VINTAGE SHABBY/ CHIC SOAP BOX

Hi everyone,

Another quick posting from me.  Tonight I have something a bit different to a card to share.  This is a cross between a box and a soap wrapper.  The bar of soap was to be a small raffle prize at a function Mum was organising so I titivated it up a bit to make it more interesting.

The gorgeous image was from Magic Moonlight and all items were very much from my stash.



I would like to enter this into the challenge at Sugar Creek Hollow
where the theme is 'Tags/Boxes

Thanks for looking

CHRISTMAS INSPIRATION AT LIVE AND LOVE CRAFTS


Hi everyone,

I am here tonight to share a card I made for the monthly Challenge at Live and Love Crafts where there is a Christmas Inspiration Collage to inspire.



Well, there was so much inspiration here, I spotted hearts and stars in several places so I included the lovely hearts and stars  from Live and Love Crafts.  The base is embossed  but it is mainly covered with embellishments so is not easy to see.  The Rosette Ribbon, feathers, flowers, Melissa Francis pleated ribbon and of courser the Frantage were also from Live and Love Crafts.  I warned Hubby and our dog to keep out of the way whilst I was doing this or they could well have got Frantaged!  It seemed to be getting everywhere!

The lovely image is from Crafty Individuals, I thought it was so apt having the clock as the main feature along with the cups and saucers.

Everything else has come from my stash.  I must say though I put my heart and soul into this card and just loved making it.   I am really in my element making Shabby Chic cards.  (Or perhaps you had guessed!)


And of course I would like to enter it into the Challenge at Live and Love Crafts

Thanks for looking,

TAG YOU'RE IT at CHEERY LYNN

Hi everyone,

I am here tonight with a very quick posting of a Festive Tag Card to share which I made for the Challenge at Cheery Lynn  

I actually loved making this, I made the shape up myself but I am sure it will have been done many times before.  You will see I have used multiple dies from Cheery Lynn, including the hand-made Flowers and leaves.  The inside is decorated too as can be seen on the photograph below.  It is finished off with machine stitching.






I would like to enter this into the Challenge at Cheery Lynn

Thanks for looking and happy weekend to you all,
