Colouring in Cumbria...

Good afternoon all, I do hope you are having a lovely Sunday. I have just come back home after a lovely morning at the sincerely yours PaperCrafts show at Leigh...

What a fantastic little show, and a great place to meet, chat and have coffee with crafty friends...

Oh and spend a penny or two...or three!!!!!

Yesterday it was Clarity Cumbria, and for once it was a lovely sunny drive there and back....no rain...yah,,.that was a result..

We used the brilliant new postcards from Clarity and they are just the right size to fit in these frames from Creativ...

And they are double sided

 

Now yesterday we didn't have time to colour the full postcard...so here are some of yesterday's results....

And obviously the ladies had homework...( well done Lisa top of the class with your homework xx)

We also used some drawing gum to add some spotlight detail to a card design

After lunch we got inky ....and yes these are to go in black bags....now you know they are one of my favourite things at the moment...it is just so good to create a gift...and a useful one at that.

Love the colours ladies....you really rocked it yesterday...

And thanks Freda and Sheila...the cakes were yummy as usual...

Now Barbara was on tv yesterday but obviously I missed the shows , so I have recorded them and I am looking forward to some quality time with more tea and cake to catch up...

Better get on , I need to catch up on making samples too...next week is looking like another busy week....but guess what...I just love it....busy is good....

I would say keeps me out of mischief....but some may not agree...

Enjoy your Bank Holiday all,

Much love and hugs.

Jo. xxxx

Beautiful art work! I love my wee bag and so many people have commented on it. It was so much fun to make. I have used the poppy stamp a lot now, it is a very versatile stamp that covers many occasions.
