Friendship in a window


Hello everyone and welcome to another week. Today I have created a different type of card for you. I have created some foamiran flowers with the lovely Lade E dies :)






This is a farewell card for a dear friend of mine who is also a work colleague. I wanted to create something to show her that friendship lasts forever.





All things I have used are in the shop links to them are at the end of the post.





I have backed up the window die with the lovely Pion Design images with lovely quotes and pictures...this says 'friends are the sunshine of life'. You get different images or quotes and they are perfect to use for different ocassions.


Not sure if you spotted the lovely hyacinth flowers we have in the shop but I felt it matched this lovely Pion design paper to a tee so I used one today on my project.


I have sprayed the white foamiran flowers with the glitter mist spray and used white gesso on the window.



I have to admit that lilac/mauve/purple are my favourite colours so you will be seeing a lot of my creations with this colour.... hopefully you like it too 

XOXO

To have and to hold...


Hi everybody good morning hope you are all having a wonderful day. Another week flew by and it's wedding season again :)

Sharing with you today another Wedding Goatbox but this time I am using the three layered one with inserts.

I have lots of photos to share with you so I hope you read till the very end!




For the lid I have used the Prima flowers, a foamiran flower I created and a Scrapinice frame with butterfly and love with arrow chipboard on the top


I have used lace around the lid to give it a vintage look


In the middle I have used this chipboard winter gate from Scrapiniec and placed flowers on both sides


This is how it looks open....very hard to picture all the layers :)


Every leaf of this box has been created differently no side is the same.


I have also used a lot of silver grey mist spray


This gwendolyne lace is to die for :)


From within the four inserts I placed a tag made out of kraft paper





I have fussy cut some of the motifs on the beautiful Mintay Marry Me papers



I have done the same here using some natural sisal at the back.


This bloomar chipboard frame fitted perfectly in one of the sides and I have stamped a sentiment on the inside. I have also used white gesso.


I have gone round one of these lovely square die cuts with some pom pom lace


This is another Bloomar chipboard frame with lovely hearts around it


I hope you have enjoyed looking at this wedding box and I hope I have inspired you to create something similar.

xoxo

TOMIC Challenge #3 - May Flowers

Hello everyone, 1st May is here and it's a Public Holiday here today.

The sun is shining, the sea is nice and fresh and I would love to go swimming only if I had some time...

Sharing with you my card for the TOMIC challenge number 3 - May Flowers





I've gone for pastel colours and combined most of them together.



Tilda has been coloured with prisma pencils on kraft paper. I have used a Magnolia sentiment and a scrapiniec border around the image to try and give it some dimension.


Lady E die under the flowers over the chipboard frame and some lovely Wild Orchid Crafts flowers too.


I have purchased the lovely Tilda Tag and it's hiding behind the image.


The butterfly is a rubber stamp from Stempelglede

Off to enjoy some family time.... hope you enjoy your day and am back with you tomorrow with something different xxx

XOXO

Claire
