Rubber Stamping - North Wales

  Just a few hours to the end of this most unusual year May we never see your like again

  Hope you have a lovely time.

 I just had to show you my latest Christmas project. An afternoon with some dies & my Gemini produced this for my project Then the next day playing with layouts & finally produced this which is now proudly displayed in my lounge window. Because I wanted the design to be seen by anyone passing by -  we just get to see the white background. Never mind.

 Good morning everyone. UPDATED later in the afternoon Due to the problems I had I missed including Carolyn's wishes. As there is a possibility of more cards arriving I will update this as necessary, I have just added Gwneth's & Rita's cards at the end of the blog post & the message from Agnes Normally at this time of year, at our last meeting, we have a Christmas Card Lucky Dip.  Carolyn suggested that anyone who wanted to made a card to display here that was to the other members. Also to keep ip for themselves as if it was from someone else in the club. Where the ladies have made any comments about their cards I have entered them here (in italics) So, today I have photos of those cards;                     Agnes I Wish everyone a Merry and safe Christmas and Best wishes and a better 2021 Annette My Christmas card to share with the group and wish everyone best wishes for the festive season. Carol Merry Xmas to all Carolyn Carolyn wishes everyone a very Merry Christ

 Good afternoon everyone. Madeline of Mold II club has sent through to me some sheets of information regarding different inks & their uses.  She thought it might be interesting to everyone else. Madeline sent the information as PDF's which I cannot put directly into the blog - so I have used a piece of software i have to produce jpegs of them.  There are 4 in total.  I hope the photos are clear enough, please let me know if you don't find them easy to view.  If you wish I could then send them to you via email. This is the clearest I can get them, in order to fit the page - especially the bottom one. Thank you Madeline for sharing this.

  Sad news of the passing of actress Dame Barbara Windsor. She will be missed.

 Good morning everyone. I have received quite a few photos recently of cards that you have been making for Christmas - so I thought I would start showing a few of them. Todays collection is from Mair of Mold club. A really lovely collection of clean & crisp cards, Mair. I hope all your preparations for Christmas are going well ladies & look forward to some more festive photos. Take care everyone 'Bye for now.

Good afternoon ladies Today the photos are of the CSNW ladies Show & Tell for December. I se the challenge & sent them notes on how to make --- a Balcony Card. Here are their cards;                                                Amy Four views of Amy's card.  Very pretty colours & lovely card Grace Three views of Grace's card. Great Christmas design. Gwen Two views of Gwen's card. It looks like she has adapted the design a little, as there is a back to it. So! the balcony card built onto a base card shape. Love the embellishments. Me This is my card I do love the design of the card & think I will be using it quite a bit next year. Ruth A lovely Christmas version from Ruth - love the colour & the use of the words in the background. Once again ladies - lovely cards. You really seem to be getting to grips with making them straight from the printed instructions.  Well done. It is clear to see why this was called the balcony card & the beauty of it is - i
