Trying to get crafty

I did go and visit Bel this morning, but haven’t done as much walking today as my calves hve been complaining a bit!
I had a large delivery of bird food supplies this afternoon so spent quite a while getting that all into containers and packed away neatly. I am trying to be more organised, that doesn’t come naturally.
I saw a couple of cards at the garden centre yesterday that I liked and that got me trying to do something similar. I have made an effort to keep the bedroom clear so that I have an uncluttered work space.
I did work on the jigsaw for a while yesterday evening as well.
After dinner this evening I had another play with cards. I tried the tree design on one of the patterned shiny wallpapers but the ink wouldn’t dry as you can see from the kitchen roll!
It still made quite a nice card though and I also had a play cutting out a robin.


May do a bit more puzzle now. I have packed all the pens etc away!

  1. A rest from walking does you good sometimes. I think we all tend to overdo it when we get into a routine. With me it seems to be all or nothing! I bet you’ve done more today than a lot of people have.
    I like the cards, particularly the Christmas tree. It looks good on both papers. I assume it did dry in the end. Damn, I had to type the C word then! Are you intending to make all your own cards this year, or just a few?
    Hope you’re enjoying the latest puzzle more than the previous one?

  2. I had to blot it dry so the colouring is more subtle. I will probably only make a few, unless I suddenly get much more crafty than I have for a long while.
    The puzzle is a nice picture with quite a few birds and relatively easy compared to some.
