Summer Fun ...


is the challenge at 
this week so I decided to make my very first
mini suitcase on my Silhouette.
I must say I am really pleased with how this one turned out, think I might need to keep it!

Summer holidays was my thinking, taking photographs, the weather, eating ice cream
and sending postcards home.

The Eifel Tower & heart tag are from the Doohickey Club Vol 3
The suitcase, sun, post mark, matting & layering were all cut on the Silhouette.
& postcard stamp.
Completely hand stitched & coloured with Promarkers.

The papers are of course from NITWIT COLLECTIONS

FQB - Romance & Roses Collection

Tool Delight ...


I have an exploding box to share today, no stamps or designer papers for this one, plenty of pictures!
All elements have been cut on the Silhouette, using a variety of shapes and the plug
I created myself.  All wording as been computer generated and printed onto Safmat
to replicate a well know brand of tools!


I have used some tape measure ribbon, silver mirri embossed & hand stitched.


Raided my Husbands tool box for the raw plugs, washer, screws & fuse!
I quilled the pencil and replicated a post it note for the message.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges -
4 Crafty Chicks - Fathers Day (I Won Top 5)!

Hopping Happy ...


Today I want to share a spiral card, this time using these gorgeous hopping bunnies.


I love the surprise when these cards are opened, I have made a bee one, airplanes & butterflies.
I think these bunnies work really well & of course some chocolate eggs too!

I have used flowers, ribbon, doily, charm & rafia.
Coloured with Promarkers, hand stitched as always.
The acetate spiral & matting & layering were completed on my Silhouette.

The sentiment was stamped onto Safmat for the invisible look.

The gorgeous papers are from NITWIT COLLECTIONS
