I amazed myself that I was able to get up and get going quick enough to make it to market yesterday. Only sold one card but it was one I had had on the stall for the best part of a year! I usually take a nap in the afternoon after market but for some reason decided to craft instead yesterday. I made this card with papers from the last Making Cards magazine that I received before not renewing my subscription.

This was from a pack of cards I was given at the last crafting weekend I went on. The paper was from the same Create and Craft magazine and the flowers punched from vellum. I was about to put it in the sleeve when I noticed I had forgotten to give the flowers jewelled centres and had to add the deep pink gems at that point.

I don't think the gems would have shown on that photo although the one on the left might have just been visible.
I made these the day before because people had been asking last year for get well cards suitable for men - they don't like giving the usual floral ones to men.

And this one too used a topper I had had quite a while. A larger but very similar picture of a vintage engine had been welcomed by a lady looking for a get well card for a man last year.

Looks like you've been busy again
Lovely cards

Thanks Dawn. I shall look forward to seeing some of your pictures soon. I've used another of the old engine pictures tonight on a card for my son-in-law's birthday. He loves trains. I had quite a lot of old train pictures and swan pictures in my stash and have no idea where they came from now!
