Thank You for Letting Me Join In

Evening,

I spent a very enjoyable morning with an old friend, and lots of new ones at 'Stitch and Bitch', a Wednesday morning get together to stitch, drink tea and coffee, and bitch (talk) for England.

Having recently moved in with my Mum, I met up with an old friend who suggested that I join the group in the New Year, and I have been looking forward to it ever since. It is seen as an opportunity to take any stitching or knitting project along and work on it uninterrupted by life while in the company of good friends. It's a fabulous idea and one that I thoroughly enjoyed. I am already looking forward to next week lol.

I rarely do stitching on cards, and I haven't taken any pictures of what I managed to get done today, so here is a Thank You card instead. It's got ribbon on it. Does that count?
The background is created with a Multiple Resist technique with a stamped and embossed image over it.
I painted the flowers with bleach and then wrapped the panel with a piece of ribbon. The sentiment is a Peel-off.
Here is another Thank You card using diecuts on an alcohol inked background.
Thanks for stopping by.
Love and Crafty Hugs

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you All.

No I'm not late to the party, it's the start of the Chinese New Year 2022 - The year of the Tiger.

I searched through my stash of cards to find something oriental to post today and this was what I found.
It was made many years ago using a stamped and embossed image. I believe the stamp was from Great Impressions.
I added watercolour to the image and then layered it onto a torn panel.

No late night partying here I'm afraid. I'm off to get some sleep since I'm back to work at 4am tomorrow!!! We are struggling a bit with staff at the moment (paternity leave and a case of Covid) so I worked several hours extra today and I'm shattered.

Thanks for stopping by.
