Mothers Day Card


Unfortunately this card hasn't scanned too well so will look better if you click on it and view close up I think! The background is done with the "direct to paper"technique in shades of pink & green then over-stamped with versamark & heat-embossed with white. The butterflies were stamped on rainbow paper then embossed in white, the upper wings decoupaged and decorated with 3D paint and glitter glue.

Card


This card is for a friend of my daughter who has just taken over as landlord of the pub.

Altered book



Ok - here are the beginnings of my altered book. I think because it is done by me , for me I don't have to follow any rules so can just go with the flow.
The front & back cover is a K&Co paper, the scrolls hand drawn with glue pen & flocked.The frame is chipboard covered with gold
utee & stamped, the picture a rub-on over black utee.The heart is stamped and embossed.
Below are the first 2 pages - I may do more to them later.....or not, who knows?!

Metal notebook cover


This little notebook has a cover made from thin sheet metal in gold which has been stamped & heat embossed with verdigris embossing powder. The centre embellishment is made from shrink plastic which has been coloured & distressed then stamped into whist still hot & a green gem in the centre.
This is my entry for the Lots to Do Weekly Challenge.

Keyring


This kcould be a key ring or handbag charm - I used white shrink plastic (which has been lurking in the craft box for a long time waiting for inspiration!) used an Anna Griffin stamp & Jumbo Java & Pixie Dust Versamagic ink to colour , punched the holes then shrank it down, then added the metal tag & rings.

Pennants


Pennant swap hosted by Monalisa on Lots to Do. The theme was "distressed" I used papers from Cosmo Cricket & some chipboard embellishments.


Recipe swap



Recipe swap hosted by AngC on Lots to Do - recipe was 1 button, 2 suares 1 image and green somewhere on 1 atc, 1 skinny & 1 arch.

Fabric bookmark


Fabric bookmark - the base fabric is a scrap of khaki linen which I have stamped & embossed in candy turquoise & gold then added the stamped image, also edged in gold & added the ribbon. The inner of the bookmark is thin mountboard but I would probably use fabric interlining or paper in future as it is a bit too chunky.
