Today I did my crafting at Lindale - at Jo Rice's Clarity Cumbria. We all had a wonderful time using Barbara's paper pad - Northern lights - the samples Jo had prepared were all fashion oriented but I went a little off piste as it was the only chance I was going to get to enter the Clarity challenge this month - so I used the cards of Jo's as inspiration and did my own thing!
Here's all four makes - they are so colourful - for someone who doesn't really use papers I really enjoyed myself - the papers are stunning - but you can see that for yourself!
I paperpieced the toucans on this one ....
and the rooster on this one .... and used the windy day stencil.
This one the dolphin is also paperpieced...
In this one the tree and houses and bushed are paperpieced. As soon as I saw this paper it screamed snowy landscape to me....
I am entering these into the clarity challenge which is now on facebook!
Thanks to Jo Rice for a lovely day!
Big hugs

A gorgeous collection of cards Rachel, I really love the look of those wonderful paper pads that have just been launched too. I love the Christmas card at the bottom using un-traditional colours. Have a great weekend.

What a productive day of crafting! such fun to step out of your comfort zone and try something new! the paper piecing resulted in some beautiful cards! Love them all, but the rooster has to be my favorite! Sending hugs! Good luck with the craft room; I'm trying to get mine a little more organized as well, but so many other things are taking priority right now.
ReplyDeleteWow gorgeous cards
ReplyDeleteThe papers look fantastic Rachel and I love what you've done with them. A fabulous selection of cards. The rooster is my favourite. I love how you've put the washing line behind him. A very clever idea. Barbxx
