A Fab workshop at Crafting Times

By
Happy Monday morning to you, hope you enjoyed your weekend.  I was down with Nina and her ladies yesterday at Its Crafting Times for a By the Sea style workshop.  It was lovely to see everyone again and new ladies too.  Thanks for a great day all.  I took loads of photo s during the day to share this morning but for some strange reason the phone has blank Jpeg files on it!!!  Not sure what happened there but will see if Nina has some and post them later.   
I picked up the whole collection of Heritage Titanic papers too.  I'd seen them a couple of years ago at Ally Pally,  didn't buy them and have spent the last couple of years searching for them on the net.   I was at Nina s a few weeks ago and came across them completely by accident while browsing through a black album full of the complete Heritage paper and ephemera collections designed by Sally Elve Butler.  They're absolutely gorgeous.  Now I have more papers to stroke and look at lol! 
Titanic Paper and Ephemera Collection
The pic (top) is one of the projects we're making at our retreat this weekend.  We're  altering the A5 box and drawer, adding a divider and trinket tray and then making the album and note book to go in the two sections.  I've mainly been cutting out all the chipboard pieces for the packs with the help of the boys which has been a great help. There's loads of them.    
it's time to get up, cut some more chipboard and head off to a friends to make flowers :-)  so enjoy your day, thanks for calling by and catch up again soon:-) C

    Good evening Clare. What a fab project - I'm sure those attending the upcoming retreat are going to love it! I have to say I'm really looking forward to attending your workshop in August and can't wait to find out exactly what our folio album will look like.

    What a darling box, C. As always! Guess what. I was able to obtain the Titanic collection too! A real treasure -- especially since it's coming from the UK to me here in the US. :) Thanks for sharing your workshops with us all. What an opportunity for those who live in the area!! I'm glad we're able to "participate" via tutorials. That's fabulous!! Hugs to you, Ruth Ann xoxo

July Giveaway and crafty Weekend in Milford Haven

By
Morning everyone, Happy Monday to you.  I"m home after a fabulous weekend with Cheryl, Jan and Chris, at their fabulous shop, In House Interiors in Milford Haven.  It was a full house on Friday for our Artisan Style workshop where we constructed, painted and altered pencil cases and albums.  Saturday was demo day and another full house.  Cheryl, Jan & Chris, thank you so much for hosting the event for all your hard work and your hospitality, you really did spoiled me :-)  It's been quite a while since I've travelled over the border to Wales so I was quit excited as I passed the Welcome to Wales sign and then Raglan Castle. For those of you unfamiliar with our isle, Wales is full of magnificent Castles, sandy beaches, picturesque scenery and a gorgeous coastline.  I had to have a quick pit stop to see Raglan Castle. Saw my first Dragon too :-)   After a journey that took me across the middle of the country and th...
