Crop

Sorry I've left it a bit late tonight,, got a bit carried away with watching tv! Well I havent got a card to show you today cause I want to tell you about a fab crop that I've been to today (along with 23 other people!). It is run by Eileen, Karen & Sheila and is held at Allhallows, Kent. We have spent the day chatting, drinking tea, eating scrummy cake (well it looked scrummy, unfortunately I can't eat it due to a food allergy), sharing ideas, and making the odd card or two! Karen holds a 'Make & Take' which many people took part in today and we have a monthly competition. This month it was an animal card and Val won it with her frog card. (She gets free entry to the crop next month). For next month's competition, due to it being the Royal Wedding, we need to design a wedding card.  We also had the pleasure of seeing Holly & Daisy today for a little while. They will probably write about the experience on their blog tomorrow and show you what they got up to!!
We also have a page (The Allhallows Croppers) on Facebook which can be found here and Eileen (our dear Leader as she is known) runs a card competition every month which anyone can join in with (even if you dont know us!). Please take a look as your chances of winning this month are very high as nobody has posted a pic of a card yet!!
Anyway I hope I havent bored you tonight, please visit again soon. Tomorrow there will be a card to see!
Bye for now

Crop competition

Last Saturday was our monthly crop at Allhallows. Every month we have a competition and whoever wins gets free entry to the next crop they attend. This month the subject was to make a Valentine card but NOT to have the colour red on it. There were lots of lovely cards and this is my entry. Unfortunately it wasn't the winning one but I will try again next month.

The image is from Kenny K and I coloured it with Promarkers and then mounted onto a nesties frame. The heart backing papers were from my stash. I think they were originally from a QVC pack. I layered these all onto pink card and then used stickles around the edge. I finished off with card candy and a greeting printed from the computer which i also mounted onto a smaller nestie frame.

Im trying to blog on a daily basis (apart from 2 days when I work and just dont get time) so please pop back tomorrow for another card.

I have a poorly son today so will be indoors all day. Hopefully he will sleep for a while and I've got a few cards to make so will try to get them done.

Bye for now, happy crafting
