Xmas Tree

I bought this tree blank from Ally Pally. Covered it in Daisy D paper & rubons and a handful of primas.
I really like it...

Scrapaholics


I have been running a scrapaholics club in Bromley (look here) for a few months now and its going really well. I am also on the Design team which is very exciting....here i sthe DT layout for January which uses Bazzill Stitch templates (I had never heard of these before!!)

Bo Bunny Kit


The next challenge for Gottacraft was to make up some layouts using her Bo Bunny kit. Also, to make up cards using the "leftovers". I loved these papers....



Clipboard

Another project made for Gottacraft...I had jigsaw pieces to use so I included some on the clipboard. The post it memo pad is one of 4 from the good old pound shop!!

Key Ring

A few week ago the lovely Sandra at Gottacraft asked me to be part of her new Design team which of course I said yes to straight away!! My first kit included some altered projects to make up......

...a blank key ring. Gottacraft is hoping to start selling "Altered Art" kits on her site...so watch her space here

Anyway....this was my first task and I think its quite cute....


December ATC Swap

Here is my ATC for this months Stitched theme. I used gold thread and a running stitch over a stamped flower image. A bit of glitter but you cant see that!! Hope whoever gets them likes em!!

Jam ATC Swap



Fisrt time I have ever done a collaborative ATC....bit worried about it initially as to how much to leave enough room for the next person to add something. Anyway, this is the end result from 2 of my original backgrounds.

The pink one was alcohol inks on a silver metallic card. Dansmum stamped it, embossed it, sakura glazed it, added gems & star. Chicken Licken completed it with ribbon& fibres. The end result is great

The autumnal one was a brayered background. Dansmum stamped, added rafia and he title.Chicken Licken add the fibres and burnished leaves. The end result is lovely too

Thanks ladies xx

My Circle Journey using one stamp only. I bought the heart stamp specifically. The cover is painted with dabbers, bit of utee and I have stamped the image onto acetate.

(I have subsequently bound it properly and tied ribbons on)

For my entry inside (no you cant see it yet!!) I was going to use it as a "body" but then changed my mind and did something else using a soldering tool....you will have to wait and see!! LOL

Choosing a stamp was hard...I hope you are able to come up with something different each time...

A team challenge to alter something so I altered a monogram "P" which I'd bought at Ally Pally last weekend....dabbers, stamped with script and a swirl, image torm from patterened paper, utee and a bloom....to be hung in my craft room (whn its decorated and I can move back in!!)
