daughter in laws 40th in april

I cannot believe I have not posted anything since December 2012  this selection of cards are for my daughter in law who is 40 in April 2013 they are all different styles and layouts The one on the rocker style has a feature back and font I love doing these. one is done with some of my new sizzex dies with her B for her name and 40 0n the butterfly's wings. the front one is very plain but I think it is lovely done in white/ silver and glitter butterflies and lastly the brown and orange butterfly's so I hope they give her as much pleasure I had making them for her.

2 styles 1 card

 This card is similar to the silver wedding one below, I saw the original and have it on my face book
This is in my stock of cards  and if you like it i can send it to you. as you can see I have also decorated the back so if it was sitting in a window It would look good from outside

silver wedding card for friends

Just recently and I made this card from a card I saw on pinterest. Great site for inspiration

 Dear friends Julia and Stephen up in Dufftown celebrated there Silver wedding .
They are a lovely family and we have been friends with them for many years Jack and Megan are a credit to them both in their manners and the kindness they show to others.

I enjoyed making this as it was for them all.

 I have a love  of shoes as my granddaughter's have as well i made this on an old CD and matted and layered in a lovely plain lilac card

have put ribbon to hold it on a hook or drawer handle in Kaitlyne's bedroom I just have to add other ribbons on it for show. I hope she likes it

Finished felt brooches with extra long beaded hat pins

 completed brooches from stash and the small bottom row are single flowers with small pins with beads

 I have put multiple beaded pins on some of them and they all have a brooch pin on them which can be closed off

 There are several spare long pins for future use,

brooches made from stash

Last Saturday Rena and I went to see SPEY FEST crafts show and while going from stall to stall I saw loads of Hat Pin Brooches. I had these felt flowers in a prize i had won for a competition. Sew here are some of my finished ones. Goodness knows what i will do them but they were fun to make.
will post another photo when all completed.

re vamp of a HEART box

This little heart box started off life as box with Gluten free Truffles, my friend Rena bought them they were very very tasty. I have been going through my stash & we all know how things stack up. Now I have a lovely little box.  This would go really well with Bab's and Paul's bedroom but box might be too small.
It might get used for storing small earrings or even get sweets in it for someone

MY TO DO LIST squiggles competition

I have a really bad memory these days its an age thing, and need to write everything down so my to do list is at the back door so we jot down reminders, It so happens that I have put it on SQUIGGLES HOME DECOR

Five Part Name Card inspiration crafters companion

 Crafters Companion was the inspiration for this 21st birthday card for our neighbour Karen

 she is a lover of donkeys hence the cover. Each letter has 21 on the back . I have decorated each individual

 section with delicate silver stickers ,not too many. Keep it minimal.

this was the first part of this type of card and I think I will try downsizing to make a smaller version of it.
this has taken hours and hours and i hope she likes it.  Watch this space!
