Acetate Christmas Card

Good morning to all my crafty friends and  followers I hope you are enjoying a lovely weekend . The card I'm sharing this morning is another sample I have made for the ladies at the Craft Group I go to. It was a long time since we had used acetate so I thought it would be something different for everyone to try. However as I'm sure you know its not the easiest to photograph.

Acetate Christmas Card

Good morning everyone hope you are looking forward to the weekend as the weather looks as if it will be Ok for late September. I mentioned in my last post that I had a second acetate card to photo that I made for my craft group friends to make in October. I have to say this is one of those cards that was simple to make yet I think has come out really well I do like the colours and the cute image.

 

 

 

The second photo is showing the card open I was trying to show what was on the acetate and what was inside very difficult to photo with the acetate but  hope you can see the things on the acetate.

I am going shortly for an afternoon to Northallerton its a lovely little market town in North Yorkshire not far from our house.They have a very nice traditional market and a good craft shop I might even get treated to tea at Bettys who knows.

 

I want to send get well wishes to our friend Eric who we visited yesterday. He is not so good at present so we are thinking about him. Also I made a big mistake this week I forgot a 50th birthday for our friends Daughter in Law I had a card  made but got in my head it was October. I feel really bad so will be sending the card with lots of apologies. Must be my age !!

 

Enjoy the weekend what ever you have planned

 

 





Acetate Christmas Card

Good morning everyone and  firstly thank you to all of you who have commented on my last couple of posts. I really do appreciate you taking the time to look at my blog and leave those great comments. I love all of the comments I receive.
Now for my post this is a sample card I have made for our Craft Group Ladies and Gent to make on the 10th October, Its quite a simple card as we have members of all abilities. This is the first of two samples I have done. I will post the second one when I get it photographed.

The second photo is not so good very difficult photographing acetate as I'm not a professional this was the best I could get but it gives a good idea of what's on the acetate and the back of the card

Acetate Card

Hi everyone apologies for not posting a little earlier but have had a busy few days and am now into a  few days work for the local authority doing appeals so although its voluntary work I still have lots of preparation. I'm doing about seven days over the next three weeks. I do enjoy them though as it  keeps the brain active !!. I still hope to fit in some crafting as well .

This card is one I have been asked to do as a sample for the ladies and gentleman at my craft group to make on the 27th June. My remit was acetate with peel offs so hope they like the design and enjoy making it
