Paper piecing

Hi Blogers, I think the cold weather is beginning to set in, it is getting chilly in the evenings now, not long before I give in and put the heating on me thinks! My hands are too cold to craft.

This was another Jane Gill class at the Glitter pot. This paper has printed circles on it and we just punched them out to make a flower and stuck a button in the middle and placed a few leaves round the edge.
This time we used MME papers cut out the flowers and leaves and just placed them on randomly to create a beautifully simple card. And of course I do love this paper.
A little birdie told me it was your Birthday! Suits this card down to a T!
The Birdie was hand drawn then placed on to various shape nestabillities and the sentiment is from one of Jane Gill's word sets from Woodware. Finished with a few free hand squiggles.
I can not show them yet but in reply to my friend Jo's blog message, I have already started some Christmas cards with a few more idea's to put down on paper if I get a chance later this week. I am in two mind if  I should  go to Ally Pally at the weekend, it's just it takes such a long time to get home from there, the getting there is ok! Hope if you crafters do go you have a lovely time and dont spend too much!   Oh I am so funny!

Fabulous cards Sarah, lovely colours. The Birdy one is absolutely gorgeous and I like how you have handdrawn it. I cannot draw to save my life. Cannot wait to go to Ally Pally, might see you there. Hugs JO.xxx
