ArtsyCrafts Weekend-Through The Garden Gate.

I had the best crafty weekend,Rach and I travelled up to Warrington on Friday afternoon as we had an early start Saturday morning. I'm so glad we did as we had a bit of time to relax ready for the two busy days ahead of us,we didn't finish until 9.45pm on Saturday night.
We were down for breakfast at 7am ready to start the classes for 8am,while we were waiting to get in we saw Sue from our crop walking towards us,that was a nice surprise as we didn't know she was going. Each table was set up with different colour combo's and the first two projects we got to choose our own colours,we did a lot of painting,stamping and metal work.I choose Cloudy Blue to make The Book of Wisdom,I still need to add some finishing touches to the inside of the book.



The next project was a shadow box in Java Jade.


On Sunday we did the main project,I just love this piece of artwork and was definitely my favourite,I was on the Herb Garden table and was so pleased with how it turned out,it will have pride of place in my hall.


I had the most amazing time and learnt so many new techniques.Iwill definitely be going again next year.I met so many lovely people,there was even somebody who lives in the same small town as me,it is such a small world !!! I'd like to thank Lin,Leandra,Lyn and the two Mark's for all their hard work,the organisation was fantastic. There was also time for a bit of shopping so ended up buying some fab stamps and lots of other little things I needed!!! Lol !!!
It is Bromsgrove crop on Saturday so I'll be doing a card class,this month will be a Christmas card.Here's a sneak peek.


Thanks for looking !!!
