ANYTHING GOES

It is time for another challenge over at Let's Craft & Create.  This fortnight the challenge is "ANYTHING GOES".



Today I would like to share a gift box I made for my friend who graduated last month.  The template is one of creationsbyar.  The numbers are My Favourite Things dies.  I enlarged the tempate so I was able to put the wee gift I bought for her which is a stunning purse mirror of Tasmin Cooper, a very talented New Zealand designer.

Engagement Card

My second post for today is an engagement card I have made for our neighbours that recently got engaged.  I have used two spellbinder heart border square dies and an image from the Forever Friends Triple Disc CD-Rom set.  I have finished the card by adding glossy accents to some of the hearts on the image and attaching some pretty roses.  The sentiment is computer generated.








BIRTHDAY CARD

Today I would like to share with you a card I made for a wee boy in my sons class who had a birthday party last weekend.

I have coloured the rocket and stars digitally with photoshop.  The round sentiment is computer generated and I have added glossy accents to the number and used 3d foam to adhere to card.

SPECIAL OCCASION

The fortnightly challenge over at LET'S CRAFT & CREATE is a Special Occasion.  As it is Mother's Day here in New Zealand on the 13th May I have made this card for my Mother in-law.

I came across these lovely images and template at FRED SHE SAID.  Not sure if you can see but I have pierced a pattern onto the card.  I have added a butterfly using a Martha Stewart hand punch. The daffodil flower head is layered using 3d foam squares.



Thanks for taking the time to check out my blog and if you do have time check out our fortnightly challenge.

ZIPPER BROOCH

Today I would like to share with you a brooch I have made using a zip out of my husbands overalls.(Don't worry they were heading for the rag bin).I have wanted to make one of these for a while now.  I was browsing the web yesterday and came across this fabulous tutorial on You Tube.  So I thought I would give it a go.


For my first attempt I am quite happy with the results.
