Initially...


Well, I have been having a busy craft day...
1. It started with doing some ceramic painting with my little boy
2. then I used some off cuts to produce another card
3.then I had a bash at doing the Embers challenge, using my initial on a card (the size of an atc) which i decided I would stick on a plain white card and use as a birthday card for a little girl called Elsie
4.which then reminded me I needed to make another little friends card- called Carys...
5. I snuck in a card I made yesterday for a lady where I used to work who was leaving, went out for a meal and forgot to take the card! argh! so it's now in the post...

Paisley Patterns

This card was for Di's latest Challenge, stamped the centre with a single paisley stamp, and duplicated it in a circle, then I used a cirlce cutter to cut the rough shape of a circle and punched the edges to get the pattern- don't look too closely there are flaws!!! I added a prima flower and eyelet to finish!


As I had the papers, stamps and inks to hand I decided to create this next card for the DCM midweek challenge, to make a get well soon style card, so here is the outcome...

Puzzled


Enjoy taking on a challenge? Enjoy creating something from almost nothing?... Well this could be a small project you might like to embark on! (emphasis on the word small) I have acquired some blacnk puzzles with the view to decorate, this is where your help comes in. I want to set a the theme of 'Colour', I will send you a piece of the jigsaw puzzle for you to decorate- however you want, 2 STRICT RULES: 1. That the shape of the puzzle is not altered in anyway, because I want to put it back together! 2. Use only one colour on the piece. So any takers??? i might put a time limit on it, but for now it is open. If I dont hear from anyone, I will start nagging!!! The puzzle pieces are approx 1" x 1 1/2" only 12 pieces avialble, I will decorate the frame... so the first 12 people to leave a comment...!
