PAPER POSY I was asked by the North Staffordshire Asperger's and Autism Association (NSAAA) to help the children in their craft group make a paper posy that they could present to the Countess of Wessex when she visited them.  I chose several Stampin Up punches and old bigz dies and papers from the subtles range. I demonstrated how to make flowers and then let their imagination and choice of colour run riot. We all had a fantastic time and made a huge pile of flowers. I then took these home and turned them into the post using florists wire and a hot glue gun. Unfortunately I was working elsewhere and so was unable to attend the visit, however I'm pleased to be able to share these photos with you.
