Crafting for the next fair!

Next fair is this coming Saturday! Once again we are at Heart of the Country in Swinfen, near Lichfield. Been making some new badges this evening.

Same fold...

...different theme. I really wish oriental themed cards sold, but they don't! So, I was really pleased to get a request for one! And an excuse to use this new fold again but with slightly different proportions. Really like this willow pattern set of images and coordinated papers. Think its another kanban set from the qvc shop.

Card for my BIL's 40th

Back to the kanban Great British papers! This is a new fold where you use a back-to-front smaller card inside a larger card with the front flap cut in half. Needs something to hold it flat in the envelope tho hence the addition of a ribbon. Glossy accented the numerals after I took the photo.

My MIL is 80 today

Made this card for one of her friends to give her. UK themed kanban kit, was only £2, complete bargain! :)

Gorjuss owl girl.

Picked up this fab stamp from the Hobbycraft sale. Making cards for a friend who orders a years cards all in one go!

Stamped image and coloured with copic ciao markers.
Selected four complimentary papers and outlined with black pen.
Layered papers, raising the top two with foam strips. This leaves enough room for the charm to sit smoothly when hanging from the eyelet.
Added eyelet tab and number tab to second layer of papers.
Printed name on third tab, using the pc, directly onto patterned paper. Attached to top layer.
Paper punched two borders to use either side.
Voila! :)

Merry Christmas!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas from Cartway Cards :)

Poppy cottage

Very specific request from a customer! Including an image of the happy couples cottage and the poppies in their garden.

New kitty picture

Part of a new picture for the fair this weekend. Come and see us? We'll be at st.Leonard's church this Saturday and Sunday. Lots of other things going on in bridgnorth that weekend if you fancy a day out. :)

Squeezing

Trying to squeeze in a few birthday cards between fair items...

20

Made 20 new little boxes this evening. At £1 each I'm hoping to sell them all! These are four of my favourites.
