Valentine's cards

      It has already been a week since my last post and a busy week!
Between crafting and PTA meetings, I haven't seen the time going! 
      Well, the craft coffee morning was quite a success, all five ladies really enjoyed it and found the experience (of crafting!) quite different.
They were all novice and did not know how to use a trimmer so I had to keep my projects very simple.
      Each lady made a different Valentine's card and here are some examples I did prepare for them. They either copied it or changed the colour combination and they all did a fantastic job. Well done ladies!
