Scrapping with the stars week 2 Ingvild Bolme style and another layout to share

I love Ingvild Bolme creations she is one of my favourite scrappers and she was the star for last week in Scrappin' patch's contest on at the moment.

Title - attitude is everything
at least one piece of chipboard and at least one stamp, material must be included (not just a piece of trim) and cut out patterns from Patterned paper.

My Scrapping News and a layout

Just a short post about my news will go further into it once I have broadband back! I am now Scottie Crafts first Scrapbooking Tutor and my first class is Thursday next week - I am a bit nervous as it is my first time teaching but at the same time very excited. The first four classes are about scrapbooking boys something that I hear often from people that they find trickier then scrapbooking girls. I find it trickier but scrapbooking tools and the fact that more and more manufacturers are bringing a lot more boy related products has helped and who says you can't put flowers on a boys page!

Here is a layout that I have done for Scrappin' Patch's new Stars in their Eyes contest - the first week was to do a layout Steph Devlin Style (this week is Ingvild Bolme)
