Beauty blooms from Within


Another layout just for me - I am on a roll and loving it !





I am playing with a 'simpler, cleaner' style and enjoying it, it won't last, I will revert to my cluttered shabby chic but a change is as good as a rest as they say.



The whole layout apart from the white background was entirely out of scraps. 

The two following cards are this weeks class cards.




I taught two different techniques with metal stencils.





Thankyou to Val who very kindly brought in some really delish cream cakes this week, I have never seen my card class so quiet lol.

I have a little mini book on my desk as I type and it needs a cover, so I will leave you for now and hopefully be back tomorrow with my book to share. 


Oooops one last thing before I go, thankyou Nicki for the yummy stash you brought me today xxx
