Eileen Godwin's workshop


Well yesterday the talented Eileen Godwin held a workshop in Warwick, so it was mighty easy for me to attend. She taught us some fab techniques and in this post i will show you the cards that I made.

This is the fish card that Eileen was referring to. She said she really liked it. Her original card had a beautiful flourish and used Sheena's flowers and had a red background. Now i'm not a red girl so i went for my trusty blues. Eileen commented on the blue and I answered : 'it is the sea'. So she says  'I have some nice fish by Ryn'. So off I went hunting for the kelp and the fish. i had taken the bubbles with me. and this was the result. The sentiment is from Clarity stamp.
 


And special thanks to my friend Karen Gill who gifted me a nice white sharpie that made it's debut on these cards.


This was the last card we made and the first time i have used a Lavinia stamp. The sentiment is from Sheena Douglas.


This was the first card we made. Eileen had kindly die cut all  the butterflies we needed. We were supposed to use Ryn's water doplet stamps but i couldn't find mine so i used this version instead (also by Ryn), so I could be different lol. Sentiment is from Clarity stamp.


When I went home I made this one. This time I stamped in black archival and the sentiment is from Sheena Douglas.

I hope you enjoy my makes as much as i enjoyed making them. And i would love to see what you all think Theresa xx
