OWL FUN

Had a 'cheer up' session today making ATCs following the news that I have a 'troublesome' heart!!

Nothing to worry about but it has to be investigated. I'm starting to live at the doctors and hospital just lately. Anyway, these little owls are really cheeky and I've had a ball making the cards.

Enjoy them and have a laugh with me.

CRAFTY ATC

I was looking for some inspiration yesterday and came across Tim Holts' 12 tags of Xmas 2007. Another set of fantastic techniques made into exquisite tags. Anyway, I decided to make an ATC based on one of these tags but with a crafty theme. Who better to front this theme than our very own Leonie.

Without her I would not have enjoyed the ATC experience, nor would I have made such lovely friends.

What do you think Leonie?

A TRIP TO DAWN'S

I don't need an excuse to visit the Dawn Bibby Design Studio and shop. I mean what crafter would?

My hubby had taken one of his helicopters to a place in Burnley for a diagnostic check and needed to pick it up yesterday. As Church, where Dawn's shop is, is only down the road, I just had to go with him, well didn't I?

Anyway, I really struggled (not) to find what I needed, but had no difficulty in finding things I wanted - you know what I mean I'm sure.

I managed to get some more of the new Tim Holtz alcohol inks. Just need 6 more of the lights and 5 of the brights then I have a full set! Ok I didn't need them but I really wanted them!!! It's the same, isn't it?

Managed another card yesterday. A lovely image and gorgeous Magenta papers. Just love the wine colour, it's so rich and warm. What do you think?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROSE

My friend and neighbour has a birthday today, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROSE.

BEAUTIFUL QUILT

Just have a look at this.

My ATC friend, Sylvia, who I met through Leonie's club, is not only a very talented paper crafter, but she can turn her hand to almost anything, including HAND SEWN PATCHWORK QUILTS.

Isn't this just gorgeous? She is now in the process of piecing another quilt which she is entering in a competition. I'd give her 1st prize ever time.
