Easy Autumn Projects

Hi there...

I'm feeling much better today thankfully... I'm waiting on the results of x-rays and I have blood test to go for but fingers crossed all will be well. The main thing is I'm feeling better and I'm back into crafting...
Last night was club night and I haven't seen my group for a few weeks so I prepared 3 simple Autumn projects for them... Heck the room was heaving.. I kid you not! 
Thankfully Pat was with me and she'd also brought a friend who is visiting and we did have a good number of support workers too...

So first up we created some simple framed pictures


I printed and stamped some BG paper and cut out the shapes for them and let them embellish with gems stones


Then we did some cards


I bought a whole heap of silk leaves (100) for £2.30 on Ebay, so much easier that me having to do them and I cut out more leaves for the ears, circles for the google eyes and also a nose and computer generated a sentiment.

Lastly with the off -cut from the cards we made bookmarks


I really wish you could see their faces when they've made their projects... All the hours put in is so worth it - Well, I keep telling my aching back that Lol!

Wishing you all a good day ...

Till soon

Gosh, you must have been pretty sick if you had to have x-rays and blood tests. I hope it was just the stomach flu and I'm glad you're feeling better. I know they loved these projects! That must truly be the most rewarding thing. They're all beautiful! The leaf face is so clever. Looks like a fox. And then the tree with the single leaf for the top -- wow! They've probably all got their framed pictures propped up in their rooms now. I hope you keep feeling better and better, Ros!

I LOVE that scene with that sweet little deer. Your "leaf" card is BRILLIANT! Buying these leaves was a great investment:) And that tag is lovely too. I have an idea of their faces working on these projects. I admire your creativity and the fact that you put so many hours in preparing. Good to hear you are feeling a bit better. Hope to speak soon.
Sending love,

Three beautiful projects for one night? You must have been creating with them until after midnight! I'm relieved to know you had so much help for the preparations as well! Love them all - and very much like the idea of the black circles behind the eyes on that... leaf dog. Makes it so much cuter!
