Painted frame with a Treasure gold scallop frame, decorated with painted, stamped and cut out JoFY flowers.

Afternoon: Crackly on Canvas (£12)

So there you have it, we really hope you can make it to the show this coming week, remember its Thursday to Saturday, at the Sandown Exhibition Centre, Surrey. It's going to be nice to have a different format to usual with all these classes on offer, so we'll see you there!
