2nd Year Fundraising 29/3/11

As second years, we have started to fundraise to collect money to help pay towards future shows that we would like to participate in and display our work.  We all handcrafted and made different items and also brought in items such as clothes and jewellery that could either be bought or used as a swap for something else.  We raised £170!!
Well done 2nd years!!
The first five cards are ones that I have designed and made.
