karenlottycraft: April 2015
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 April 2015. Thank you for your comments. I am so grateful. I feel quite humbled that you take the time to pop by, especially when I see all of your creations. Today's offering was an experiment with Sue Wilson's Quilted Striplet. But take it as an experiment which wasn't worth the hassle! Glad I tried it, but I will leave it to how John made his and/or A5 type sizes. Is offering them all at a similar price to icon for a limited period. Tuesday, 28 April 2015. So, I'm going to play with ideas...

karenlottycraft: My first attempt...at book folding
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015/08/my-first-attemptat-book-folding.html
Tuesday, 11 August 2015. My first attempt.at book folding. Thank you for visiting. I had a fabulous day at my daughter's on Sunday. beautiful weather, lovely food and great company. Her "new" garden is lovely. It may be small but it's perfectly formed. I so want to do more dressmaking that I'm thinking of buying one. waiting for my daughter to have the time to help is a nightmare and our craft group only meet once a fortnight. I thought I'd show my very first attempt at book folding. You ladies, Wendy.

karenlottycraft: Card using scraps...
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015/08/card-using-scraps.html
Tuesday, 4 August 2015. Thank you, once again for your kind comments. I hope you will try the furniture wax technique. It is certainly a nice way to use those pots of mica, which I must admit sit on my shelf and don't get used very often. I had a great week end. The dancing on Saturday was. shall I say. different. It was advertised as "Three Voices from Los Van Van" Seemingly two of them couldn't get visas! So we got a bit of a refund. I had a small piece of card left over from a sheet of a Llidl card pa...

Saturday, 29 August 2015. Thank you coming to visit, and if you have time to leave a comment, I do appreciate it. If any of you have been wondering why I haven't commented on your blog, I apologise. Blogger wouldn't let me for some reason let me do so on my little iPod. Thank you for your lovely comments about Thursday's offering - Jackie. I've seen the Minc machine and wonder if their foils would be suitable for the Patsy May machine. I must find that out! Black cardstock for the matting. It will give m...

karenlottycraft: July 2015
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 July 2015. Thank you again for your kind comments on my previous post. It's good to know Ang that I am not the only one who makes a card and lay it on their grave. We did have a lovely day. There was 14 of us plus 4 children. I don't think the pub/restaurant quite knew what had hit them! It was very heart-warming to see some of his friends there too. Sentiment printed onto A4 super smooth 250gsm card stock - landscape orientation, trimmed and folded into a 5x7 card. SO my week end starts here.

Saturday, 30 May 2015. Yes I know it's Saturday! I don't post on Fridays a. I can usually be too busy with work, housework etc. I have visited Erika's blog a few times and love it.

Talking of Lidll I wasn't able to get any of the card and kits on Thursday! Might do a bit of Salsa dancing tomorrow afternoon. Thursday, 28 May 2015. I may ha...

karenlottycraft: The dress...!
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-dress.html
Tuesday, 18 August 2015. The infamous dress is finished - Yay! After the issues with my (new! Sewing machine, messing about with the pattern, lengthening waist, and length of dress, altering the size, adding pockets,putting the buttonholes on the wrong piece of pocket, first time of doing a princess seam, taking away the pleats etc I am quite pleased with the result. I did enjoy doing it and have learnt a lot of lessons, so I will carry on. 18 August 2015 at 15:15. Brilliant dress Karen, beautiful colour.

karenlottycraft: I told you I do simple!
http://karenlottycraft.blogspot.com/2015/08/i-told-you-i-do-simple.html
Thursday, 6 August 2015. I told you I do simple! Here's another very simple but I think very effective card. I made it for a friend who is in hospital and of course no fresh flowers are allowed. I assume her diet is very restrictive too. I was going to send her an edible bouquet instead here. Which I have used a lot because they are close to where I live. They usually make the perfect gifts for somebody in hospital and are a bit different as fresh flowers are a no no. 6 August 2015 at 14:50. I have that ...
