Oh no!

Eeek! its been nearly two months since i last came on here I'm really not doing very well with it am i! Well i finally had my laptop fixed which had been broken for ages so i should (fingers crossed) be updating a little more. Iv got a couple of items to post that i have made lately so here goes.



This card i made for one of my directors at work who is tomorrow leaving to have her second child. I brought the DCWV Hippy Chick stack a couple of weeks ago and just haven't gotten around to using it so i thought this would be the perfect opportunity. I used a plain white ready made card and layered it with some dark blue paper, i used some orange card stock from stampin up which i punched with a fiskars punch and a patterned paper from the paper stack, i rounded the corners on each piece or card before assembling and adding a green ribbon.




The stamp i used i purchased off ebay and coloured in using my pro markers, i also stamped a best wishes sentiment. I added three light green bling which i had free with a magazine just because the corner looked a little bare with nothing there.


The bigger flower was a papermania fabric flower i brought in a pack and the small flower was free in a pack with a magazine i brought and i attached these together with a light green papermania brad.

I was really pleased with the way this card turned out and my director loved the card as did all my colleagues :D


These are the presents i made for Isabelle's teachers when she left reception, i brought the pots from Hobbycraft and filled them with Haribo Starmix (was very good and didn't eat any considering these are my all time favourite sweets!) i then added a strip of paper inside which i punched with a fiskars punch and added some ribbon to one side of the handle. I then went onto make small tags from my bags, tags and more cricut cartridge and added a handmade handbag charm onto each.

These are the charms that i attached to the pots of sweets, i used a selection of beads, chain and butterfly charms, everything for these except the sweets were purchased from Hobbycraft.


Thanks for stopping by and i will so try to keep posting!!!
