Paper weaving, spice cake and Vintage...........

Morning All

What a soggy old day outside in Shropshire UK today!  It's said that we're in drought but our garden is rather squiggy at present.  Oh well, we do need the rain.

Yesterday's class was fab, everyone had a great time, well............they did really after I'd managed to keep them quiet for a while with some paper weaving as they had to concentrate!  I'd never heard the class that quiet before.  Something different to try and the result is gorgeous.

We also did a vintage card, using some of the gorgeous SU vintage inspired products.

Take a peek and let me know what you think.

All a flutter, with punches & Medallion Stamp

Good Evening All

Hope you're all well.  What a gorgeous day it's been today, yes there have been some showers and a little wind about but we've had a fantastic day here in Shifnal today, not least because we had a fab class this morning which was greatly enjoyed by one and all.

For our first card, all a flutter with punches we used 3 different punches to create the shapes and two embossing folders for the patterns along with the stampin' pastels.  Very pretty end result.

Our second card was done using acetate and the medallion stamp.  Now we've never used acetate in class before so some found it a bit of a challenge and are not sure that they'll want to use it again but that's what coming to class is all about - learning new things and "stepping out of the box".

Hope you enjoy looking at our cards as much as we all enjoyed making them:

Good Afternoon All

Hope you're enjoying the April showers if you're in the UK.  Goodness, we sure are having 4 seasons in one day at present.

I thought I'd show you a pretty little card that I've recently made, the sentiment is certainly true when I'm crafting away in my little room - I do indeed "treat myself like my own best company".  A bit of card and ink and I'm one happy lady!
