Lisbon is rough around the edges, which only adds to its charm and like no other city i have ever been to, every turn brings some small delight…..
I love my paper museum and paper victorian house so much that i started to do a bit of research into the illustrator Evaline Ness…..
and found i am inspired by her story and love her childrens` book illustrations…
It didn`t arrive for Christmas and i`ve been waiting patiently….just when i thought it wasn`t going to come it did..yey! All the way from American and i can see it used to be an old reference library book.I`ll be making this and my victorian house both by Evaline Ness. Here is a little look…
It was a bleak day when i visited Towneley Hall….but despite this it still felt like I had escaped, so my visit left me feeling peaceful.
I`m always drawn to tiles……
And this packaging was beautiful……
I thought i might use some of the things i saw to inspire the Pattern Design and Laser Cutting course i am running in Burnley.
I thought yesterday was going to be a snow day but the sun came out and we were able to venture out to Hebden Bridge……
It was really foggy but very pretty on the way……
We popped into Radiance, a lovely shop….selling lovely paper products, cards….i particularly like this decoration below….
And these lovely paper flowers……….
I bought a valentines card and then we went for tea and cake……..stopping for a glass of wine by Hollingworth Lake on the way home….
