Your lovely craft makes

 

Good Sunday Morning Ladies, 

Well we were treated to another glorious day yesterday,  I did a few indoor chores in the morning then joined Paul in the garden, he filled a load of new planters with soil and I filled them with strawberry plants, fingers crossed fresh soil and a sunnier position will encourage some strawberries this year, last year was a lot of foliage and very few strawberries 🍓!  After I had finished I could barely walk back up to the house,  I am regretting it today!  The sunshine was wonderfully therapeutic though. 

Today's reminder needs to no explanation,  you are ALL incredibly WONDERFUL! 🥰😍😘

Lets look at your makes.....

Karen I can see how much you are loving creating this collection of artwork pieces for yourself just by the amount of work and love you put into the details of each piece  

The hobby piece is my favourite so far,  I love that you created the background with knitting patterns and then adding the knitting and the amazing handmade knitting needles.  It's just incredible, I love it 

Nature, wow I love the pop of colour and all of the little details like the snail, that I missed on my first look, then the bird and the hares!  It perfectly depicts the category!  

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing Challenge pieces with us, so incredibly inspirational XXX

Hi, here is my journal page for this weeks.

I used the category friendship 

Once again mixed pieces from several books.

It’s a bit difficult to see the little cat, but I feel pets become friends.

What a stunning Journal page Lilian,  that gorgeous Carta Bella background is so pretty, such a genius idea to add the Secret Diary girl on a swing,  she looks like she is looking down at the cute cat sat beside her. 

Thank you so much my lovely for creating this beautiful challenge piece despite feeling unwell, fingers crossed you get some answers this week XXX

Maria's Description:

I did have some crafting done this morning and here they are.

I used my sprays I bought from Honkydory first and then I used a stencil I had with embossing paste. No splatters this time just a sentiment to finish it off🤭

The next little one is 3x3 and I used here another stencil with black ink and a sentiment.   

Oh WOW Maria,  your embossed card is absolutely amazing,  those sprays you used for your background are such beautiful colours,  your embossing through that intricate stencil is perfect, such a pretty stencil too. 

You made a perfect Thrinchie Maria,   its perfect,  the sprayed background,  the stencilled poppies and a lovely sentiment.  

I really hope you are pleased with your pieces this week,  they are amazing !  Thank you so much my lovely friend,  I know you have had a lot on your mind this week but still made time to support the blog. XXX

Sonia's Description:

A double journal spread for the challenge ‘Childhood’

I printed the background paper (Shaylee Morehouse) and the pictures and quotes from Pinterest. The stamped sentiment from Inkylicious which I cut up. I used a mixture of Stamperia stamps on the background. The world die is from Temu I think which was gifted to me from a beautiful friend 😊

Oh Sonia where do I start,  the background is so lovely,  the images of the children are adorable,  you have created an incredible layout, the Inkylicious stamp works perfectly with your added quotes. The background stamping finishes the layouts perfectly.  

It perfect depicts Childhood  

Thank you so much for sharing your journal spread with us XXX

I hope that you all have a lovely Sunday, 

My love and hugs to all of you,
