my work at recent workshop

Hi everyone

I don't quite know where yesterday disappeared to, so didn't get photos of my work from the Saturday workshop photographed.  But I have them for you today.

Some of my practice pieces.

It took me a while to got a full print - that is no white spaces as you can see here.

But they wont be wasted - there are a couple more that I made but I had already cut pieces from them to use.  You will see in another photo,

Finally a decent print.

Now to think about what I will do with it.

This photo shows a couple of the more successful prints using the long thin poly plate.

I have selected a card & some layering card & now need to put it together.

The same with this one - a good print in my favourite colours & the base card & layering card selected ready to complete.  

The top, largest flower has been decoupaged one level by stamping the flower on one of my practice pieces & cutting it out.

A completed card (on the day) from what we had learnt during the morning session.

I was so enthused by Kym from Crafty Roo & her ideas that I even went as far as 

"grunging" this one a bit.

On to the afternoon & we were shown some more techniques & ideas

& given this journal to decorate.

Once I have done some more playing at home I am going to put an image on the back 

of the journal as well.

Looking forward to playing on the inside too.

Our second & last project for the day - a lovely apron & using fabric paints.

Phew! No wonder I was tired in the evening.  But very happy with my work.

Enjoy the rest of the day.  We are having work done in our back garden today - so looking forward to buying some new planters & plants that will be easier for me to manage.

More tomorrow.

'Bye for now.
