Grab a cuppa


Hello My crafty friends, once again I am sorry for the lack of blogging- I've  been  really busy with getting  the new premises ready.

This post might be a long one , so get a cuppa and have a minute with me!   Here are a couple of photos of my conservatory, all packed up and ready to go last week! My house looks like I've moved out! This was only about half of it!


 
 Here was the empty (ish)  room on Bessell lane,  before I got my hands on it!


And here is the room now! (you can just see Scooby having a rest after a hard day) with his mummy)!
 
 


 
 
 

What do you think?

 
Here are a couple of cards done over the last couple of  weeks- this first one is from Marilyn using alcohol inks! a lot neater than the one I made! well done Marilyn.
 
 
This is a lovely card by Jo, who likes the distressed look, and really takes her time to get the card just right.

 
 
 This is I think the best card Marilyn has made so far- Exquisite! Again using creative expression stamp set.

 

 
Here we have a montage of cards made by Jennifer:
 


 
 
                 Here are the cards made this Friday by Jenny, Maureen and Glenis.
I haven't got a photo of the original card that the class worked with to show you- but I think the ones that Jenny and Maureen made were  better than the one I designed- the colour matching of the papers and the stamping in the orange colour is so perfect! 
 
I used stampin up inks- and the creative expression stamp set.
 
 PERFECTION!!
 
 I love the way Glenis offset the greeting, otherwise it could have got lost in the design- clever!


 
Ill try and be more efficient at taking photos (and blogging them for you to see) (honest)!!
I'm off now to start tidying the house- 
 
 One last photo- Brian and Darcy have found the smallest space to snuggle up into, ahh
 
Take care and see you soon.

    I think the new room is PURRFECT as our Scoobie would say what does your Scooby think! Can't wait to get back to get stuck in and see you all again. It looks so cozy and friendly. I showed the new room and cards to David well it is his computer I am using and he thought it was brilliant and the cards lovely so did I. Don't tell me I am green with envy that you did one using alcohol inks. Everyone seems very in the groove great to see cards by my old friends Marilyn, Jennifer and Jo. After next Tuesday I shall know what is what re medication and hopefully the following Tuesday I will get David to bring me to have a look and chat and hopefully I shall be back with you all very very shortly. Think up a real messy card for me!!!! David wants to know if the Welsh Dresser is a Stanley Woods, we used to have one but when we moved from a large house to our present small bungalow had to sell that and other stuff. No room. I bet your conservatory looks empty now what a big thing it was to organise everything but congratulations you have got it just right.
    Love and Hugs Twinkle see you sooooon.
