21st June, 2018 My First Attempt at a large bow Card.

Hi, This is my very first attempt at making a bow card. Pretty pleased at how it turned out, got a bit carried away with the lace. Started going through my lace box ( pretty big ) and was finding all bits and bobs, so was loving this to be able to use them....hence getting carried away !!  First rule in making this kind of card, be so extra careful cutting out and copying the template and to be honest I did find the making of it quite easy. Hope you like it.

Now you can see how I got carried away with the lace !

Thank you for taking a peep and hope this inspires you to have a go !

14th June 2018 A bit of Shabby Chic.

Hi everyone, Hope all is well with you. My fractured foot is coming along very well but getting a little bit of ' cabin fever '  Cannot walk too far, but getting better every day.

It certainly gives me the opportunity to do a bit more craft work and I have been making some pretty Foamiran flowers. Here is some of my work.

The filigree bow is an old die, I think it could be a Sue Wilson one, but it does get a lot of use.

The large circular die is a Cheery Lyn die, again had for a number of years but so very pretty.

Hope you like my flowers, thank you for taking a peep xx

5th June 2018 , A few more cards.

Helle, Good morning, hope all is well with you. I have been doing a few more ' less is more cards ' after receiving some beautiful papers by Alexandra Renke, plus a couple of her dies which only arrived yesterday. Like all crafters, itching to use them.

       

             The peony die cut flower was painted using Brush paints to match the tulip.

This one is again using the Renke papers but decided to do something totally different , a bit of a collage thing going off on this one.

Thank you for taking a peep at my work, always appreciated, have  a wonderful day.
