SA Scrapbooking Convention 2007!

This years scrapbooking convention was at the Sandton convention centre. It was great fun! Kerry, Hayley, Yvonne and Simonne joined me. I love spending this weekend with my girl friends because we have loads of fun. We have 8 classes over two days. This year it was decided that we would only do 12X12 pages (to fit into an albumn)

We were so spoilt! The teachers were great. Some of the teachers were from the USA. I love listening and learning from them. Their lifestyle is so different.





This is JULIE AND ERIC COMSTOCK, they own tha company Cosmo Cricket. They named this company by scrambling the letters of their surname. How fun... you can try it too at htp://www.wordsmith.org. Nicole Clark is scrambled to

  • Local Nicker
  • Cola Crinkle
  • Clear Lick On
  • Call Core Ink




This is Donna Downey. I love her style. We did a really simmple page with lots of paint and pictures of the family. She taught us how to pose "Thin" for photos....I am not sure it worked!


This is STEPHANIE RAHMATULLA and SUEZI GURZI from "Me and my BIG ideas". They were both great fun.

My favourite class this year was WILNA FURSTENBERG. She is an ex South African who now lives in Canada. She gave us some great tips on journalling. She always writes a letter tot eh person in the picture and positions the weather and her mood inthe starting paragraph. It is fantastic to journal this way...ty it.


We then put all the things we learnt and took these fun pictures.
