I also lost my first Husband to the big C when I was quite young. I have 3 children and 3 stepchildren. 12 Grandchildren and 5 Great Granddaughters and 3 Great Grandsons. I have been card making for about 25 years. I have made things all my life as my Mum and Grand Mother taught me lots of hobbies.

MILK BOTTLE CARTONS FOR CRAFT FAIR.

Hi and welcome to my blog all my talented friends, and visitors.
I am so sorry I have been missing again, but as
some of you suggested I have had quite a few 
orders when my daughter's colleagues saw my
Baby Card.
I also have been making milk carton boxes for
the craft fair on Saturday.
Originally I was only going to help my niece 
with her stall, but my sister in law suggested I
take some of my craft things as well.
Now my niece is disabled and makes brilliant
cards, so I didn't want more of the same thing
on the stall so I was in a quandary what to do 
till I was visiting Carole Zorro's blog and she 
had these lovely milk cartons on there.
You will find her blog HERE  please try and
make her a visit as she makes wonderful cards,
and other fabulous projects.

So here is what I have been working on.





Now I made all these with the Lidl card I 
bought a few weeks ago, just adding a few 
embellies. This card was slightly bigger than A4., and there was 30 sheets of it for the gorgeous 
price of £1-99. So I do hope they get some more
in soon. 
I have also made some jewellery boxes out of snippets, so I will show them next week.

Thank you again for your visit and comments,
I really do appreciate your time spent visiting me.
Hopefully I will manage to get round to visting
you also, with the heavy work load I have  at the moment.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

  5. Jenny your boxes are fab, Lidl card is great, I love using it. I keeping hoping they get glue guns in at some point, I had one from there a few years ago and I got a few boxes of glue sticks too, had to buy a new gun but still have sticks thankfully they fit my new one, but it was a good price. Hope your fair goes well, these boxes won't last long I am sure . Hazel xxx
