Wedding Invitations

Well, it is a glorious day here in Bollington - the sun is bouncing off White Nancy and the blue sky is a wonderful backdrop for such a calming icon.

Today is the day I make the flowers for my cousin's hand crafted Wedding Invitations.  

Creating hand made cards is something I have done for one or two years (ok - make that 21 years!) and have had quite a few of my designs published in several creative magazines over the years (17 years!)

The important thing about crafting is that is has to be a labour of love.  It is no good sitting down to make something beautiful for someone when you are in a bad mood of any kind or feeling rushed.  

Today is a perfect day - my mood is great and by the time I have finished I will feel as though I have had a soothing massage.

So - I am off to make some 'anonymous' flowers (as my Mum would have called them). They are actually inspired by Aquiligia which are one of my favourites.

the day before

The sun is streaming through the studio window, White Nancy is looking resplendent, draped in the rays and I'm sitting at my desk drinking the best cup of coffee I've had in a long time. And I made it myself!

I have so much to do for tomorrow, I'm a little concerned it's going to be finished! At least I have the design agreed for the East Cheshire Hospice mosaic and I know what I'm doing for the Bridgend Centre painting.

Going to get off and finish my brochure.

See you later!

Milk Bottle Top Hill

Good morning folks!  BRR - well, we woke up this morning FREEZING! Yes, the heating had decided to go to sleep and not wake up this morning. It's not all bad, though, a little persuasion from me and it awoke, albeit sleepily.  Ah, warm again.

I was chatting to a friend of mine the other day and we were talking about White Nancy. She said their school would take children up to 'milk bottle hill' in Bollington. I wonder if this is White Nancy? It does fit!

That leads me to my next though, I'm delivering some card making sessions at the community centre on 25th November and I think I might design a Christmas White Nancy Card...

Ok - that's me signing off for this morning. Got to get my boy to school then come back and create.

Have a good day
