A bit late today but at least I actually made it after missing a couple of weeks. A bit of a mix on my table, partly because I have tidied it, and then opened a lovely parcel. Two of the four packs of Clarity designer papers. The other two are on their way. They are beautiful backing papers, perfect for scrap booking, making boxes, envelopes, and a host of other things.
You can also see the first of two daffodil watercolour paintings. Hochanda and Matthew Palmer got together to create a complete pack of everything needed to paint at least two paintings. It cost £5 and Hochanda put every penny into the Marie Curie appeal - a very worthwhile fund. The class was on Hochanda and online with Matthew teaching Penny Smith and Jenny Eclair.
The large pack of Ribbies are Flash's treat of choice. Each one lasts a maximum of 30 seconds.
Here I have added a photo of the Snow Leopard which I painted at Matthew Palmer's watercolour workshop, using his pre-drawn sketch. I am quite pleased with my end result from this class. These classes can be very tiring but so satisfying and relaxing, with everyone being so friendly.
I am off now to get my bag out of the car and unpack the parchment work from yesterday, which was Maria Moorhouse's Groovi class at Crafters Companion at The Valley just outside Evesham. Another great relaxing day of crafting with like minded people and a talented teacher. I will show touch the results later in the week if you are interested. Meanwhile, you may like to wander over to Julia's at Stamping Ground where you can find lots of other crafting areas/desks to have a wander round.
