We were a smaller group today as many of us are travelling. Five postcards were exchanged and
Rosalind came for the first time.
Heather started with a blue bunny card with bright colors, butterflies and a childlike feel which went to Avelina.
Mary did a calming scene of dark cranes against an orange sunset sky which she will save for Marjorie’s return. Mary also created a perfect little pocket envelope by sealing a letter size envelope and then cutting off the end.
Joanie created a damselfly (also known as a darning needle) for Mary with a vintage button and some metallic thread stitching.
Avelina had Carole racing across an atmospheric on her bike and
Shirley did a “girly” card for Joanie with pinks, lace and pink bows on hearts. Joanie’s favorite color palette.
Next week we are creating a card for the person second from our right. If you were not there and will come next week, make a card anyway. We just love looking at them!!!
This project is really sweet and many of us are creating things specifically for our person, sort of an homage. Fun! Fun! Fun!
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY on Sunday!
Joanie
