Cards, and...

...more cards.

Wednesday was the monthly card workshop at Dawn's. I look forward to this every month as it is always a fab day of crafting.

Although the day started a bit breezy it turned into the most wonderful day which was easy to enjoy as the class is held in a marquee and lunch was served on the patio.

A bit of stamping, embossing and colouring produced this cute card and we made an envelope from scratch to go with...

I wasn't sure what to expect from the description "flap, flap, flap" but this pretty silver and pink card was the result. It did take a lot longer than Dawn had hoped because a lot of the die-cut pieces had to be released from the backing card by cutting round with a craft knife (unfortunately her Cricut had been playing up and wasn't cutting correctly :o()

A card for a teenage girl complete with a mobile phone hanger. The image was stamped on card to create the topper image which was duly coloured in. The phone charm was the same image stamped onto shrink plastic...

The tag card has to be my favourite of the day - not just cos I love the idea but also the colours. Embossed mirri board on the cover and some stamping/heat embossing...

...inside was just like a flag book with various decorated tags...

Lunch was 'brill (as always) - a hot & cold buffet, quiche, salad, new potatos, eggs, ham, sausages, pickles and fresh bread. To round it all off was a fab individual fresh strawberry pavlova mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Cos it was so warm in the afternoon we had icecreams instead of cake with our tea/coffee.

Roll on next month.......................
