Play Date!

After seeing the lovely Stampin Up stuff on the web I decided to google and find if there were any demonstraters in the area. Imagine my surprise, when I found the lovely Carole who is based in Oxford, only lived 5 mins away! I became a follower on her blog and saw she was going to be at Newbury on Saturday, so we would miss each other as I  was going Sunday. It turned out she was there Sunday anyway but hey ho, I left a message on her blog and she invited me around to make a card this afternoon.  If you check out her blog she made some lovely butterflies from toilet roll! You would never guess to look at it and it just shows how resourceful crafters are! Here are the pics on my make and take today!

They were misted, dried and cut out and then embossed, aren't they lovely!

I also made a card following Carole's instructions, any wobbly bits are entirely down to me!

Those that know me , know I have hurt my neck and have been suffering for a few weeks. Carole has created an acrylic panel with foam pads which makes it much easier to stamp! I haven't put a pic on in case she wants to patent it  :) but you can contact her on her blog if you are interested.

So thank you Carole for making me feel so very welcome and giving up some of your afternoon to do a make and take!
