Poppies

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

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:
The June Challenge at Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge
Challenge 444 at  Fab 'N' Funky Challenges 

Happy Crafting

Hugs Jackie
