Candi Club Friday!

Candi Club Friday is back!

We want to share with all our USA friends what we are creating with Candi over in the UK.  So here is our Candi Queen, Marie Chillmaid, with her UK post for - Candi Club Friday!


Happy Friday Everyone!

It's lovely to be back here again after a bit of a break, hubby is slowly on the mend so I've got a little crafting time again - bliss!

It's all about Candi today.  As well as bringing you pics of  some of the samples I made for Julie's marathon  shows on Create & Craft TV last weekend I'll be dropping a couple of hints regarding an upcoming Candi fest.  Our lovely Julie was soooo amazing on TV last week they sent  her home early - she sold everything, yes literally everything, wow!!  Goes to show how much we all love Craftwork Cards products and the now sold out Paper Artistry is no exception, I just loved working with it and the matching Candi, double sided too no less -   just stunning. Here are some of my samples .........



An altered cane wall hanging with some Candi blooms and lots of glossed (using Glossy Accents) Candi and beautiful matching layered bow to hang it



Some simply decorated little note books that make a cute gift, great for girly dinner party gifts


Stunning papers with this amazingly kitsch little owl, just look at the matching Candi - you couldn't but love it!


This is just little squares of paper, see how wonderfully the papers all match, instead of two of the squares I have used Candi and stickled one square and glossed the other, I love the simplicity .........


This little box contained a gift that I received, I have just covered it and used it for the ring (alongside) made from card and Candi.

Over the next few weeks I will be blogging some Candi tutorials including some jewellery.  We will also be linking up with our Candi cousins in the USA and bringing you lots of Candi fun and plenty of chances to show us your creations and also to win some lovely Candi gifts.  Don't forget to pop by 
every Friday, tell your crafting buddies and make sure that you are registered as one of our blog followers in order to be eligible to leave your comments so that you are in with a winning chance.

Watch this space for more exciting Candi news, see you next Friday and in the meantime if you have any Candi masterpieces to share please email on cardsandcandi@hotmail.co.uk.  Until the next time keep happy, smiling and crafting.
