Final GDT

Good Morning All

Final spot as GDT for Shopping Our Stash for March.

We had to make a stepper card for this one.

I have not done one of these for ages!!

I set about with a Dufex decoupage set, matted onto corrugated card bought in local Spanish Papel shop.

Back home now and settling back into my craft room with a load of LOTV toppers to play with.
Meeting up with my two crafty friends this afternoon too, lots to catch up on.

GDT No. 3

Good Morning All

Shopping our Stash Challenge is Forest Friends this week.

So as a guest DT, I made this sweet card.

LOTV Topper from a pad I think

Some negative die cuts.

Homemade sentiment tags

I think the paper is from Docrafts but thought it suitable as it has blackberries on and you find those in the forest along with the rabbit and wild flowers.

Flying to UK this morning to surprise my Mum.

She was feeling abit down in the dumps afew weeks ago, in alot of pain with her shoulder and hip, so my John said if I could get reasonable flights, why not go and cheer her up.

So I did and I am. !!!!

Good Morning All

Welcome to my latest followers, I can't see that you have blogs for me to visit you but let me know if you do.
I hope you enjoy your crafty visits and get some inspiration.

I have been asked to be a Guest Designer for Shopping Our Stash Challenge blog for the month of March.

What an honour.

It is a weekly challenge and  the first one is

All It's Cracked up to Be.

(Use Crackle Paint)

As I dont have any I used Crackle effect decoupage paper and I made this for a swap too and that theme was Alter a CD.

This is the Cd once I had covered it.

I used a vintage photo and cut it with a Nellie Snellen heart die.

Added lace and flowers and a lovely paper bow from another swap. 

I wanted to make it into something more than just a decorated CD

so I punched holes in the bottom of it with my Cropodial, attached some metal rings to hang a 

12 x 12 folded card from.

Folded it into 9 segments and matted some LOTV Timeless Victorian Papers onto each segment.
They can add a photo on each segment.

I decorated the front with flowers and plaited some narrow ribbon to tie around it to keep it closed when hung up.

I hope my swap partner likes it.

GDT at Unstampabelles Challenge

Good morning All

I was lucky to be chosen as random winner over at Unstampabelles Challenge and Susan asked me to be a guest designer for October and the theme is Gold.

It is all done on Centura Pearl card.

I did a little bit of stitching on the centre panel as I wanted to do some pricking.  Just to make it stand out a little I thought stitching with gold embroidery thread would do just that.

The side panels are Sue Wilson Cygnus die from the Gemini Collection.

The gold braid at the top was given to me by Linda (Animal Aid Charity).

I received a gorgeous bundle of lace from Susan for my prize for winning the challenge with this card HERE

Have a good day. I,m on my way to Valencia this morning and will try to post some pics.
