Happy Anniversary

Morning and I am delighted to be a Guest Designer at Creative Creases. oooh Friday the 13th!!!

I made a shaped anniversary card and sorry cannot share a link as it was on old computer!


UPDATE---found a link -5"x7" Triangle Accordion card


The papers are oddments from The Works and Watercolour Flowers from Scrap and Me, the love sentiment and little bird were cut from other paper oddments, the digi image in the pocket was found already coloured with promarkers when I decluttered but not entirely happy with it tbh-the happy anniversary is a Tonic die.


I would also like to say a big thank you for everyone who left a very encouraging comment on Helens art she was definitely over whelmed and appreciated every one-so thank you. x

Beautiful Sunflowers

  Morning  and those of you that follow me on FB know my daughter Helen draws and paints to help occupy her mind and help with her anxiety and mental health-I always show her work on FB but have decided to make a page for her art on here too-they are all drawn free hand and using coloured pencils, watercolours or graphite pencils. She gets her inspiration from Pinterest, but when I saw the Sunflower challenge at Double D I decided to show the latest one she finished yesterday.

The sunflowers were drawn freehand in pencil then water coloured, the little Bees were stamped -with I think a Chocolate Baroque stamp to hide a couple of marks she made on the paper and saved it from the bin! She has given a few away but this one is definitely going to be framed and on the wall. Size-11 and a half inches x 8and a half inches.

Sprinkled With Love

 Morning and 1st September and I have two DT posts today- the first one is for ATG+Stamping  challenge at Scrapping4fun and I got carried away and made a set of three cards using the p, paper I wasn't keen on(it's growing on me lol) P apers are from Creative World of Crafts, sentiment and stamped image are from a Rare Earth set I won a couple of months ago. 

I stamped the image onto white cardstock then onto P. paper and paper pieced the cup and saucer and the topper coloured with promarkers. The die-cut frames sets are on magnetic sheets-I remember the square ones are from The Works but no idea of the circle ones! I also meant to sprinkle some sparkle-BUT forgot -will add before cards go wherever.
