V&A

Hi everyone. I am very excited today as I'm going to London for the weekend tomorrow- with friends, no children and no husband! I'm especially looking forward to a trip to the V&A for their Winnie the Pooh exhibition.

Totally coincidentally, last week Trimcraft launched their fabulous new V&A papercraft collection, based on fabrics found in the museum. I bought some bits from the Create and Craft launch but then was very lucky and won more in a little competition for Trimcraft demonstrators. Just look how gorgeous the collection is:

I'm sure I'm going to be using this collection lots over the next few weeks, although I'm tempted just to paper my walls instead. This is the first card I have made with it:

Everything on the card is from the collection, except from the blue card from my stash. I have used:

• 8x8 paper pad
• Cream 7x5 card blank
• Washi tape 
• Frame
• Paper flowers
• Sentiment sticker
• Pearls

I love how well the patterns work together, just so pretty.

Hope you all have a great weekend, whatever you are up to. Cathy x
