I thought I have a go at making feathers

I have a Wall hanging project in mind where I am doing a tall house shape, adding  a bird cage, some birds, glitter,  feathers  tree branches, flowers and musical notes. I found some music sheets in a bag of goodies I was given by a friend, the music was entitled Sunrise Serenade, it made me think of birds and there morning song,  so I decided to make the feathers out of the music sheets, these feather will go on my finished wall hanging

My friend gave me some embossed card blanks so...

Last night I made two cards using two of them. I had already made the oriental topper some time back it just needed mounting up The other card is made using My minds eye paper, cosmic shimmers to colour the  flowers in, stickles for the centre The rubber stamps are  Dawn Bibby clear stamps from QVC I put a birthday greeting on one, and left the other blank

Altered Ikea coat hanger

I have altered this coat hanger, lol in green I think maybe a bit too much green but never mind the idea is that I can hang a LO or piece of art from it in my craft room I will be able to change it whenever I want. They could be uses in any room you could hang a piece of needlework or anything from them even a nice tea towel in kitchen

Rosettes we made in crop

I was amazed how easy these rosettes were to make we made them in two different ways one using a circle punch any circle punch will do, the other using apiece of 12x12 paper a strip say 12x 2 and you can leave a plain edge, do with decorative scissors or use a punch to do the decorative edge

The card I made for my wonderful friend Maria birthday

Maria is always busy as those of you, who know her will know, she reminds me a butterfly fluttering here and there so I made her a butterfly card

The Card I made for my husband for Our Anniversary

Its was my husband and I anniversary yesterday, here,s the card I made him

Its an 8x8 card not the best photo I must admit will try to take a clearer one 

A few days back I finished some decoupaged toppers for card I not made cards out of them yet, watch this space for the cards

 Some time back during one of my charity shops searches I found a clock which unfortunately I did not take a before photo of, It was a modern picture inside I got it with the view to altering it, and finally during last week got round to it, My friend has recently has decorated her craft room in purples so I went with that as my main colour as I was doing it for her I hope she likes it

A selection of cards I made using Do Craft Creativity Mag's free papers

Men's Cards are always hard to make

At a craft demo I recently attended,  the lady demonstrating showed us how to make a little fold out card from a piece of 12x6 inch paper then add a 3inch strip, some ribbon and embellishments and your good to go. I also added some brads and extra ribbon and hey presto a birthday card for my friend's husband was born ...

This little card could be adapted to fit any season or occasion, on the next one I make I will add a little tag to the left hand side to write the message on, but for a first attempt at a little folded card I was quite pleased with the results 


I also had to make a get well card (thanks Sue for the get well soon peel offs) I used the free papers form Docrafts Creativity mag to make the card My friend loves cats she has Nine of them

Its My Husbands birthday tommorrow

We enjoy nothing better than having a cup of tea,  and the odd slice of naughty, but nice cake.  So when Sue sent me a wonderful set of Kanban acrylic stamps for my birthday I was so pleased as they were so up my street, I just knew I would be able to make the perfect card for my husband with them I used promarkers to colour the cake and cup and saucer in
