How has your week been so far? I have finished invigilating for this set of exams. I should have a bit more time to craft now. Let's see how that works out.
Back in April I popped into one of our local charity shops. I picked up a pack of National Trust Notelets for 50p. The images on the notelets were very pretty. So I decided to make them into cards.
I liked the sketch that we used for a recent challenge at the Moving Along with the Times (MAWTT) Challenge blog. So I had another go with the aim to make a birthday card for my mother-in-law who loves poppies.
The Poppy image is very pretty. I used the image from the front of the notelet. There was a small image on the back that I put on the inside of my card. I also had a piece of paper left over that I could use for a shopping list.
There were two types of card in the pack.
Here are the thank you cards that I made. I still have the image from the packaging to use. I think that was 50p well spent.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Happy Crafting
