Cutie creatures!






Decided to play today! But set myself a little challenge, to make cards QUICKLY!!! Something I can not normally do, because I cant stop myself getting carried away! But it was so nice to just sit down and do some quick makes for a change, really enjoyed it! Here is what I made, I borrowed these little Stampin Up cuties from my dear friend Sue, they will be returning home to her later, but I have been told then can come stay with me anytime they like! Yay!!!! What gorgeous stamps they are! Heartmelters! Tfl xx

Thursdays Paperplay


Another week! Where are the weeks going to! This weeks challenge was set by Elisa,

"Credit Crunch:

Only use the basics in materials and tools: cardstock, scissors, pen, ink, needle & thread and glue - plus anything you can find around the house (excluding the craft room!) like tin foil, wrapping paper and potatoes (to make potato prints)."

This is what I came up with, the card base, is from shapes I had already cut using plain cardstock with my label nesties (bit of recycling)a while back, paper is from a book I didnt read and had lying around, lace is from the bottom of one of my vests, buttons are from baby clothes belong to my daughter, I also used a champangne cork as a stamp to stamp the edges of my labels, lettering is done on the roll from the kitchen roll and the stitching is done using some thread I had in my sewing kit! I was amazed at what I could come up with using NO CRAFTY stash whatsoever! Thanks for a great challenge Elisa! Oh yeah the twine is from the kitchen, had that left over from buying garden furniture last summer!
