Happy Times~

Hiya Girls~

What a fantastic day I have had today.
Once a month I run a Craft Group at a local Community Centre, and whenever possible I run a workshop to do some Alter Art at the same place with the same bunch of ladies. Today was the latter, and we have been altering a wooden House Hook.
As they are not quite finished yet, I don't have any pictures until next week, but they were looking stunning and the ladies seemed to enjoy all the techniques used.
We used flitter, Frantage, Stamping, Pan Pastels & Embossing to name but a few.

I Do have a project to show you. I made this little gift bag (along with four others) last night. They are to go with all my other makes to sell at a Local Craft Fair this Sunday.




I have use some of my new Kanban Cardstock in A4, this card has checks one end and spots the other, perfect for making these bags with, I added ribbon where the two different patterns meet.
This sweet image is a Hobbyhouse Topper which is of course a Mo Manning image. The ribbon is from my local market, pearls are Hobbyhouse too. The tall stalks and Doily are Memory Box and the Sentiment is LOTV.

    This is such a cute little gift bag Debbie! The cute little girl is so adorable!

    I couldn't find an email address for you, so I will answer your question here. I have no problem with you making a canvas similar to mine (The Garden of Crafty Delights).
