Cards and Papercraft Weekly Monday thread 22/7 - 28/7/19

Dear All,

A place to show all paper crafts and card making projects and items you have in your shops that come under the Papercraft theme.

If you have time we are all happy to be stumbled, tweeted, facebook liked, blogged to your heart’s content.

Most are happy to be pinned too, but they will say in their post if not.

Buyers if you don’t see what you are looking for, please ask.

This week’s theme is ‘pinks’

But if you haven’t anything that fits the bill, please list anything, your favourite, latest make, all to make a busy thread.

Good luck everyone

Tina :slight_smile: x

Happy Monday everyone :slight_smile:

Hope you all had a lovely weekend. We’ve been gardening (as always) and sorting through the attic, so much ‘stuff’ to sort through.

My ‘pink’ to start the week;

I’m wilting!!! lol

Just been outside, cloudy with a lovely breeze so I’ll be out there with my book

Welcome @LavenderandRoses and @AnneFontenoy

Great card Brenda @teabreaks - love it

Get ready with the fans etc etc for tomorrow, forecast the hottest day of the week

On the Jeremy Vine show at luch-time a GP recommended putting dry tea towels in the freezer and either lying on them or putting on your forehead in bed so I am going to try this tonight. One listener said he had done this and didn’t even get woken up last night by the thunder!!!

Here is mine for today

Hi everyone :slight_smile:

Yes, I’m ready for the heat tomorrow, I find it’s hotter inside than out. Good tip about the tea towels Carol . @cariadcrafts11 I had two ‘cold’ hot water bottle’s last night, they were a real help.

Loving the witch Brenda, @teabreaks I’ve just finished a new Halloween design too, nothing like being prepared.

My pink card for today;

Hi,

Not tried the cool towels or water bottles, but I find it is cooler upstairs, than with the fans on downstairs @daisywings @cariadcrafts11, don’t know why?

Here is another pink card

Evening

Phew hottest yet!!! Kept all windows shut and blinds down all day and just opened on the sunless part of the house now, so hopefully might get a breeze through. The tea towels were ok, the towels had warmed by the time I got in bed but they had cooled the pillows. Will try again tonight as the towels will have been in the freezer much longer. The hot water bottles I might give a try too.

Here is mine, yellow not pink!!

Hello, I’m new to Folksy and to the forum. The idea of being able to share my work with people who love papercraft like me is brilliant!

I hope you all love the new cards, I don’t work much with pinks but I think these fit the brief!

I look forward to contributing more in coming weeks.

Wow, Anne @AnneFontenoy, no thunder and rain here, a really nice day (sorry) with a cooling breeze. So glad to get back to our ‘normal’ temperatures. Great pelargonium

The cold water bottles did the trick last night too!!!

Nothing pink, but blue today
