WOYWW 120

 Well after my 'pink phase' I thought it best to radically change my ideas for a while!  This time it's bright colours and a different shaped card again.  This is a card for my Mum to give to her Sister (for her 80th birthday coming up).  I've got a few ideas on what I want to do, now I have to work out how to do them LOL!
This is something else I'm working on, on my little tray on my bed!  It's a hassle having to put everything away each time, but it's sure better than working out of boxes as I used to.  It makes me tidy or else I'll never get to bed at night!

This is again a different idea I've had spinning around my head lately.  I don't know if it will work as I can see it in my head, but I'll give it a go and show you the results when it's done.

All I need to do now is find envelopes to fit the cards as I only have C6 size ones.  Oops!  Any info on where to find a good cheap'ish source of envelopes would be appreciated.

Enjoy WOYWW!

Yup, those funky colours are a perfect antidote to pink!! I like 'em! Thanks for visiting my blog, I do sell my stuff actually, usually in craft fairs. People have mentioned a blog shop but I've been too much of a scaredy cat to try it so far! xx

You sure are dedicated to your craft. :) I must say I've painted in some strange places but never in bed. :)

Looks like a start to something good there. I get those ideas spinning in my head all the time and only hope that they work out on paper. Sometimes I surprise myself though. Thanks for the peek and have a great week!

I am sure my hubby wouldn't allow me to craft in bed. I get glitter on me even if I don't use it so don't fancy it in the bed. I just stick to reading my crafty mags in bed!!

How can you work in such a small space Helen, I could never manage to work in that, Lol!

Loving all your works in progress and as for envelopes………I get all my my envelopes and card stock from Craft Creations which has already been mentioned or you could try PDA they are very good too.

Happy Crafting!

Hi All

No I don't normally paint on my bed, but I do craft on it with a couple of trays. It has to be neat or else I wont' get to bed that night! Have fun everyone!
