Well scrapping has taken a back seat lately and I have busy with other things. As you can see I have made my xmas cards already. I rarely do this and end up with only a few handmade ones, so I got in early! I have used papers and card from work, and also tried my hand at using Flowersoft. This is really cool to use and I love the effect it gives (See the 2 cards at top).
This is another project - unfinished, but I thought I'd share it. I struggle with back and blanket stitch, it drives me crazy but I keep going! I know I will get the hang of it one day, and I really love how good it looks - on other peoples work!! So here I just need to add a strip to the sides, and then do the back and add some hanging tabs. This one is going up on my wall, and is my take on a pattern from the recent "Creating Country Threads" magazine.
This little sheep is for my mother-in-law for christmas, as she loves sheep, and when I saw it in an old copy of "Country Craft and Decorating" I knew I had to make it! I have used different colors, and as you can see the stitches are'nt the best, but it is one of my better tries! To finish this off I just need to frame it.
