister themed. I used it for a collection of photos of my four daughters growing up. 

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Woodland Friend Collection and is perfect for younger boys. I have used it to celebrate three of my Grandsons.  I have included a photo of the front of the album - the back is also decorated as beautifully.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from Graphic 45's Couture Collection. I have used it to celebrate my mother's life.  I have included a photo of the front of the album - the back is also decorated as beautifully.

This Caddy and Album is made using papers from a few different Graphic 45's Collection and is Garden themed. I have included a photo of the front of the album - the back is also decorated as beautifully.

I am still working on more of the Caddys, just doing some finishing touches. I will hopefully share some more later this week. 

Now for some information for the Ladies attending. 

We have changed out location for the All Day Scrap this year.

The address is 

The Edwardstown Baptist Church (not at Edwardstown)

49 Dorene St (corner of Dorene St and Rothesay Av)

St Marys.

The doors will open at 8.30am with the first class starting at 9am. Morning Tea and Lunch is included. Leah is cooking some beautiful mini cakes and tarts for the morning tea, and I will be making my pasties for Lunch. 

Karyn and I are looking forward to seeing you all again. For those attending for the first time - we are both looking forward to meeting you.

Can you please bring the following items to the day.

Basic Scrapbooking kit - including a pencil, ruler in inches, scoreboard, bone folder, glue and double sided tape in different widths. I will have tape for sale on the day if you don't have a wide one. 

We still have a few spaces left, so if you would like to join us, then contact me on 0416053688 and I can book you in over the phone.

See you soon

Very Excited to be announcing our 2025 All Day Scrap

 Hello Everyone

Plans are well underway for our 2025 All Day Scrap. 

We are holding our All Day Scrap on Saturday 5th of April.  

We have the changed location of our event to the 

Edwardstown Baptist Church, 

49 Dorene St, ST MARYS (not Edwardstown). 

The Church is very modern with a wonderful space for us to use. There is plenty of room, great lighting, windows and high ceilings. There are even couches for you to sit on - if you get time. Parking will not be a problem as there are two large car parks for us to use. 

 I am delighted to have found such a lovely venue for our day.

Karyn Shultz is joining me again and she has chosen to use one of Coco Vanillas newer collections for her two projects. She has designed two beautiful layouts and a couple of mini albums/mini books to sit in their own little box.

I have included a photo of her two gorgeous mini albums/books in the box. 

I really love this collection, the colours are so vivid. Karyn's mini albums/books are always a hit with the ladies she teaches. Karyn's kit includes enough bits and pieces for you to make more than the two she has designed for you.

I have decided to use Graphic 45 for my project which consists of two parts. I have always had a fascination for boxes and what they hold.  You never know what is inside until you open the lid. So, for this year's all-day scrap, I am making one of my favorite projects - a hinged caddy box with a mini album inside.

The caddy has four metal feet and metal hinges on the back, the lid flips up to open it. 

The mini album has 22 pages - with room for photos and quotes. I normally only include instructions for the front of the album and make you do the back. But for the all-day scrap, I am giving you instructions for the front and back of the album. I also decided to make 20 different themed caddy's and matching mini albums.

To make it even easier for you, I have cut all the papers for covering the caddy and the papers for the album pages for every kit on our laser machine. I have even cut the photo matts as well. This will save time on the day but also mean that you don't have to worry too much about the sizes you need to cut. 

I have designed caddy's and albums for the following themes and will do more posts showing them as I get them finished.

1. Baby
2. Beach
3. Bees (garden)
4. Botanical Teatime (wedding)
5. Catch of the Day (Day at the Beach)
6. Couture (Ancestry)
7. Daisy (Family)
8. Elegance (female)
9. Fairie Dust (little Girl)
10. Home Sweet Home
11. Little Women (Sisters)
12. Master Detective (male)
13. Paris (trip to Paris)
14. Princess (little Girl - Teen)
15. Raining Cats and Dogs (pets)
16. Safari (Africa or trip to Zoo)
17. School
18. St Nicholas (Christmas)
19. Woodland Friends (little Boy)
20. World Fair (travel)

This will allow you to choose one on the day that suits you, rather than me trying to design a caddy and album to suit everyone. Photos can be added later on. 

I have about 350 kits so there will be lots for everyone to choose one and to purchase more on the day. 

Cost of the day is $155, you will receive enough product to make 2 layouts and 2 mini books and box from Karyn and one caddy and album from me. You also get a thank you gift for attending.

