All crafted out

Posted by Unknown
Craft Fair now done and dusted.  Mandala boards have been purchased and tried-out with a light-box, giving excellent shapes for matting and layering. Bags of iridescent and transparent white glitters for use in the making of glitter stencil cards have been tipped into containers; little plastic teaspoons from air flights or ice cream spoons are excellent for shaking the powder over the stencils.  Folding craft lamps with low-heat daylight tubes are now in position to shed light on sorting colours of card...


The craft group met and had a marvellous time trying out A5 Stepper Cards thanks to Jane.  Scoring the steps was made a lot easier by using the EaziScore Board as the lines are just the right distance apart.  Unfortunately I didn't get to photograph all our efforts, so there's just this one photo.  The 'steps' can be either side of the main part and can be decorated in myriads of ways, including having little messages popping up from the steps.  Decorative papers really come into their own and little scraps of card can be used up most usefully.  We enjoyed ourselves so much we didn't realise how late it was and had to scurry for home. 

A new video should be on YouTube soon.
