Taggies..

Hey all! 

Today I tried something a little different for me, I tried making tags. Well art tags anyways. I've been looking at a few on Pinterest and was inspired. Here are a few I made. 

This is a beautiful design, I'm very proud of this. Of corse my bigshot took most of the action here, but I love the colours my ink made too. I hope my sister will like this one!

I'm in love with Graphic 45 papers! I got this little kit with a magazine recently and I've decided to buy a few more soon! The vintage theme is defiantly me ATM.

Again my bigshot and embossing folders took place here. I then rubbed ink over the embossed areas. I think it shows the design well.

Another cutely vintage tag here. I have no idea what I will use this for but it needs a beautiful present I think! 

Another bigshot taggie, I'm really liking making bold tags. They seem to jump at me.

I'm glad you want to read today,

It's been a while....

Hey all! 

Don't worry I haven't forgotten about you! I've been a bit unwell and not sleeping so I've took some time to get better and relax. But now I'm back and ready to make! 

Just a quick post from me today showing you the little amount of items made this week.

These little beauties are ready to send to my two penpals (one English, one German) and after seeing their reaction to them, I think I will make more. These are simply made using my off cuts of card stock and embelishments. Created using an envelope stamp. 

This is my random makes using polymer clay. I got a few items for Christmas and decided to try a few Pinterest tutorials out. I must admit I didn't think any of these would work so I'm so happy they did. I just need to sand down and glaze over. Watch out for finished makes soon.

Thank for reading today!

The Shabby Tea Room Entry #201

Hey everyone! 

It's that time again, I love doing these Shabby Tea Room entries! This weeks competition was a little different for me, we had a sketch to use and not a picture! But me being me, I had to turn my card pretty pink! 

Here's the sketch we were given:

3D project-Part 2

Hey everyone! 

I finished my book! I love how it turned out and it's got pride of place on my window sill (needs to be on a shelf really but all my shelves are full!). Here are the pages, all created from the Docrafts Creativity magazine and tutorial. 

I hope you all loved this book as much as I do! You may see more 3D projects!

Project notebook: 3D work

Hey all! 

Gosh it's been a busy couple of days for me! I've had days doing nothing and days doing everything under the sun! However today I'm here to tell you about a little 3D project I started! I've never done 3D work before so at the moment I'm rather proud! 

In the latest Docrafts Creativity magazine there is a project featuring the new Madame Payraud collection. Now I loved this collection and got a few pieces in my latest Docrafts goody bag. So I took to my stash and created the book. So far I have the cover and spine. 

I hope you enjoyed my first 3D project post. More will follow with pictures of the inside.

Pictures do the talking

Hey everyone! 

I've had such a busy day crafting! I've made a quilt and 3 cards! I've also started a new card and come down stairs while it's drying with purple hands! The ink will not come off. Any tips and tricks? 

Here's the pictures from today everyone! Thanks for reading.

This last card was a challenge! The layout was featured in a magazine but I wanted to add my own twist and used a circle design instead of oval. To add the aged look to the doily, I used purple spectrum noir pens on the outside. 

I hope you liked my items today!

The Shabby Tea Room entry #200

Hey everyone! 

It's that time of the week again, the time where I show you my shabby tea room entry. This week I found it really hard even though it was all my style! We were given this photo.

We were told to add roses too and unfortunately for me, I had no red roses left! So I decided to make my roses a little less ominant and used them as my background. Here is my entry this week.

I'm so proud of myself for making this poise today! I used a tiny flower die and cut it 5 times. I sanded each flower, then held them all with pink brad.

Wish me luck everyone!
