Christmas Club at the Craft barn

Hi everyone, I hope you're having a good weekend. I had a lovely day out with a friend in Brighton yesterday and took in a painting launch at article in the lanes of Craig Alan's work, it was interesting to hear about his process and all that he does before he even starts on a canvas, there was pink fizz too but I still couldn't afford the price tags of course :-).

Once a month at the Craft Barn we have Christmas Club day where some lovely ladies join me to get a head start on everything Christmas. We make cards and also items to give as gifts etc., we also have a good laugh and quite often yummy cakes.

Last Monday Brusho paints were the colour ingredient for the day and we used them for the backgrounds of this lovely little paper mâché book set together with some stamping (Kaisercraft stamps) and and highlights of white pen and glossy accents.
The card this time was a shaker style card with gorgeous Cosmic Shimmer glitter jewels inside. Again we used the Brusho paints for the background, stamping this time with Woodware stamps and some stencilling on the top layer with a Tim Holtz stencil.
Enjoy your Sunday,
Chris x

Craft Barn Wishing Well - Shaker Cards



Hi everyone! Another wishing well day at the Craft Barn blog today and this time we're making shaker cards which is a wish granted for Jan who wins a prize for having her question picked and asked the team for ideas of how to make a Christmas Shaker card.  On the Craft Barn Blog there's a great step by step from Michelle with a very clever idea for these and also a step by step from me on how I made the card above together with the materials list and chance to win a prize for leaving a comment. 


Enjoy your day and thank you for your lovely comments, I always appreciate them.
