Hello to anyone reading this.
Thank you for visiting my blog.
I am writing this as a very tired , but happy person, who has recently returned from the Handmade Christmas Fair in Manchester Central, with Artcuts.
We had a great time and were very busy demonstrating different projects and doing three Make and Take sessions.
Our Make and Take went well and we met many lovely people, who were very enthusiastic crafters.
Thank you to any one who visited Artcuts stand. Hope you had a good day.
The show was held at Manchester Central , just a couple of minutes walk from our hotel.
A great venue surrounded by buildings with lovely architecture. I spent most of my time looking up , as we walked around.
We were also excited that the Christmas market was on, so we wandered around that one evening, after the show. It was quite magical.
This civic building had the most amazing ceilings that we could see from the square.
I would love to have had the time to visit this building.
Perhaps next time.
Here are a couple of things I made for the show.
The bunting went on the tree that ArtCuts had sponsored in the entrance lobby. I stuck on the ArtCuts embellishment shapes and used Wink of Stella clear and white pens and glitter to add twinkle.
. We did all the decorations for this in green and red and stamped them with Hobby Art Christmas stamps.
It looked very pretty when it was finished and was positioned right by the café, which was great.

Unfortunately, my photos do not do it justice.The lovely green and red heart bunting was done by Chris, and can be seen on her blog. (sketching stamper).
The tree next to the stand was decorated with different blues and white and looked very pretty too.
Again, rubbish photo. but you get the idea!!
Chris has the Fergus heart bunting on her blog now, that you can see in the photo. It is beautiful.
Fergus is another Hobby Art stamp we used at the show.
Will show some more next time.
Bye for now.

Hi Carole, Love your samples and saw Chris's on her blog. They are stunning too. If you need a trim, we are off around the 14th. Hugs, Carol S.xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post Carole and your photo's are great even though it was so cold when you took them. Good that you had photo's of the tree, wish I'd remembered to take some inside! Your makes were all gorgeous, you know one of my favourites but honestly as always I loved them all and your beautiful style. Thank you very much for the mention and for great company last weekend! Chris xx
