Serene Snowflakes


Good Afternoon Bloggers

Hope you've all had a good week, I'm rather pleased that my work week is over this week - seems to have taken a loooooooooong time to get to Friday but now that it has, it's time to play!

I'm off to the Shifnal Craft Fair tomorrow, if anyone is local or in the area for the day do pop in and say hello.

As I've officially done a few Christmas cards now I thought that I'd show you another that I've done as I think it's gorgeous........personal opinion and all that jazz.

Plane and simple (men's) Tree Trimmings (Christmas)

Good Afternoon All

Hope you're all well, personally I cant believe that we're half way through September and Christmas is only 70 odd working day's away.............

Today I decided that we'd use plane and simple (from the mini catalogue which ends 30th September) to make a men's card and then we'd move swiftly along to the season that's soon approaching, yip Christmas, with tree trimmings.

For the men's card we did a little shadowing which was gorgeous and we also did a little embossing.  The stamping of the goggles was done before the embossing to get the lovely embedded effect that's been achieved.

The tree trimings card is a fancy fold card which is very effective with this pretty christmas set.

Take a look and let me know what you think.

Greenhouse Garden & Butterfly Prints

Good Evening All

Hopefully you've all been having a fab day and are ready for a lovely evening.  Between the wind and rain in Shropshire today, I'm ready to settle down and relax.  Perhaps watch a little of the World Cup Rugby too.

Today's class was lovely, loads of chatting and making of two very pretty projects.  Not the most difficult projects we've ever done which meant that there was plenty time for chatting, drinking tea and of course eating cake!

For the first we used greenhouse garden and did a bit of layering using punches and embossing folders, for the second we did some emboss resist.

Take a look and let me know what you think.

Circle Circus Christmas


Good Morning All

Ok, so.....................I've finally given in and done my first Christmas card of the year!

I thought that I'd have a bit of a play with a few stamp set's that I really like and the result is below.  Circle Circus is such a versatile stamp set, anything goes really.

Build a Blossom & Blossom Petals Punch

Dear All

Hope you're all well and enjoying the remainder of the summer weather, if in the UK!  Here's to wishing it would stay till late October at the least.................

Had a great class this morning making an elegant card and gift box set.  Everyone did so well, espcially my visiting lady who'd not done much crafting before.  Lots of nattering and crafting, who could ask for a better morning!
