csnw photos - part 2

Good morning everyone.

I do hope you all had a great weekend & that those of you who went to the Stamp Festival at Port Sunlight had a good time & bought lots of nice goodies.

I went for a short while as I didn't want to get too tired due to being at a whole day workshop on the Sunday.  But more of that in another post.

Today I have the photos of the project we did at the CSNW meeting last Wednesday which was a little fun card called the Twist & Turn Gatefold card. Two can be made from one sheet of A4 card.  Most of the ladies got the 2 cards folded & covered with paper & although it is a small card there is still room for some embellishment as well as a closure.


Some pretty pink papers for Elvena's 2 cards.



Gwen' 2 cards looking very smart in their blue & pink clothing.


Pretty blue floral papers used by Grace.
Looking at the photo again they look like little Kimonos stood up.


Ruth has chosen red to decorate here cards - love that vine paper.


A close up of the little pinwheel accent on Ruth's card.


Claire's card is laid flat in this photo to show the closures..


This photo shows Claire's cards standing up. 


It looks like I didn't take a photo of both of Ann's cards.  Dainty blue floral papers decorate this one.

That is me for today ladies.  Bob & I are off out later this afternoon to meet up with a good friend for a meal & a natter.  Tomorrow I will have a member showcase & also the photos of the mini albums made by 2 of the CSNW ladies.

Have a nice day.  'Bye.

 Good afternoon ladies this afternoon I have the photos from the CSNW S&T for June. The theme I set was any theme of their choosing but using the colours red, white & blue.  Here are their cards. Amy Two nice classic style cards from Amy Grace Simplicity is the key here They are so elegant too. Gwen Beautiful embossed card & flowers which have been decoupaged Joan A stepper card with a beautiful circular central topper. Thank you ladies for sending them in - certainly very different styles today. So! - Last post? Over the last year or so all 3 clubs have been getting themselves sorted out in order to continue running the clubs from now on. Remember I announced in 2019 that I would be standing back at the end of 2020 & retiring.  I will of course keep in touch & visit the meetings now & again.  But it is now time for me to hang up my stamps.  Well not literally as I will still make cards - but you know what I meant. All 3 clubs now have the way forward sorted.  C

Jayne Nestorenko

Good morning I was informed this morning, by Rita of Mold II club, that Jayne Nestorenko had passed away on Saturday evening after a long illness. I suspect that there may be some amongst you who do not know of her - but many who do. I followed Jayne's work for a long time & many of those lovely large wooden stamps that were around came into my collection beause of her enthusiasm & creativity. I particularly enjoyed using, & held many workshops at Daleside, to show how to use the Treasure Box stamps which were very popular; I cannot now remember who made those stamps & there were different sizes & you made different shaped boxes according to how many pieces you stamped.  Then of course you also had the matching medallion stamp to place on the top of the box. The crafting world is saddened by the loss of this lovely lady. Sleep peacefully Jayne.
