A Great card made by my niece Anna, while she was with me in the Summer, it was for her Mum.
She used the heartfelt creations dogwood stamp & die set and the design of the card was taken from an idea from Martine of Oyster Stamps.

Last night we had a brilliant celebratory meal regarding work at the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, it was a lovely clear night and gave us some fab views. Unfortunately you can never do it justice with photos but these are the best I could get.






Had a super day at The Craft Barn on Saturday attending a Dreamweaver class with
Carol Cockbain. These are my efforts.

Carlys half term craft work




Due to my OH being out of work I have cut back on the amount of classes I am taking and
one we cut was the adult and child class at the GP. But that did not mean that I couldn't give
Carly her half term treat and to be honest it was nice for her to do something other than
stamping and colouring. This time she decoupaged and used the cuttlebug.She made 4 Easter cards and 1Wedding card for her Dad who is remarrying next month.
Hope you like her efforts. She has made more than me just lately.

Carly's Glitter pot experience




I took my God-daughter Carly (8yrs old) for a craft lesson at The Glitter pot during half term we were making cards with the Forever friends stamps, as you can see on some she has used the pens direct and others she has watercoloured. This was quite good for her in reflecting later at how you get a different finish.

Kay Carley class

This card is from a copics class I did with Kay, showing that although copics are known for their
vibrancy you can also create more pastel images with them to. Their is a 2nd card which I have coloured but not put together yet - watch this space.

Jane Gill Class part 2


These cards were made in the afternoon, also using a Hero Arts stamp. the first card was
a straight stamp, the 2nd one used shrink plastic. Unfortunately we were given a stamp pad that did not work well and unfortunately smudged. Staz on should have been used.

Jane Gill Class



The cards above were made at a class with Jane Gill, it was a last minute booking and very
enjoyable. A Hero arts stamp was used and the blue one was stamped onto acetate,

This is the lovely card received from Jenny M for the August Crafty Cow swap
Theme was 'seaside


I went to a beginners class for Pergamano at the Glitter Pot (like to try something new every now and again) Unfortunately the tool used for the tag had some rust on it and it came off onto the tag but never mind. I was really happy with the card though.

Crafty Cow forum - Sept card swap

Easter Card



Don't usually make Easter Cards, but they were doing this one at my regular craft class and as I have been in trouble for not making handmade cards for my folks recently I thought I would do this one for them and I am really pleased with it.

Happy Easter to you all.

Flower Punching



Here are two flowers made at a flower punch class on Saturday.
Chrysanth & Clematis will definitely be making more of these.

This is time consuming, but I feel the results are worth it.
