Playing With Felt

Good Evening. My blog is about to go quiet for a short time as I complete my move to Mushroom Cottage, so bear with me, folks.

It's been a busy few days, of packing and lugging boxes betwixt the two addresses, and of spending an unearthly length of time in Ikea, choosing such non-essentials as, er, a bed and a couch! Himself and I did find time to join hoardes of other people in climbing the Braid Hills on Sunday night to watch the end-of-festival fireworks. It was a lovely, clear night and we got a pretty good view of the display colourfully lighting up the sky from the Castle. We even listened to the accompanying orchestral music, using the FM radio on my phone, sharing the headphones between us!

Having a limited supply of craft stuff left unpacked at the "old" abode has given me a bit of a challenge, but I have risen to it manfully and have even done a bit more recycling, using a couple of embellishments that I made during my "felt phase".

I made loads of these Christmas trees for my Crimbo cards a year or so ago and really enjoyed doing so. This card still needs wording but I have packed away all my stamps - oops!

The felt flower adds a nice touch to this simple birthday card, made using free My Minds' Eye papers.

So that's it for now, readers. I hope to report back from my new abode very soon!
