Birdcage

I had such fun creating this using a lid, grunge board & lots of butterflies I either cut out or die cut.  Have requests  so will be creating more shortly.  My idea was to create a rusty looking cage with the butterflies helping the bird to escape and yes I possibly love this so much because of my love of butterflies.  It was for a swap - birdcage with a butterfly.

Christmas card order

Every time I create cards I get new favourites to the extent that I love them all for different reasons.  

Having fun creating a card.

Card required was a thinking of you Grandad & he enjoys fishing.   Decided to have some fun & document the process.

 Here was my starting point was

 unsure what I would use.

 Paper sprayed with water and

colours chosen placed down.

 The first swipe though.  Not finished 

yet so got the heat gun out to dry it.

 Second swipe through looking better.

 Finally I added some brushed pewter

highlights.  Do you see what I see?  

Could not have created that if I tried.

Love happy accidents :)

 Distressed the edges of the red card

and inked around everything.

 Tags I decided need to be held together 

with a brad - red of course.

 No card is complete without an inside.

Or the sticker on the back.

Completed card including envelope.

I decided to have the colour on the

outside this time & put a sticker on

for the address.  Hope you enjoyed 

seeing this as much as I did making it :)

3 new cards

 Used fab colour, age, initial & love of cooking

These last two were shoes/ handbags.

Enjoyed colouring the last one in.

Finally I'm starting to understand how

to use the water brush :)

Birthday necklace

This was such fun to create & I'm sure will be much loved.

Requirements: Birthday necklace to wear to school loves pink & purple & butterflies + add name & age.

 The back

 Decided it needed a box

Now I shall add some pretty tissue paper to finish it off

And a pretty ribbon to.

30th birthday card

A card I made this morning.  Its

a similar theme I have used before. 

They always look different with the 

colours, age, decorations & loved that

this time I found a balloon or the 0.
