May's Mid Month Inspiration


Hello! Hope this Friday morning finds you well, and welcome back to our mid month inspiration! This month our theme is "A step back in time" influenced by our historic year. This theme can be interpreted anyway you choose (vintage, historic etc etc)

This month our challenge is influenced by our centenary celebrations of the 1916 Rising.
The Rising was launched by Irish republicans to end British rule in Ireland and establish an independent Irish Republic while the United Kingdom was heavily engaged in World War I. It was the most significant uprising in Ireland since the rebellion of 1798, and the first armed action of the Irish revolutionary period. (Thanks to Wikipedia!)

Today we have beautiful mid month inspiration from Sucheta



We look forward to seeing your wonderful entries. Please note some blogs we are unable to comment on, as we don't have a subscription/membership.

Our challenges are open to ANYTHING crafty or arty - cardmaking, scrapbooking, altered art, crochet, knitting, sewing, cake decorating, painting, drawing, candle making, jewellery making, whatever makes you craft or be creative we would like to see it!

If you are crafting and it meets the theme, why not give it a go?
Hope you have a great weekend,
Happy crafting,
Eithne :)
