Make My Day ~A British Party~

Since the beginning of the year when these British themed items became available in the shops I couldn't help but drool over them and I really wanted to own some items but refused to pay the full amount. I waited really patiently and recently I noticed they were half price so bought myself what I wanted but I'm sure they will go even cheaper. In August I woke up one day and suddenly felt I wanted to create something using a corner punch... I didn't own one and usually when I create corners I make up my own template. So it meant going in search of one at the craft shop in the city, the owner told me she'd ordered loads but they would arrive the following week... how impatiently I waitied but I did and went a whole week later to buy one.... I also received a present from a parking warden but thankfully the only thing I've had to pay is the postage to appeal against it.

 

Once I bought everything this weekend I sat and created these and I honestly could have kept making even more... I've kept the background the same because I needed to beat the sun-set and rain clouds....

The bus one I wanted to write London but I didn't have any Ns in white so had to go with the next thing even though I'm not 100% happy with it.

 

Remember you can always click on the images for a bigger photo which will link to my flickr. Now though I really need to sit and make some Christmas cards but for some reason I keep putting it off....

Make My Day~You are...~

As I mentioned I wanted to make something simple....

I've used rubber stamps, ink, alphabet letters and yarn to create these postcards. Here's what I came up with....

They were so easy to make and look so effective. This was inspired by some of the feel good projects I've been doing lately but whether they made someones day or not only they will know.

I wanted to make a whole range but today and yesterday my niece turned up and it was hard to do them. The Amazing one I stamped with her sitting in my lap because she some how always ends up there without me realising it, its why the stamping isn't so well thought out. I used an A4 sheet of card cut in half length ways.

 

I may make a couple more depending on time.

Make My Day ~Postcards~

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I stumbled across our tourist and information centre which closed some time last year and I didn't know where it had gone. I mentioned that I'd buy some postcards of places in Bradford for you to have whether you're a collector or just like them.

The first and last photo are of our City Hall and City Park. Here's a little bit more about it on my other blog.... Strawberries and Buttercups. The middle postcard is of the Bradford Industrial Museum which is home to many varieties of olden day technology. I only remember going on a school trip for a whole day here and it was so cold it never encouraged me to go back. Still having a look at that postcard, its really quite tempting.
