Last Stamping club of the summer.

I love my stamping club.  The ladies are all such fab people - eager to learn a "new to them" technique whilst chatting and teasing each other along the way.
One thing I learned fast is they love Molly Blooms.  Thats good because so do I.  I could do a Molly project each session but I try to stick to one a term so we learn lots of other projects too.
You may remember I did a class with Clare Rowlands back in 2011 and made a waterfall card.  Well I wanted to do waterfalls with the ladies so played around with the idea (if I admit to not being able to find the original would you mind? Therefore I had to work from scratch !). I wanted the waterfall to work from the side so the recipient could open the card - pull the tab and be wowed by the scenes in front of them.  I started off with 4 tabs - you know as waterfalls tend to have but downsized to 3 so the scenes inside were of a sizable nature.
I will show you the insides tomorrow as I am keeping them a surprise for the ladies too !
Hope you like my end of summer term project!

Thanks for stopping by today

  2. Sweet Project Clarky. Are you finished for the Summer now.
    I love my craft meet up. I run a workshop called "Cut n' Chat" (appropriate for me that, the Chat bit!)
    We meet one Monday a month and we do our own thing. Every now and then I set a project up for us all to do and the newer girls love that. I am teaching all next week, 12 7-11 year olds. Canvas, Rob (mdf man) cog clock and money box and a zutter mini book, full on, cannot wait tho'. Take care. Debbiex

    1. Sounds fab Debbie - I also run a monthly meet which doesnt stop for the summer so I still see some folks who go to that. I also organise a little jaunt around my birthday (11th Aug) so we meet up and have breakfast at wetherspoons then go off on a jolly crafty time together - this time we are going to northallerton to visit Paperlane and also the Strikes centre. Have fun at the summer school - its fab that the school encourage this creativity from kids xxx
