30th August, 2018, Something Different, A Bridal Bouquet.

Hi all, I decided to do something entirely different from my hand made cards. I have made many times organza flowers for different projects, cushions and the like, but never thought of trying to make a bridal bouquet. These Shabby Chic style bouquets are becoming quite popular, so this is my first attempt and I must say I am pretty pleased with it. The thing is, shall I sell it ? or just leave it to adorn something pretty in my bedroom ?

All the flowers are hand made by myself from silk, organza, lace, crepe or wedding material.
I have done the colours in white, silver grey and a slate grey. Every flower has a diamante gem in the centre.  The holder has been covered with white lace and the underside of the bouquet has been decorated to match.  Hope you like it.  thanks for taking a peep , xxxx

20th August, 2018 A quick birthday card

Hi, Just returned from a short break which was really lovely. I had a birthday card to make for a little boy, not much time as his birthday is tomorrow. This is what I came up with.

                 I used a Mama Elephant stamp and combo die set.

I used Copics to colour the image.

Sorry, but since I got home my laptop has a mind of it's own....

Thank you for taking a peep xx

6th August, 2018 Thinking of Christmas.

Hi, All of us crafters start thinking of doing Christmas things in July and August. Myself being no option, I have started mine.  I have done a pretty white on white card topper with a super sparkly poinsettia flower.

The gem in the centre is taken from a strip of diamantes .

Off on my holidays now for a well earned break, take care xxx
