This weather really is unbelievable, pouring with rain again. Despite the awful weather yesterday the food and craft fair was a great success. Lots of lovely customers, loads of money raised for MacMillan Nurses and I had my best ever sales. I sold 25 cards and almost £15 worth of crafty stash. Need to get crafting to replace them as I have loads of craft fairs over the Summer. My next craft fair is on Wednesday, thankfully another indoor venue. Its such a nice social thing to do, especially as I work from home. There are always other cardmakers who like to rummage through my stash for sale and have a good chat.
I have another bag to share with you today, this time using one of the gorgeous Pollycraft bears, which has been coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers. I have used the lush Papermania Henbury Lane papers, DI Tattered Rose, MS border punch and Memory Box Willow Dragonfly and butterfly dies with kraft card.
Here's a close up of the image. I like trying different colour combos and as the pink is so bright went for a paler teddy. I used saffron, vanilla and primrose.
