Crafty crafting

This afternoon I watched Kirstie's Handmade Britain for the first time. It has been on Channel 4 on a Wednesday night for the last few weeks but I haven't managed to catch an episode until now.

It is hosted by Kirstie Allsopp and shows all sorts of different crafts and she then enters competitions with what she has made. It has really inspired me to be more crafty and make things as this is something I enjoy doing and it really gives me a sense of achievement to see the finished product. I have recently posted a few times about the christmas cards I have made but am considering trying some other things.

I like baking so am going to try and do more of it. I am also tempted by things like jam and chutney making.

I am also quite tempted by some sort of needlecraft project as this could be something that I could undertake over a long period and would hopefully be very proud of what I made.

Any suggestions gratefully received!!

Even more Christmas cards!

I've taken some better quality pictures of the cards I've made so you can see them better.

Here they are:

I've made a few Welsh language ones for my friends too.

This one is my favourite out of all the ones I've done so far.

I need to make quite a few more to make sure I've got enough though!! I'd better crack on!

Thank Ewe...

This is a cute sheep card I have made for someone I work with to say congratulations on a promotion and also thank you as she has been a good friend to me recently.

I hope she likes it!

More Christmas cards

Here are a few more xmas cards I've made in a slightly different style.

I've taken up card making this week and am really enjoying it. It's something for me to concentrate on and I've found out that I'm more creative than I thought!
