A retreat project

Michelle and I like to have a little challenge for folks at the retreat - a little like an ice breaker, the challenge is usually to alter something. This time it was a piece of hanging fencing which we got from poundland! You can see Michelles version here. As I had Molly and George stamps to hand thats what mine had to be!
I did nothing much to the actual gate except remove the metal embelishments that were fastened to it - a few stamped images, some colouring and cutting out and here it is a picnic in the garden scene. This is my 3rd entry to The paperlane challenge this month and perfect for today as I go to The Craft range to see Clare demo again tonight. Its a craft club outing which we are very excited about! Really looking forward to seeing Clares work again. Whats more there is a pie and pea supper - we crafty gals know how to live it up!


Hope you have an exciting day planned too!
