CHARITY CROP

We are hosting a charity crop on November 21 - In support of ALS.

Includes: meals, snacks, beverages & prizes.

ALS: known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) is a degenerative, fatal neuromuscular disease. Messages sent to the brain via nerves are attacked thereby leaving the individual immobilized, eventually without breathing and swallowing ability; however, the mind of an individual with ALS stays completely alert (www.alsab.ca) Further information can be found on the ALS Society of Alberta website


~ Register early to avoid disappointment. Pre-payment and registration is required prior to day of workshop/crop.
If you want to attend, call to register at 780-406-4539 or come in to the store at 11320-137 Avenue and register.
We would love to see you there!

Waves

My coca-cola inspired layout.... Last week, i showed you a logo of coca-cola and wanted to create a layout inspired by it. Well, here is mine... I have a little wave of pink and orange midway through my layout - the same type of wave of pop that is seen on the coca cola image.

Layout

I have to say, I messed up. I created the layout for Thursday's sketch vs. Tuesday's. I am going to post my layout for Thursday as I don't want to miss a day, therefore I will post, this Thursday, the layout from last Tuesday....oh boy....I hope that makes sense?!

So, yes, I ended up creating a card based on the sketch. A really nice Christmas card. I used metallics paper, my Slice Machine, Inkadinkado stamps, and mirrored paper, which I ran through the Cuttlebug.

Sketch

I would say this sketch appears to be more of a card sketch than a layout, however, you can use it either way. There are definitely lots of layers in it.
Mine will be posted next week.
Sunday, due to the holiday, Thanksgiving, I will not post. However, will be back on Tuesday.
Have a great Thanksgiving Long Weekend.

Branding

Coca-Cola is possibly the best known brand out there. When you see the red and the wave you know its coke - a trusted brand. I thought we would use the brand to create a page for next week.
I found this image at Computer Arts Design Icon if you would like to read the article. Of course, i will post my layout next week.
