Summer of Colour Week 1



I hope you are all sitting down when you read this - I actually did some crafting last night!! I did my first page for the Summer of Colour - the colours were citron green and turquoise, I dont think the photo shows the colours very well but they are the right ones, or at least as near as I had to them.

I thought I would show you a photo of my new craft space - under the spiral staircase just outside hubbie's study. There is also a bookcase on the other wall which is filled with boxes. Now just to get some arty stuff on the walls to brighten the space up a bit.


Not quite the craft room that I had in my last house but I think it will do very nicely. Where do you do your crafting?

Great job with those colors - lovely card. Your new craft space looks nice & ready for lots of crafting. I'm so blessed to have an entire room to craft in (and hold all my stash LOL).

I love those colours....and was so pleased that they 'won' this week.
I craft in the dining room....though it does mean that some days we actually can't eat at the table!!

Hi Fiona! This is a beautiful card - it's so nice to "see" you again ;)
AND congratulations on your new space - under the stairs would work for me! It looks perfect. I converted our guest room into a "studio," poor guests only get a fold out couch now ;0 xoxo

I like what you did with the colors. Looks pretty nice to me. Your craft place will be great once you get your artsy stuff on the wall. Nice job on SOC. Nice to meet you.

Fiona,
So glad you're playing along! It feels good to do some crafting, doesn't it? I think SOC is a really easy way to get back to it. I'm posting my week #1 creation on Friday.

Your first page for summer of color is beautiful! I like these blue, cute flowers and the dreamy background. I also like it so much to see your craft space since I am currently also trying to set up a proper craft space for me in our basement.

Beautiful piece! It has a summer-y beach-y feel to me.

How great to be able to get crafting again, and what a lovely space that is going to be. Look forward to seeing what you do with the wall.
