Cute Scraps Card

 Good Morning All

It is  a Red day here, that is like a Bank Holiday in UK so most shops are shut and it would normally be my Groovi class this afternoon but we have postponed until next week, so a nice quiet day for us.

My card today is once again, made from bits on my desk.

I had been playing around with my stencils and made this background.

Tore some black card to make the image stand out abit more and then added a sentiment tag.

This is quite cute.

As much as I try to use the scraps, the basket keeps getting fuller!!!

This is the chart - I used Pearl Lace Pink

These are the gifts I gave out, little boxes containing afew Chewit sweets.

Anything but a Card for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge time again and Tracy has chosen a theme of

Anything But A Card.

I  made a Notebook and put it  inside a pocket.

This is for a raffle prize for my next Junk Journal class at the local Craft Shop.

I always give a prize and a small gift box like I do for my Craft Club ladies.

This is the finished item.

 I made the pocket from Kraft card and used some of the wrapping paper I bought in Alicante.  I added a vellum pocket at the bottom with a couple of butterflies.

This is the notebook.  

I decorated the front with ephemera from Luise Heinzl on Etsy.

I used coffee dyed and spritzed papers for the writing  pages and made a pocket on the inside and back covers.

I stitched the papers in and added butterflies to the remaining threads.

Inside the back cover I added a mini notebook too.

I had 4 ladies join me in the class in November and they all wanted another class  so we scheduled another for next week.

At this class I gave this notebook as a prize and Louise, the lady sat on the right, won it and she was made up with it.

Holidays for MAWTT

 Good Morning All

Moving Along With The Times Challenge this month is

Summer or Winter Holidays

I went with Winter and reminisced back to childhood, sitting around the open fire.

We used to roast chestnuts  on the fire, yum yum, not had them for a very long time.

I used an LOTV topper on top of Vellum sentiment paper.

Sentiment ribbon from Crafty Ribbons (link in sidebar)

Different parts of the world have different Christmas's.  Johns son is in Australia and they are getting the summer now so some people will be making  a summer card.

Here in Spain it is cold in mornings and evenings but we are still getting some very warm days.
