Hi there,

i have become a scrapbook fanatic over the last year, I love to see others pages and layouts as it helps me get ideas for pages. I went to a workshop the other night and we did quilt pages. they were so easy.

you need 3 complimentary colors. Color 1 will be your big centre square and corner squares and color 2 and 3 will be on the sides.
Cut from color 1 a 7 1/2 x 7 1/2 square. Cut from color 1 four 2 X2 sqaures
Cut from color 2, four 2x2 squares, then cut these 4 into 8 equal triangles.
Cut from color 3, four 2x2 squares, then cut these into 4 equal triangles.
Color 1 big square gets centred on a 12x12 page. Color 1, 4 squares go on the corners of the big square.
Color 2 and 3 triangles go on the sides.

Here is a pic to get a better idea

Had a scrapbook workshop again this weekend and they worked on Christmas layouts. This one was cute They used red gingham paper and cut out holly leaves from green. The edges were chlaked with black on the leaves to add depth. Buttons were used for berries

And yet anouther christmas page. This was done using the creative memory cutting system for the shapes. The trees were just triangles sliced in three and buttons added. Raffia was used for the bow.
