I finally got everything ready for my class, had nine lovely ladies attend. The ideas I used were from a training day I should have been on- couldn't attend as it was day after mum's op. My lovely SU Upline made them up for me and I used three of then for my class - it was so kind of her and I'm not sure I would have made it with her. The fourth card ( the one with NOEL on it) was based on one that the lovely Linda Parker of http://www.papercraftwithcrafty.co.uk/ I changed a couple of elements. Linda makes some beautiful items.
My work space is reasonably tidy, waiting for me to come up with some ideas for my all day Christmas class.
Below my new alchohol markers from Stampin' Up! I've not had time to play with them yet but am looking forward to having a go.
I also decorated a cake for my granddaughter Phoebe. She had her eighth birthday party on Friday. She loves her Uncle Matthew's dog Ralph, and would dearly love one. Daddy is allergic though so she can't. So she wanted a cake with a model of Ralph on for her birthday. So grandma obliged. She loved it, not sure it was pretty enough for her friends lol
Well I think that's all for now folks :-) I will visit all who visit me, those ending in the same number and as many more as I can. Why not pop along to http://stamping-ground.blogspot.co.uk/ and join in the fun.
Your poor mummy...I really hope she recovers enough to get out of hospital soon so she can settle, rest and recover fully. Sending you and her big hugs.
ReplyDeleteI love the birthday cake you’ve made...my daughter in law made mine and I hope to share a pic on my Friday post if you’d like to see it.
Hugs,
