The Ladies Crafting Afternoon



























The other day I went of to do a demo with the ladies from the Church. We had a great afternoon and this is what they made








These are some of the projects I have finished and I just hope I will be able to do more soon

I have been a bit busy


I have been busy trying to find the time to do everything I would like to do. Firstly my painting, then my cardmaking, never quite know which one to do first. then I love knitting, walking,swimming, reading, blogging,cooking. Now I have added a new one. I went star gazing on Saturday Evening and saw Mars and Jupiter for the first time, also an awful lot of stars.It was amazing. I am off to the Science Museum tomorrow for a follow up on star gazing. There is a special exhibition on and it only lasts to the end of January. I am sorry I have not had the time to be a better blogger but I will try harder.

Busy busy




Hi all


I told you I was a bad blogger, Well I have an excuse this time.


My exhibition has kicked of with a sale on the second day. The gent that bought it is taking it back to Barzel in Switzerland. I am thrilled as you can imagine,


Secondly I have been demonsrating to a group of ladies in Puerta de la Cruz, oh what fun we had yesterday. Iris folding was the technique and we did the Christmas tree. Then they used the apeture to make a second card which we placed on the card with 3mm decoupage squares. All the ladies were chuffed with there cards and had earmarked who they were going to send them to.

How cool is that. I am so excited. Above is a painting I did a while back and it will be in the Exhibition.

Tims Computer card


I have made this card for my other halfs Sons Birthday. I had to cut out the cars in CS2 then put them in a folder and I produced the card in Word. I am not sure if this is the correct way or not but it worked for me.

Decoupage Cat


This is a sheet I have used from Penny Wessnauer collection. Penny is such a kind person she allows you all to use her sheets. I have used her sheets over the last 2 or 3 years and I go back time and time again to use her work. Like me Penny loves Teabag folding and you will find loads of different ways to fold a tile at Pennies.

This is a card I made from a photograph my sister sent to me of the basket of livingstone daisies she grew in her garden.

This is a card I made a while ago. I think it is great for a little girl. I did enjoy doing the iris folding.
