Groovi

 Good Morning All

Wow, last day of January already, time is certainly flying.

I have two cards to show you today made with the fab Groovi system from Clarity stamp in the UK.

This is one of my fave plates, Agapanthus, love it.

The brad at the top has a butterfly on it gorgeous.


This one is using an off cut  to cut  a Butterfly, still makes a great card.
Again I used one Butterfly brad and two pearl ones.


I have finished another pram blanket for the charity.
I followed a YT video from Coco Bella Crochet called Alpine Stitch.
It's easy to follow and she explains very well too.

I also boxed up another set of 8 cards to go to them aswell.
I dropped them off on Monday along with some cartons of milk and baby wipes too.

Groovi

 Good Morning All

As this post goes live I will be sat at Liverpool Airport waiting to come home.

I have been to stay with my great friend Trudy and visit Mum and my sisters.

I have a card using Groovi work today.  I am back into the Groovi zone at present and really enjoying it.

This is one of the Italian plates for the border and sentiment on a picot cut circle.

Happy Sunday Challenge

 Good Morning All

Welcome back.

As this post goes live I shall be at Alicante airport for a flying visit to NW to see Mum and family.  As Mum is quite deaf now it is very hard as I cant talk to her on the phone.  One of my sisters does put her on video call on Whats app so I can see her and she can see me but her hearing is quite bad now.

****************

The challenge for my Craft Group this week is a 

Man or Boy card

My Card  What would I do without LOTV!!!! They are great for Man cards.

The gifts I gave out were Twix finger bars

Stamping

 Good Morning All

I am getting ready to go to UK to see the family on Sunday, just for afew days.  I have arranged it so that I dont miss any classes, so back on Wednesday  ready for Journaling on Thursday.

My card to day is a small  5x5.

Playing with my Oxides and a stamp set that my Friend Val was getting rid of and I thought the tree would be good for a Sympathy card.


One more for a charity box.

Crochet for Baby

 Good Morning All

When John and I were in the UK in December for his sons wedding I bulked out my return  suitcase with DK wool in a  lovely mint colour, great for baby blankets.

Here's three that I have crocheted for the charities.

This one is Mint, Cream and White.

A pattern form the Fiber Spider



Another pattern from the Fiber Spider



And finally a smaller one,  rectangle shape,  more pram size.
This is from a YT video by Blossom Crochet 
HERE



I find all the patterns on You Tube as I find it easier to follow than reading a pattern.  I have added the links for you with each picture.
