Happy Wednesday everyone!
This week I have made an attempt at a few Christmas cards.
I sorted through my fabrics to find snippets for tiny collages and made about 12 before I ran out of steam.
Today I am going to start again and make a few more - if time allows.
I have been busy parcelling and delivering stock for Tilly Tea Dance and today of course it's my day to pick up Ben from school.
No doubt we will have playtime fun and chill out story time. Last week we created an entire wildlife area on my lounge coffee table and he made up stories about all the soft toy animals that were roaming the "North Mountain" and "Bushland". (He has a great imagination and is good at directing others to join in!!)
So, have a great week.
I will be round to see what you are up to later.
xx Jo
Your cards are looking fab Jo and it’s really lovely to see you enjoying some creative time.

Hi Jo. Those cards are lovely - well done. Trust you get done all that you want to before you must travel North Mountain and Bushland again - or wherever the fancy will take you this week!
ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.

Great cards Jo! That blue polka dot fabric is perfect for a snowy sky, great cards all round though, glad you enjoyed your crafty time!

Fabulous cards and I'm super impressed at the rate you are making them with all that stitching and lovely detail - I average about 4 a week with a lot more sitting and thinking about them than actual 'doing'!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your adventures with Ben today - it sounds like you have such fun times,

ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, Jo. We same to share a love of using up scraps! Catriona
ReplyDeleteSo what is Ben going to be in the future - something to do with films or theatre directing/production. I love listening to a child who has so much imagination, there tiny minds ar so open and receptive. You just enjoy your time with him and blow the card making. Nice cards you have there though.
