Through the window

 
This card was made using a window die by Memory Box, I love the simplicity of using dies cuts to create a design. I mostly cut out the shapes in white cardstock and colour with markers when I know what I need.

A Rose for a Rose


Sharing a stitched  Rose design on a lace background. Colour was added by cutting petal shapes from sheer fabrics and applying to the design. Couching and Cretan Stitch complete the embroidery.

What's on your workdesk Wednesday? 210


This week I am showing a messy desk as I have had so many comments on my tidiness, I thought you might like to see the dark side!



I was covering some round boxes which I am going to use as staging for a display, but I wanted them to have a more Shabby Chic look.

 
I also made some 'trees', they are going to be covered with sweets as a treat for the children!
 

 
I had some lovely suggestions for what to do with my printers tray, I am now well away with the design. I can't wait to finish it and share.
 
Have a great week!

More lanterns......

I made a few lantern decorations, there was a great template on Craft Artist so I digitally filled it with the backing papers, printed and assembled. I think they worked out very well.

A card for Father's Day

A card I made today ready for Father's Day. I used a Gelli print background and added a map detail rub on. Some chipboard letters and a little stamping completed the design.

Baby Bunting

I just love making baby bunting out of Washi Tape and thread! 1p for scale.
