At last...some crafting!



As you will know, if you read my blog regularly, I have been without a proper craft work area for several months.  However it is now finished and I am in the process of re-instating my stash!  Last night I decided to stop shelf stacking and make something.  We received a couple of late Christmas presents last week, so I made these two thank you cards using some Simply Fabulous Collection 'Meg' papers from Making Memories.  I've had these papers for a very long time,but they are so fresh and pretty, I like to go back to them every now and again.  The 'thanks' stamp is Studio G.

Here is a the new craft area before the stuff started to go back in, it looks like a lot of space, but I have an awful lot of paper, fabric and bits and pieces.


and finally... I managed to make a card for Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Card Challenge, this week the challenge is a 'square card' which is my favourite kind.  Papers are Winter Wings from Websters Pages with some stickles to lift the medallion embellisment.


I'll be back with an update on the shelves and hopefully somemore crafting!

  6. oooh Janice, it all looks lovely - I bet you're thrilled with the results. Looking forward now to seeing the "stuffed with stuff" version next!
    Love the colour - I think it's redder than ours, which is called "coral flair" what's yours'

  7. Ours is called 'Crimson Kiss' so probably is much deeper, we have Desert Wind on more of the walls, it's one of those light reflecting paints, nice and light.
