ANYTHING BUT A CARD

ANYTHING BUT A CARD is the challenge over at Let's Craft & Create this fortnight.  I love these types of challenges as it gives me a chance to show you other crafts I like to do.

I made this crochet teddy bear named Gracie.  She is made out of 4ply cotton and sits 3 1/2 inches tall.  I had alot of fun making her and hope to make more.

Take some time out of your busy day, make a cuppa and go on over to Let's Craft & Create and see the rest of the inspiration the design team have for you.  If you feel inspired join in the fun.

STAMP IT

This fortnights challenge over at LET'S CRAFT & CREATE is titled "STAMP IT".  For this challenge we would like to see a stamp on your project whether it be inked or digi.

I would like to share with you a card I made for a lovely lady in our community who turned 95.

I have used paper and digi stamps from Fred She Said.

Go on over and check out our new challenge and see what the rest of the design team have made.

Enter and you may be the lucky winner of a lovely wee gift.

MAKE IT PRETTY

I can't believe how fast the months are going bye.  Another fortnight has passed and it is time for our next challenge over at LET'S CRAFT & CREATE.  The theme this fortnight is MAKE IT PRETTY.  We would like to see you use something to make your card or project look pretty.

I have made a teacup pin cushion and have made some pretty pins to finish it off.  The pin cushion can come on and off the teacup so you can get to all your bits and bobs.

Come on over and join in the fun and check out the other design teams pretty projects.


See you all soon.

SCRAP BUSTER

Are you the type of crafter that just can't throw out those tiny pieces of scraps whether it be paper, fabric, yarn or whatever, knowing that they may just come in useful ? Well, now's your chance to use them!  Our latest challenge is at Let's Craft and Create is Scrap Buster.


For this challenge I have made some bookmarks using some scraps of material and cotton thread I had stored away waiting to be used.

Go on over to Let's Craft & Create and check out the rest of the design team inspiration and join in the fun.

DECOUPAGE

This fortnights challenge over at Let's Craft and Create is a project using any form of Decoupage.  I thought I would bring a little bit of KIWIANA to this challenge and I have made a set of three serviette art canvases.

Take sometime out of your busy lives and check out the other Design Team members projects. Make a project of your own and join in the fun.

Thanks for stopping by.

CROCHET BEANIE

I have recently picked up my crochet hook again and decided to make myself a beanie for the cold Saturday mornings I watch my two boys play rugby.

I am a beginner crocheter, pretty much self taught.  I have used 8ply yarn and a 4.5mm hook.

Hope you like.

I have more crochet items to post shortly.

Thanks for stopping by.

SYMPATHY

Today I would like to share with you a quick and easy sympathy card I made.

The embossing folder is a Stampin Up Sizzix brand called Elegant Bouquet and the butterfly punch is a Martha Stewart.

Thanks for stopping by.
