Good evening everyone, here I am with my DT project from Sarah Hurley Challenges where our theme is 'Bonfire Brights' I used Sarahs papers and a sentiment from Fairyland digi kit, paired these with a photo of some fireworks I took over the sea near where I live, glitter card, american crafts glitter ribbon and gold stars.

Hey everyone, hope you are well! I am here with my DT project for our 'Anything Goes with Ribbon' challenge over at Crafty Ribbons. I made some cotton napkins for christmas decorated using Crafty Ribbons Christmas Owl's collection here. Its a really good way to simply and cheaply create a theme to find some ribbons and adorn something plain like a napkin!

Good evening everyone, hope you are well :-) I am here with a project I had an idea for a little while ago but hadn't got round to playing with until recently :-) I bought a box frame which I lined with cork that I bought on a roll from Joanna Sheen. I then moulded paper butterflies from SEI with my fingers into a realistic position and varnished them with Modge Podge to keep them in that shape. Once these were dry I found some pretty pins and placed them in my box frame like an old fashioned butterfly display. I was really pleased when I shared this with my friends someone actually asked if they were real butterflies-it really made me smile!
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well! I am here to show you one of my Christmas gift ideas using Crafty Ribbons 'Christmas Owl' collection paired with some felt and cotton, and some dried lavender. They are simple (and cheap!) to make and smell divine! I chose cotton and felt to colour match the ribbons I used and cut these into squares. This is a particularly good project for making use of fabric offcuts you may have in your stash. I chose Papermania 'Festive' fabrics as these go really well with the ribbons. I started by sewing my ribbon on the front panel of my pouches with the sewing machine with a simple straight stitch. Next I placed the front panel wrong side against the felt and sewed with zigzag stitch around the pouches leaving a small gap at the top to pull the pouches right way out. Make sure you poke the corners out with a pen or your finger. Then I filled with dried lavender and hand stitched the opening closed.
I hope you like them!

Hey everyone, hope you are well :-) I am here with a cheerful card to counteract the miserable weather! I used a gorgeous Wild Rose Studio stamp which I coloured with Promarkers, then cut round this with a nestie. I used My Minds Eye papers, coredinations cardstock, which I cut a border in with a Memory box die and arranged papers as a border. I added Tri Stripe ribbons from Crafty Ribbons which complimented the papers. I added a butterfly and a greeting on each corner.

Hello everyone, hope you are well! I am here with my mid challenge inspiration project for A Little Bit Crafty 'A Little Bit Shabby' challenge :-) For this project I used a Dovecraft collection for my papers and wooden tea cup embellishment, an Alice in Wonderland image from Sarah Hurley, lace, doilies, inks and a dome greeting. I inked my doilies to match the colours in the papers, lace and card I used, then die cut a scalloped mat for my image. I used the tea cup as a mount for my sentiment.

Good morning everyone! Its my turn to choose the challenge theme this week at Crafty Ribbons so of course I chose Butterflies! :-) I decided to make a canvas with the photos of butterflies I have taken this year :-) I printed the photos onto canvas printed paper in various sizes. I used a blank white canvas as my backdrop, the photos being printed on canvas gives the proper texture for this. I added a border of blue gingham ribbon in the centre and arranged my photos on the canvas. The ribbon comes from the Blueberry Jam Pot bundle of ribbons from Crafty Ribbons here.

Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well :-) I am here with a card using some new stampin' up stash I adore! I began with a panel of white stamping card as my focal piece. I cut a butterfly out of the middle of this with my stampin' up punch which matches the Papillon set I used for my butterfly stamp. I then stamped a butterfly on either side of the negative space left by punching out the butterfly. Above the butterfly shaped hole I stamped 'Thinking of you'. Next I added a panel of paper, placed to show the pattern through the hole in as close to symmetrical as I could manage-like real butterflies!
I then mounted this panel on stampin' up coredinations card. I covered my card blank in coordinating paper mounted onto coredinations card, then placed my focal panel and matching ribbon.