Leah will be providing a yummy morning tea and a delicious Lunch which is included in the cost of the day. 

To attend - all you need to do is book online at 

www.seriouslyscrapbooking.net.au/products/all-day-scrap-for-2025

 

At this stage - you need to pay the deposit of $35, this holds you a seat, and gives me an idea of how many projects, thank you gifts and pasties I need to make. You can pay in full if you wish. 

Full payment needs to be finalized by 28th of February. There are a few options for making payments. 

Karyn and I would love to have you join us for a full day of scrapbooking, catching up with friends and lots of fine food.

For more information or just to chat about the day, you can ring me on 0416053688.

Hope to see you there

New Kits online

 Hello Everyone

I have finally uploaded all the leftover tag kits from Our All Day Scrap along with some other projects. 

They are listed under "New Instore". I have popped images of a few of the tags here. 

Tag 21

All the tag kits include everything you need to make them. All the chipboard has been painted, stamped and sprayed. Detailed instructions are included along with step-by-step instructions. Each kit also includes a chipboard piece for a second photo to go below each of your tags and a strip of chipboard to go under an affirmation at the top of each tag. You only need these if you intend to place your tags in a frame. 

Tag 15.

Tag 7.

Tag 32.

Tag 2.

I have also included some samples of the tags in frames with the photo below and the affirmations above. 

Frames can be purchased from Spotlight and are available in natural or white. The one shown above is an A4 size and will hold four tags. 

This is a frame I did for my children's weddings. 

The other kit I have released is my Shabby Patchwork Pieces bundle ($185). I did this quite a few years ago, but a few ladies asked me to make them a kit. I have made an extra 10 kits then it is all done, and I will not be making any more EVER. 

This beautiful, framed piece is perfect for a wedding or baby. I have used it for four of my children's wedding and will re-work the large middle panel so I can fit four smaller photos on it. But for now, I have shown it here as it is in the kit. 

For this project you need a 50cmx50cm frame from Ikea or Spotlight and a piece of matt board for mounting all your squares and photos on. 

The bundle is made up of 6 kits and includes squares for your photos. Each kit includes everything you need to make your squares. All your chipboard and charms have been sprayed white. Detailed instructions with photos are included in each kit along with the instructions for putting it all together. 

I will be putting some more kits online as the week goes by - along with lots of my Graphic 45 papers.

See you again soon.

Only Six Sleeps to go!!!!!!!!!!!

 Hello Everyone

Where have these past weeks gone, and so much for me promising to share tags every week. What was I thinking when I offered to do that! 

I have a stack on my table at the moment just waiting to be placed in frames. Still needing to make a few more this week. 

For those ladies joining us on Saturday - here is some information you need to know and may find helpful.

Our All Day Scrap is being held this coming Saturday 20th of April at the Cosgrove Hall, 40-50 York Ave, Clovelly Park.

Doors will open at 8.30am with the first class starting at 9.30am sharp. 

Please bring your basic scrapbooking kit, which should include the following items. 

Paper trimmer (12 inches), mix of adhesives tapes (wide and narrow), glue, ruler in inches, pencil, scissors, hole punch, bone folder or scoring tool cork or rubber mat along with a paper piecer. 

Stuart will be arriving with his coffee machine on the back of his bike for morning tea. Morning tea and lunch are included along with tea & coffee (self-serve table set up all day). Please bring your own water bottle.

Kate will be running the shop and I have been making scrapbooking kits, sorting out papers, embellishments and much much more. There should be something to tempt everyone. 

Karyn and I will have a chat with you at the start of the day, then we are going to leave it up to you as to which project you do first. 

Once everyone has chosen their 3 tags - the rest will be available for you to purchase at a special all day scrap price of $10 per tag kit. I have made over 1000 kits so there will be plenty to go around. The rest will be available online at Seriously Scrapbooking website for around $12-$15 per tag.

Karyn and I had a catch up on Saturday and we are both looking forward to seeing everyone and excited to be sharing our beautiful projects with you. We both have spent a lot of time and love creating our projects and are looking forward to watching you enjoying creating them. The above album is Karyn's 1st project, and it is beautiful. 

If you have had trouble printing photos for the tags, then please bring your photos on a USB and I will have my printer on the day. I can resize photos and print them in black and white for you. Depending on demand - i should be able to do a couple of prints per person. 

Believe it or not, but I still have three seats spare if you are able to join us.

