My mission statement for this blog: Track the progress of my resolution to start a new craft project every week, create some sweet gifts and bolster my crafting street cred. This is the record of how it's going.

Project 68: Foxy paper cutting
Earlier this year I joined the Women's Institute (kind of siilar to the Junior League in the US) and each month we meet up and have a demo or talk and then there are charity and fund raising events through the year. This week's craft was paper cut valentines.
Our demonstrator, Poppy Chancellor, came with a few samples for us to follow. She had this fox illustration and it totally crackd me up as I knew Claire would appreciate a little pick-me-up.
I've done some paper cutting in the past but using the fox illustration from Poppy made it a lot easier. She helped with the letter as well, which was a challenge, which is why it's not very sraight. Proves I made it!
As Claire got it on Friday I was able to post it - I was keen to show it off all week. Crafts like this will hopefully help shake the dowdy, stuffy image of the Wi and show it is a bit saucier than people give it credit for!
