Bureau and Pocket Album Artisan Style

By
Good afternoon everyone.  I've got a few minutes to spare before heading off to pick son No 2 up from a hard day at college being creative so thought I"d grab a cup of tea and share my latest project with you. 
The Bureau and Pocket Album is our weekend project I'm teaching at Daisy's Jewels and Crafts over 30th and 31st May.  I started with the base kit yesterday, and have altered the bureau and finished the pocket album in just over 24 hours, with a sleep and time off in between so am hopeful we'll get everything finished in the two craft days.  I've used papers from the Artisan Style collection by Graphic 45.  I love the colour combinations and making the pocket album was fun working the different colour ways together.  I couldn't go too mad with the pages as the album has to slide into the shelf under the top section and above the cabinet, so kept them simple ... ish!"  Here's a few more pictures.......... 


I think there are a couple of places left if you fancy a crafty weekend in the Coventry area.  Call Wendy on 07779 110813 for more info and bookings.
For those of you who'd love to make the project but can't make the weekend, kits and the project sheet for the Bureau will be available on our website from 3rd June. 
Well my mug is empty, its just gone 4 so I've got to love you and leave you and head off to Leamington.  Thanks for calling by, enjoy the rest of your Wednesday and look forward to catching up again soon :-)
