Big Shot Workout!

I had another class on Tuesday night and we called it 'Big Shot Workout'.  Oh boy, did we have fun!  The possibilities are endless and the only problem was that we ran out of time - again!  I think I'll need to have another Big Shot Workout soon!

This is just one of the cards that we made.  One of the 'girls' brought along some 'fern' that she had punched out for us all so I am going to add a few sprigs of fern to my card (the photo was taken before the class - so watch out for the 'after' photo).

Ok, here goes!

I've been shamed into this! It is all a bit scary just now but I'm told it gets easier as it goes on!  Feels a bit daft talking to the laptop!

Last week at our class we made cards for charity.  Stampin' Up! have brought out a stamp set called 'Strength and Hope' and for each set purchased they will donate £1s to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  The 'girls' in the class all made 3 cards for themselves and then made lots more that we are donating to a local Cancer Research shop.  I had cut and chopped card and ribbon beforehand so that they had plenty of time to make lots and lots of cards and oh boy they did just that!  Between them they made over 30 more cards!  An absolutely fantastic effort from them all.


Don't they look fantastic?  I am so proud of them all and of all their hard work that night!  The girls done well!  Well i've put envelopes with them and packaged them all up now.  Just to take them to a local Cancer Research shop.

If you would like to join our band of happy crafters (no experience needed, we cater for all abilities) then please contact me.  Also, if you would like to host a workshop or perhaps a party to raise money for charity then again, please get in touch with me and I'd be happy to discuss it with you.
