And for this week

Sorry to be a little late with next weeks lesson, I have had my darling G'daughters here today and have done lots of playing instead of crafting!! they are having a sleep over, both of them have been very good, we get to do it all over again next weekend too!  for Monday night I have finished off the card holder that we made the cards for last week, It is a lovely gift and I am sure it will be well received.  Don't forget to bring back the cards you made so that we can get everything to match.

Envelope greeting card holder

Hi everyone, this week we are making a card holder made from two envelopes, a terrific gift for your
non-cardmaking friends, it is sooooo simple to make, but the ones I have given out have been very well received! you can decorated them in any way you wish, a digi image, flowers, rubber stamps, I will have lots of choices on the day.  I leave next Thursday for Perth, I am going to visit a couple of friends of mine that I met at different workshops with Floral Punchcraft, it is lovely to be able to go and visit them, and I am really looking forward to it, although not to the heatwave they are having at the moment! it has been over 40C there for a week or more, I am really hoping it will break either before we arrrive, or not long after LOL, but I suppose we will cope.........we think we get it hot in NSW but our maximum is usually about 35C and that is too hot for a delicate little English girl like me!!

Table decoration

Seems ages and ages since I made a post on here, the last couple of weeks my class and I were doing christmas cards, and then last week we had a stamping up demo done for us by Rhonda
http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/rhondastatham/ and we all had a great time!! thanks Rhonda!!
This week we are back to punched flowers, here is a Xmas table decoration I made, the large red flowers are my version of the Tiger lily......all the others are just basic filler flowers, I had lots of fun making it and I hope you all do too

peekaboo box with miniature roses

Hello to all, getting in early this week for a change, here is a gift box with acetate window, I got the idea from
here:  http://www.scor-pal.com/

I decorated the top with miniature roses, the box is 3"x3" so you can work out how tiny they are.  The other box is stamped just to give you a choice on how you decorate the box.....it was fun to make and will make a great little gift (probably with a more sophisticated gift inside, the grandkids only had these lollies that I could use) See you all on Monday

Off the page

I am going to a friends baby shower on Sunday and the invitation asked for no presents but for information that we could share with the new Mum to let her know we were thinking about her and her new baby, this is what I came up with after a lot of deep thinking LOL, it was supposed to be a letter or some advice but I thought if it's something worth doing it is worth crafting!!

 The card for next weeks lesson is a pretty flower that looks like an open rose, here I have displayed it as a candle holder, but we will be putting it on a card.  I hope you will enjoy it!!

I have been able to spend a little time crafting this morning as hubby is in day surgery for a colonoscopy and gastroscopy..........I left him with the message to tell the nurses to make sure that they washed the tube between procedures!!!..............ha ha
