About Me

My photo
Hi, Welcome to my Blog. I'm an eclectic kind of crafter delving into many pots. I am just about managing to keep up my Scrapbooking Diary (usually about 6 months behind), plus any cards as required. I have a new found love of watercolour and Bible Journaling plus recently Junk Journaling too. Previously I've also dabbled in ATCs, Tags, Altered Books, Mixed Media, Art Journaling, Décopatch, Knitting, Crochet, and Embroidery amongst other things. I live in Surrey, UK with my husband, our son has left home now. For exercise I usually play Badminton and go Ballroom and Latin Dancing, but am plagued by a bad back. I like walking which I couple with Geocaching and sometimes Bouncing on my Rebounder (mini trampoline). I guess I am officially retired now. I am a born again Christian, currently worshiping at my local Vineyard Church.

March Craft Club




Unfortunately we had to postpone the February Craft Club as my son was ill but we resumed on the 2nd Monday in March for card making, banter and laughter.

We made our backgrounds from 5 strips of coloured paper.

There was a little bit of trouble in getting the strips cut straight on the paper trimmer but I made up the hummingbird card from some wonky strips with the spaces covered with 2 additional narrow strips.



We used white silhouette diecuts on top, and some coloured butterflies too.

We also used up the left over pieces from the strips to make mosaic toppers.








Here are some of the cards made on the day.
(if you click on the photos they should become bigger)


It is great to see that, despite all having the same diecuts to work with, all the cards still have their own personal style.



Next Craft Club is on Monday 14th April 2014.
