Glasgow workshop

Good afternoon all, 
I do hope your week has started well. 
Mine began with Karl leaving at 6am, so I got up, walked  the dogs and had breakfast ,
before leaving the house for a 9am appointment. 
I am back home now, I have done some workshop prep and now I need to get some cleaning done, ready for a 4pm viewing. 
It is all go...

Saturday it was our Glasgow workshop , and the sun shone for us...
It was another lovely day with my friends north of the border...
Eileen always makes the most yummy cakes,,,
I am so spoilt with all the fabulous cakes...

We started by using a piece of Clarity backing paper , we added some stamping and colouring 
Look at these brilliant results...


I am so proud of every single lady...
And especially our young Emily,.
What a star...and such a lovely girl...

Next we had a play with some FoamIran...
And yes depending on how we coloured it, 
Some of us did have bright blue fingers...(not mentioning any names !!!!)

All good fun...


We used a piece of Clarity parchment as our backing for the flowers...
And added some splatteres of white gesso 

The room did go very quiet for a while...
Talk about concentration...





The flowers were all cut using the same die, 
But they all looked so different,,,and fabulous. 

Just shows how versatile the Foamiran is ...

After tea and cake.  
We used some paper and stamps,,,
The topper is stencil card and we have used inks to make it match the backing paper...
Great technique,,,



Love all these...

Sorry I didn’t manage to get everyone’s cards 
Thanks ladies for your company,,,,

It was our little motorhomes first outing of the year...
All went well until we got to the campsite...
The pump decided not to work so no water or heating....
But we survived and Karl managed to fix it on Saturday. 
So Saturday evening we were nice and warm...
And we even remembered to change the clocks...
Hope you did too...( especially you Sam , who was determined to have an extra hour lol )

Right, I had better get a move on...
And get the hoovering done..
Take care all..

Love and hugs...

Jo. xxxx
