Ribbon Bauble

I wanted to share with you the Ribbon bauble I made and am showing the CWA ladies how to make one.

I hope you enjoy my posts  :)

CWA - International book

Totally away from craft making, I'm also a CWA (Country Womens Association) member and am also the International Officer for our branch.  Each year we are given a country of study and this year it was Botswana and we can make a book about the country that is then judged.  Well today at our Group meeting I found out our book came 2nd in our district which has 11 other branches.  I was very excited :)

Our next country is Italy, I'm very excited to do this country and even better I will be visiting Europe next September and Italy is one of the countries we will be visiting.  Though I have been to Rome in 2008.  So I get to use my crafting skills again! YAY :)

Order

My order turned up today, so hopefully I will get to play very soon :)

Christmas Cards

I just put in an order to Stampin' Up! for some more products, can't wait to have a play and try out a new technique I learned on the weekend and it's to do with water colouring.  I'm a bit excited :)  I will post what I achieve with it.

Another new product I really like is the Fuse fast.  It is a super strong adhesive and works really well!

Stampin' Up!

I had a lot of fun today making some christmas cards...

This is what I used to make the above card...

Masculine Cards

Here are some cards I cased off Pinterest.  I had to make 6 masculine cards and this is what I did....

I have not used any coloured card stock, instead I have inked the edges using a sponge.  I liked the idea of using scored lines in the blank space, easy and effective. 

I thank the people I cased the cards off. :)
