Crafters’ corner 2020

If anyone shops at Aldi...they have a good range of crafting bits and bobs in at the moment. Needle felting kits, embroidery, sewing kits etc etc.

 

I'm thinking of carrying on making greetings cards, but because Keith passed away i won't be able to put any inserts in with a verse because Keith did it on his computer and i don't do computers.
Would I still be able to sell them without it ? i know can buy cards without anything inside.

 

Morning @Logan. Sounds like a good idea, especially for the forthcoming winter months. I prefer cards without verses as I like to express my own sentiments that are more personal. I have a box of verse-free cards (which sadly I don't use now) all with beautiful photographs of cats on them.
You do very creative work so I say, go for it.

 

Thank you @Victoria i will then.

 

I agree with Victoria. I do prefer a card where I can write my own message . Xx

 

Thank you @Snorky85 X

That's cute Sian. It looks like fine work, what size 'Aida' fabric have you used?

 

That is SO cute Sian.

 

It’s 14 count I think - what I consider as standard....

 

It looks great @Sian in Belgium

 

Yes, I think that's what my 'animals' were, fairly easy on the eyes. I'm working '18' at the moment but don't think I could go any smaller.

I've just spent a while looking through my granddaughter's craft skills. Cava fine art studio. I am really chuffed at the quality of her work. Her university course has really been affected by this pandemic.

 

Just finished making these cards, haven't put anything inside, the sentiment is on the front. The green pattern is backing paper and the picture is what Keith printed out.the stars are peal offs with sticky backing on them.
