Double slider card

Made loads of cards at the weekend from scraps in my box or ones left over from previous classes. You can see that I also managed to finish my samples for a 'Black & White Christmas' class at Carshalton this morning

Snow's going

After a rainy night our snow has almost gone - except for the frozen ruts on the road. Might venture out tomorrow if it doesn't ice up again.
Yesterday afternoon the sun came out for a while and it was beautiful. All the trees and plants were covered with ice crystals.

What a difference a day makes!

Before the heavy stuff arrived! - It's knee deep now

Main bus route from Epsom to Reigate!

the one with the lights on ended up turning 90 degrees with his rear between parked cars

Our Road

On the way back from the Surgery

(Waterfield) also a bus route

Let it Snow!

Woke up to 5cm (2")of snow this morning and it's still falling.

Been for a walk and it was absolutely silent except for the crunching noise made by my boots.

Soon after, all the cars were out - slipping and sliding on the hilly roads around here and causing all sorts of chaos. I watched a couple of minor bumps - will they ever learn?

Nearly 15cm (6") now and still coming down thick and fast!

Fancy Christmas Double Slider Card

Going to try and make this type of card in a class soon so off to play with my card stock to see if I can do it! I have several sets of measurements - Metric and inches so will try to decide which is the easiest to follow.

Well, not too bad for a first attempt. I'll make the join on the poly bag nearer the centre then hopefully it will open right up rather than just half way! At least then I'll be able to put an extra greeting on the top and bottom which will be revealed when the ribbon tab is pulled.

Snowflakes

Started making snowflake cards for classes later this month - here are the first 4. Used different diecuts from Nestabilities and Marianne and Imaginesce, Basic Grey and Bella Road double-sided papers - all from Crafts u Love.

Ist attempts

Just tried out the new camera and even managed to download my first pictures. Still a lot to learn about it but at least I can get to grips with all the functions before we go to Adelaide for our annual holiday in January!

Here are a few card samples I made for next week's Gold & White class.
