Twilight crop class



I have taught a class at the Twilight crop on the first Wednesday of every week, 6.30 - 10.30 at Olveston school Nr Bristol. I run it with a few friends.
We were going to just get together once a month then decided it would be great for every crafter to come and join in & a good way to be Inspired & inspire.

Hope you like it ...it was a little bit of a struggle to teach as everyone seemed a little tired & we started the class later !
Keep a look out for Debbie Roberts Altered tin for the next class....i think it might even be Christmas themed. :)

There are only a few spaces left so you will have to hurry. It will be a paper craft project and you will be using Fiskars Tools.
Myself & Caroline will be there too.
Come and have a great day out plus great chance to shop and visit the Fiskars stand where a QVC Demonstrator will be Demonstrating a new Punch.
Look forward to seeing you xx

Flower Embellishment


Afternoon xxx
I have published a Embellishment I made for Fiskarettes made with Fiskars Squeeze punches Circles X.L & Large. You'll need 8 Large Circles punched with the Large Circle Squeeze punch. One XL Circle punched with the XL Circle Squeeze punch, Some stick on gems, Glue dots, Ink (opt).

Pinch 7 of the smaller circles as I have done in the photo below…



Then fold back edges in the next photo below….



Next I’ve glued the petals around the base of the XL Circle (this just makes it easier to pick up and glue onto your project) forming a ring of petals. You will need lots of glue dots the big juicy ones are better seeing the petals are not flat.

Glue gems or pearls onto the last Circle (ink edges if wanted) Add lots of glue dots to the back and place onto the flower. Take the off cuts of the punch and roll round like a tight swiss roll….unravel a little and glue behind the flower.

Hope you like xxxx
This is what i've made with it too .....

Our NEW Twilight Crop & Craft.




We are really excited about our first ever crop and hope that it is an enjoyable friendly place to come and laugh,chat & be inspired and more importantly scrap on a evening. The crop is on Wed 19th MAY ~ 6.30 - 10pm at Olveston School.(outskirts of Bristol)It will be £5 for the crop , classes are extra. Light Refreshments available.

We will have a class at our first crop, Taught by by myself and we will also will be asking you to fill in a questionnaire to ask you what you would like to see at an evening crop in the future.

We will have a small selection of 12 by 12" papers and some card stock but we are thinking about having a shop in the future if it is viable.

As one persons 'junk' is often another person's 'treasure', if you have any scrapping supplies you would like to sell, please make sure it is clearly labelled with the price you would like and your name. Joy will be running the second hand table for the first half hour of the crop.

We are hoping to open the gates at 6.30 on the dot, as the school have informed me they have an after school club and need to ensure every child is off the premises before we open up the playground for parking. Please do not drive in the playground before 6:30 (there are places to wait in the layby outside if you are early.

See you very soon.

Debbie, Jayne, and Joy. x

Rag Doll finally finished :)



Here's a little doll I made with a kit I bought. I say I made it but I did have lots of help from Lynne a friend because the instructions were awful & I am not a sewer! still think she needs a mouth. she's got beads in her bottom lol but that gives her a bit of weight. I had to sew a little cotton bag to put them in as we decided they might come out of the felt seams.
A what I called 1 hour project took all day :) But she's cute & my 4 yr old loves her (thankgoodness) :D
