Summer challenge

Hi and welcome back to my little corner of WOYWW.
I haven't blogged for a while but I have enjoyed reading what you have been busy doing.
Well we had the last club night onWednesday before our short summer break and decided to set ourselves a challenge. We each bought in some dies and swopped them and now we have to get busy and make some cards...


Quite an assortment you'll agree. Some more challenging than others.....what to do with the feathers ?  I liked the heart so I started with that one. Just got to put the greeting on. Sorry about the photos.


One of my other hobbies is gardening and I'd like to share with you some photos of the beautiful poppies I sowed and then forgot all about them!



Have a happy week

Lynda B

  6. Hi Lynda, nice to see you back. Love Poppies, we've had some self seed in our front garden for the last couple of years, have no idea where they have come from. Love the heart card, lovely muted colours. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #4 XxX

  7. Gorgeous poppies. Love the idea of die cut swapping. We used to have the occasional challenge where we would make up a bag with random paper, die cuts and embellishments and someone else had to produce a card with the contents. Happy WOYWW Sarah #25
