It will be great to see those of you who are going to the Crafting at Ally Pally show at Alexandra palace tomorrow or sunday especially as I spent yesterday helping with the heavy lifting to load the stands and today I will be helping set up! Todays project is again one from my last Hochanda shows and was one of the demos. I am giving this one away as well Jy=ust leave a comment for a chance to have this card sent out to you! I have been asked when I am back on just a reminder that all my T.V appearances are listed on the right of this page however I have agreed to add a show on the 30th September with some stunning watercolour stamps and techniques so that will be next.
Todays project is the Gift voucher holder that I made using the Sue Wilson Pyxsis gemini die set in Blue dusk and coconut white. I hope you were able to see this one being made if not I have detailed the sizes below
cut card to 18cm wide A4
SCore at 10cm and 20cm
for a chance to wine this one soimply leave a comment all winners will be selected, at random, on Monday and posted on the blog Tuesday!
Enjoy...

Hi John
ReplyDeleteWell, I just love this gift voucher holder and would love to be the proud owner of it. I haven't yet watched all of your shows yet, so it's a good job I can record them. I'm so looking forward to meeting you again at Ally Pally tomorrow.
A really beautiful wallet. I make gift voucher wallets but this is a totally different style.
ReplyDeleteDoreen R
Another stunning voucher card, I remember watching this being made and admiring the style and colour. After white on white, blue and white is my second favourite. Looking forward to seeing you again on Hochanda and of course the appearance of Julia on her show. Can't make Ally Pally this year hopfully I can go next spring. Kind regards Sandra Kent.
ReplyDeleteHi John
ReplyDeleteHope you have recovered from all that lifting, thanks for all your hard work, beautiful colours and wallet thanks for the opportunity.

Such a magnificent piece of paper crafting John, you really are gifted. I love the Blue Dusk card you've used I find it very difficult/impossible to find nice blue or pink card. Don't work too hard over the weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi John, what a lovely little project love the cornflower blue card. Have a great weekend. Take Care Melody xxx
ReplyDeleteLoved this when I saw you demo it on Hochanda, it is absolutely fab! Pat x
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, and neat for a present. I can watch Hochanda, but not order - how frustrating is that?
