Hi Mandy!

It was one of my favourite days of the month today - I went to Mandy's aka Dunholme Crafter.  I came home with four cards having had a lovely morning chatting and doing some papercraft.  

So, here you are





With a little bit of luck Mandy has found this post with the greatest of ease as, just for once, I was able to show my appreciation for the things she teaches me by showing her a couple of things on her computer.

    These are all beautiful pieces of art!
    Did you take a class or is it something that you just picked up on your own? I'm not terribly crafty although this is something that I would like to learn more about.

    Blogger won't let me reply under each comment today but Margie, I go to the monthly workshops which Mandy runs. She designs the cards which we then each make. Yesterday just two of us joined her and Flo-The-Dog and had a lovely nattery morning.

    There is also a lot of inspiration on line for card making.

      Thank you - I will check online and then see if there are any listings for classes around town. So much more personal!

      You might have more luck by visiting a craft store. If you have a small independent store near you, that would be the best bet. Obviously I don't know about Canada but here there are sometimes notice boards and craft shop staff would also know.

    The cards are so very professional.

    Those cards are beautiful: you are getting more and more proficient at making them, Mary. I particularly like the flower cards and it has given me inspiration to paint some myself I have a stock of blank cards left over from a previous spell of card.notelet making so no excuses for delay!

    The flower cards are actually made with stamps! The one with blue flowers involved two stamps, designed to be used together but allowing two colours of stamping ink to be used. The hydrangea was stmped in black to create an outline and then coloured using water colour pencils and a water brush.
