Everything is covered with splatters and flicks of watered purple Faber Castel Gelato. Finished with  the sentiment "Have a fine day"

Happy Birthday

Hello Everyone!

 I was asked to make a 50th male  Birthday card. and this is what I came up with.

He likes blue and music.

I found this Twiddlybitz chipboard guitar in my stash, it worked perfectly. I inked it black and using single strands of gold embroidery thread I stitched on the strings.

I  added a clear piece of music notes and stitched it on with  thread.

 I made a music envelope to put it in.

I was really happy with how it turned out..

Thanks for stopping by and for your lovely comments.

More Than Words Challenges

My October DT Reveal

"beauty, memories, love"

Hello to all my Scrappy friends!

Here is my Design Team reveal for the October More Than Words Challenge.

"beauty, memories, love"

Sarah's wedding dress was layered with fine, delicate and intricate lacework.

The straps were made by sewing a few pieces of the delicate lacework together, thanks to a very clever dressmaker. The dress was gorgeous, as was the bride. The chipboard pieces resemble the very delicate gypsophila, baby's breath, which the girls wore in their hair and had in their bouquets. I have added pieces of the lacework to my background and added a fabric bloom.

  The word challenge this month is "Delicate"

and the creative challenge is "Fabric"

"Leather or lace, satin or silk"

 A close up of the lace piece, Dusty Attic Chipboard pieces,  Kaisercraft blooms, and rosebuds.

 Showing on old Prima fabric bloom and lace.

Look here  to be inspired by the incredibly talented Design Teams creations.

Again this month I have stash busted and created my layout on an old 7 Dots piece of paper given to me by the lovely Lindy Gillespie. I really miss seeing her gorgeous work. The fabric Prima bloom is also very old. The chipboard is all gorgeous Dusty Attic  pieces,which I was lucky enough to win recently. 

I hope you find time to join in this month and share with us.

Thank you for stopping by and for taking the time to leave a kind comment. 

Each one is read and much appreciated

 Kraft+
My October Design Team Reveal

Hello and welcome to my Scrappy Friends.

Today I am sharing the October Kraft+ Challenge, and it a fun one!

I can see clearly now

My Design Team Tags.

I loved this challenge....creating something different was such fun.

Stash busting again.... I found so many clear things in my stash that I had completely forgotten about.

  My motto...making old new again

My clear elements- some very old Hambly Transparencies,  a piece of Vellum which I embossed using my cuttlebug and some Heidi Swapp clear embellishments -butterfly, words, arrow & hearts.

 I have also added some beautiful  2Crafty Chipboard Feathers, which I coloured using some Gelato, some old  prima blooms, pieces of  twine, a Cricut Kraft doily and different washi tapes.

Check out the Design Teams inspiration here.

I would really love to see  you play along and show us how you interpret this challenge.

You can share your project on the Kraft+ Facebook page

BUT remember you MUST link your project to the Kraft+ blog
