Crafty afternoon

Well to distract myself while my baby was at her first playgroup session I indulged in a craft session. I had another play with my Funky Hand paper blossom papers and made a couple more cards.


I used paper blossom papers, buttons, large bloom, ribbon, Heidi Grace rub ons and paper blossom alphabet to make the word "friends"













For this one I also used paper blossom papers and alphabet. Again I used buttons, glitter glue and a swirl stamp.

Another card & matching bookmark

I enjoyed making the challenge one so much that I made another! This was for my good friend Lydia's birthday.


Again I used Pinkie Pops papers, doodling and the my friend stamp, but I also used some new stamps - Mindy's flowers by Autumn Leaves. I lurve them! Have used watercolour pencils to colour them in and also added some sparkle with glitter glue.

DCM challenge - pins & needles

I bought the latest download from Funky Hand today. What delicious papers they are! You can find them here. I used them when making this weeks DCM challenge "pins & needles" - design a card using pins or needles of some sort.

















I made a brown square card blank & covered with one of the papers from paper blossom at Funky Hand. I then cut a strip of stripy paper (again paper blossom) and adhered it 2 thirds of the way down the card. I stamped Lola (Sugar Nellie) onto white card and coloured her with watercolour pencils, then partially cut her out and mounted her on more paper (paper blossom again) and then onto brown card. I doodled stitches around Lola. Next I cut out one of the patterned flowers and a "Happy Birthday" sentiment and mounted lower right. I edged the flower with glitter glue and attached some DCWV ribbon with a safety pin to the lower right of the card. Lastly a velvet Prima flower and jewel brad in the top right corner.

Funky Fairy Challenge 14 - set by me!

I thought long and hard about this one and decided on.........

LONG TALL SALLY

Make something tall and skinny (like I want to look). It can be anything you like as long as it is long and slim.

I made a card and matching bookmark
















I used pinkie pops papers, Hampton Arts stamp, a cheapo 99p "my friend" stamp, prima flowers, tiny gems, doodling, doodlebug paper frills, a Lakeland bloom, glitter glue.ribbon and a brad.
