Romancing the Paper: Tutor Rachel Emilie Jackson

Cover

Way back in January, I mentioned to you how excited I was to be participating in a Crescendoh Creative Lab being tutored by Rachel Emilie Jackson called...

'Romancing the Paper'

I started off well, completing each class for the first few weeks and then school recommenced and I just didn't manage to get back to it with all my own lesson planning and organising to do.  When the recent school holidays started, I knew I wanted to get back to the classes I hadn't completed and finally make my pamphlet book.

Here it is... all finished!

Pages 2 & 3


Pages 4 & 5

Pages 6 & 7
I have learned so many new techniques in this class and would highly recommend it to anyone that admires Rachel's beautiful romantic style.

Tag Tuesday - A Bit of Fabric


'Hydrangea Princess'

A Bit of Fabric is the theme at Tag Tuesday this week - how fantastic!  You might already know that I love, love, love fabric.  I've been sorting things out in the 'studio' this past week (not that you would be able to tell after spending the day there today).  Anyway a tidy-up often reveals hidden treasures and I came across this fabric tag that been attached to a jacket I bought 5 odd years ago!  See it truly pays to never throw out anything because  you never know when it may come in handy!!!

I've just started participating in the online course 'Romancing The Paper' being taught be the very talented Rachel Emilie Jackson over at Crescendoh.  This week we have been learning about drying and preserving flowers.  It's been so much fun and I just had to include a hydrangea flower in my tag today, freshly pressed this week!
