Happy Easter!

Spending Easter Sunday at Swinfen nr Lichfield again! Nothing much open elsewhere so hoping for a busy day at the Craft Fair :) Looking forward to it!

Camera card for Gordon

Card order finished, zoom lens comes through a hole in the front of the card, there's another camera inside. Camera made from paper piecing.

Craft fair in the snow.

Set off in the snow this morning! Think we deserved a prize for motivation! Darn chilly but we managed almost 7 hours regardless. It was 0.5 degrees C when we packed up the car! Had a good day but hopefully we'll get some better weather when we return to Heart of the Country at Swinfen on March 30th. Before then though is a charity fair at Shifnal Methodist Church on Saturday 23rd March (afternoon only.)  If you fancy popping in you'd be most welcome :)

Be Prepared.

Scouting card done! Now need to make a few extra bits and pieces for the fair on Sunday.

Postage stamp sized kitty...

Preparing things for the craft fair on Sunday. (10th March)

Painting a swimmer

Trying to combo people's interests to make the card uber appropriate! This is a small unfinished watercolour using watercolour pencils, and mock brush & palette also using the pencils. Wording printed via computer. Added glitter and pearl bling.

Simple half fold using Kraft brown card. 18cmx18cm. Freebie magazine papers in leaf pattern layered on pearlescent brown paper.

Sunnycroft

These are pen drawings of the kitchen in Sunnycroft. Sunnycroft is a National Trust property in Shropshire. The recipient is a volunteer who works in the kitchen.

Three different bike cards!

Do you think there is a world record for making bicycle cards? Three more made this evening. One using some excellent bike brads, another using a metallic bike bookmark and the third with a GB biking theme!
