csnw photos -part 2

Good afternoon everyone.

Time for another weekend so I hope the weather is going to improve & that you have lots of nice things to do. 

This afternoon I have the second set of photo from Wednesday nights CSNW meeting & this time they are of their project for the evening.  The project was the Telescopic card which I know was covered some years ago but there are new ladies in the group & some of them had not seen it before.

There are two photos to each card - one with it closed & one with it open;



Pretty colour from Joan - I am not sure if it is burgundy or an aubergine colour.
The main topper with the flowers Joan stamped & coloured them in during the evening.



Ruth has gone for natural colours - love that teddy in amongst the flowers.



A cute white teddy with a glittery bow on Kate's card



Natural colours again from Claire.
Love that raggedy style flower stamp & the verse is lovely.




More natural colours from Gwen.
I think  Claire spoilt Ruth & Gwen & cut their shapes for them, whilst she was cutting her own.
I love that sentiment - how true it is too.



Ann too has a great sentiment on her card & I think that is so right as well.
Lovely delicate stamped flowers & shading to circles.

I rather enjoyed playing with this card design again after such a long time.  I think Joanna of Mold club showed it to me & some of the ladies a while back.

In fact Elvena, who couldn't make the meeting Wednesday, emailed me a little later to say she had searched through her archive & found that we had made it back in 2011.  My goodness how time flies.  Thank you for letting me know that Elvena.

That's me for now ladies
Have a great weekend
'Bye for now.

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.