Make sure you have an early night Friday. For those traveling from the country - drive safe and make you have a break every hour. For those joining us from interstate - thank you for coming and travel sale. 

See you bright eyed and bushy tailed on Saturday!

Hugs

Jane

Counting down - Four Weeks to go!!!!

 
Hello Everyone

I have been crazy busy teaching classes, creating projects and working on the tags for the All Day Scrap. I am doing over 1000 kits - I haven't added an extra zero, I really am doing over a thousand kits. 

This week I am going to share four tags, which I have done for my daughter's family. She has three boys and I love the tags I have made for her. 

This frame contains tags 20, 8, 10 and 30.

Tag 20: A Boy is a Joy

I love this tag which I have done for D. The metal robot charm is quite charming! His photo is 3 1/4 inches high x 2 1/2 inches wide. Your person can be wider but not wider than 3 1/4 inches wide. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter.  

Tag 8: Hear me Roar!

This tag is proving to be very popular. Some of the ladies attending have been choosing their tags and this one is a favorite. S photo is 3 3/4 inches high x 1 1/2 inches wide. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

Tag 10: You light up our Life.

I have made this tag for J. I got him to sit on the dining room table and place his hand on the table. It's important that your person sitting on the table crosses their legs. Your photo for this tag needs to be 5 inches high x 2 1/2 inches wide.  I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

I made a second one for J showing him sitting on the table with his hands on his knees. 

Tag 30:

I love this photo of my family. Lots of beautiful Imaginarium Designs chipboard on this tag. I have painted and stamped all the chipboard in the kits for you. 

Your family group can be up to 5 inches high x 2 7/8 inches wide.  I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

If you are attending Our All Day Scrap on the 20th April, then make sure you choose your three tags and let me know. If you live in Adelaide, then pop in to my place and you can choose them beforehand. I can help you with your photos if you need it. 

We still have some spare seats for our All Day Scrap. Karyn Shultz is also teaching on the day with me and has two very beautiful projects for you. She has chosen a collection from Simple Stories for her projects.  Please contact me on 0416053688 for more information. 

See you next week with another set of tags.

Thanks

6 Weeks To Go

 Hello Everyone

Not sure what happened about last week, but it seems to have disappeared. 

Getting back on Track now. 

This week I am sharing some tags that I have done for one of my grandsons. This frame will sit on a shelf in his room. 

This frame contains Tags 29, 4 & 1.

Tag 29: This tag is quite gorgeous with a stack of cogs and metals. The compass at the top actually works! For this tag - your person needs to be around 3 inches high. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

Tag 4: I love this photo of H. I got him to sit on a table and place it hand flat on the table. This means he can sit on something on a tag and his hand can rest on something. Again, I used cogs both chipboard and metal. I have painted and stamped all the cogs for you. For this tag - your person needs to be around 5 inches high. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter.

Tag 1: This is the tag that everyone attending the All Day Scrap will be making. You will have to do a bit of the mixed media techniques yourself. Your persons need to be 3 1/4 inches high (Left) and 4 inches high (Right).

Tag 1: This is to show you that you can do the tags with different persons combinations. This photo is of my three girls when they were quite small. 

Remember if you are attending our All Day Scrap, you need to be keeping track of the tags you like and sorting out your photos. You need to choose 3 more tags to be part of your kit along with tag 1. If you need help sizing or printing your photos, then get in touch with me on 0416053688.

The list of ladies buying the bundle is growing so if you can't make up your mind then this may be an option for you. You can put them on lay-by and make payments before the day.

I still have around 6 seats left for our All Day Scrap, which is being held on the 20th of April. 

I am delighted to have Karyn Shultz teaching with me on the day. The projects Karyn will be teaching are a beautiful mini album and layouts. 

The cost of the day is $155 and is amazing value. This includes a full day scrapbooking, 3-4 stunning projects along with the frame for your tags. Morning tea, lunch and a thank you gift is also included. 

If you would like to join us for this year's event, then give me a ring on 0416053688 and I can give you some more information. 

See you next week for another set of tags. 

thanks

Jane

8 Weeks To Go And Counting down.

 Hello Everyone

Sorry this post is a bit late, I have been a bit busy working on the kits for our tags. I am wanting to share another three tags with you. 

Our All Day Scrap is being held on the 20th of April and we still have a few seats left if you would like to join us. 

Here are three of my tags. 

