Happy Tuesday people, the kids are back at School or College and you’re getting back to your normal routine, but in your head you know that you’re thinking ahead to Halloween and Christmas! It seems like it’s far away, but you know it will catch up with you soon; I’m here with some fabulous crafting ideas for you this Autumn which will help you ease gently into the season and get you ahead of the game.

Firstly, let’s think about all those thank you cards and birthday cards you’re going to need now you’re back. Who did you a favour over the summer? Wouldn’t a thank you card go down well? How about any anniversaries or celebrations coming up? Why not grab my Punch Art or Foxy Friends classes for some children / fun themed cards for any occasion. Want something more adult, look out for my Floral Phrases online class launching Sunday 11th September!

All of these options are and will be available via my Online Classes page throughout the Autumn.
