Hi everyone hope you are all well,
Today I breathed a huge sigh of relief as the children went back to school, looking forward to some peace and quiet and getting back into a routine and may be finally doing some crafting.
I can't believe craft club is upon us once more, I've not had chance to come up with a project so thought we could make some cards decoupaging stamped images. It's not something I think of doing, but I know Wendy does and they always look lovely.
The best sort of stamps are ones with larger areas and not too detailed as you need to cut the sections out. Character stamps such as Tilda, Penny Blacks and flower stamps work particularly well.
You will need all your general cardmaking stuff, stamps, colouring pens/pencils, small sharp scissors and 3d foam / silicone glue.
Margaret J suggested that we could have some "general" crafting evenings rather than doing a project where you can bring whatever you are working on or just have a natter and share ideas, so we will have a few of those in the future.
Unfortunately last month there was only 5 of us again and I was debating giving up the room and running the group from home as we are not covering the rent. To be honest I don't think this is going to be practical so, as the subs are due next month I propose to increase them to £20 for the year plus the usual £2 per month. This way the rent is covered for the year before we start no matter how many attend each month. I hope you understand.
I will organise some advertising to try and increase numbers.
Finally it is Marie's birthday so don't forget your card.
See you on Tuesday
