What a Lovely Day ... :)

Hello there :) it has been a couple of weeks since I posted here, as I have been getting ready for the Little Claire crafting day on the Wirral, which happened today.

Together Gaynor, Helen and I taught our first cardmaking classes. The ladies made cards with one of us, before swapping & moving on to another table. By the end of the day they had made lots of cards, drunk lots of tea & coffee and were quite tired, as were we!

It was a really lovely day which was very efficiently organised by Gill, Steve and Carol from Little Claire, who looked after us all wonderfully :)

In my class we made 4 cards, 2 Christmas and 2 'general'.

Here is the first of the Christmas cards we made:

The image is 'Oh Christmas Tree', by Red Gingham, coloured using ProMarkers. This card was made using 'Back to Basics Christmas' papers by Dovecraft & Bazzil cardstock. The buttons are also from the 'Back to Basics Christmas' range, Candi by Craftwork cards. The sentiment is one of the Red Gingham Christmas Sentiment Die-cuts, available from Little Claires, mounted on green cardstock cut with 'Lacey Circles' nestabilities.

I will try to be back tomorrow with the rest of the cards we made today :)

Thank you for taking the time to look at my card, hope you like it :) x

    PS. it's very difficult to find your blog... I can only find it because I'm following you and know the address lol. If I try to return one of your comments I get a 'the blogger profile you requested cannot be displayed' message... not sure what setting you need to change, but I'm sure you'd get loads more people visiting and following you if they could find your blog via the comments you leave :o)