Tag 16. This tag is one I have made using a photo of my youngest daughter. I used a beautiful bunch of flowers for this tag. They are handmade by skilled artisans. These flowers are part of a program to provide employment to underprivileged women in rural parts of India. For this tag you need a photo 3 1/4 inches high and around 2 1/4 - 2 3/4 inches wide. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter.  The images don't really show you how 3D the tags are. The look much better when you hold them or see them in the frames. 

Tag 17. I made this tag for a photo of my daughter and grandchildren. I used some French ribbon for my tag. My photo is 3 inches high x 3 - 3 1/4 inches wide. I converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

Tag 28. I have made this tag twice so you can see how tags can be done with different photos to the ones I have used. I used a beautiful bunch of flowers for this tag. They are handmade by skilled artisans. These flowers are part of a program to provide employment to underprivileged women in rural parts of India. There is also a tiny glass heart jar. For this tag, I used a photo of two of my grandchildren sitting on our deck. Their photo is 4 inches high x 2 1/4 inches wide. Your photo needs to only be 2 1/4 inches wide if you want to fit your heart glass jar next to it. I converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

I made this second tag upside down as I am wanting to do a frame with 8 tags in it. The bottom four tags need to hang with the top of the tag pointing down. I used a photo of my five children taken quite a few years ago. My photo is 4 inches high x 3 1/4 inches wide. I converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. For this tag I had to move things around a bit but both tags look just as lovely both ways. 

Remember if you are attending our All Day Scrap, you need to be working out which tags you want to have in your kit. You are needing to choose three out of all the tags I have made. A few ladies have ordered the Tag Kit Bundle, which will give them one of every tag + a FREE pot of Finabairs heavy gel medium ($35).

If you need help with your photos, then contact me and I can print them for you.  

If you would like to join us on the day, then give me a ring on 08 82771298 and I can give you some more information.

See you next week with another set.

Thanks.

9 Weeks to go until our 2024 All Day Scrap.

 Hello everyone.

We have 9 weeks left until our 2024 All Day Scrap and this week I am wanting to share another set of my tags. This frame is for one of my families.

At the All Day Scrap, you will receive a 12-inch square frame like the one below as part of your kit. You can choose three tags to go in your frame, along with one I have chosen for you to do on the day. You will also get a kit so you can do a layout using the fourth tag. 

The frame below shows how the tags are placed - with a smaller photo below and a guote above each tag. I have some lovely quotes for you to choose from. As long as you bring some photos - you should be able to make a few on your tags on the day. Each kit includes detailed instructions. 

I have chosen some of my favourite photos of my daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren. 

Tag 5: This tag is for S and I love the attitude she shows just by sitting on the edge of the table. When taking a photo for this tag, ask your persons to place a hand on the table. Remember if your person is little, make sure someone is close by so they don't fall off. Her photo is 4 1/4 inches high. I have converted a colour photo to black and white, then sharpened it and made it a bit brighter. 

  

Tag 31: I took this photo earlier this year when I was visiting. It is a lovely photo of them all. For this tag your persons need to be 4 inches high and around 2 2/4 inches wide. I converted their photo to black and white, sharpened it and made it a big brighter. For this tag, I have used one of my favorite large key charms. Although it is hard to see in the photo - the end of the key has the word love on it. 

                                                                                                                         

Tag 12: When my granddaughter was last visiting me, she sorted out a heap of flowers for her tag. I got her to sit on a table and I got down low enough to have her looking straight into the camera - rather than me standing up and looking down on her. Again, you can see the attitude - arms crossed and head on an angle. When taking a photo of someone sitting, make sure their legs are crossed. It looks a bit neater. For this tag your persons needs to be under 4 1/2 inches high.  I converted her photo to black and white, sharpened it and made it a bit brighter.  

    If you like any of the above tags, then add them to your list. I have around 25-30 kits of each tag.   

We still have a few seats left for the day which is being held on Saturday 20th April and costs $155. The day includes your kits, morning tea, lunch and a thank you gift for attending. Karyn Shultz will also be teaching, and she has two lovely projects planned for you. 

Karyn with be sharing a mini book and two layouts using papers from Simple Stories. 

You can book online at Seriously Scrapbooking - just click on the 2024 All Day Scrap box on the home page. You can pay a non-refundable deposit of $35 to book your seat. Full payment must be received by the 30th March. you can ring 08 8277 1298 or 0416053688 for more information or to pay over the phone with a credit card. 

See you again next week with some more tags. 

Enjoy!
