My first post for Swedish House Crafts.

Good morning.

I am here to share my first post for Swedish House Crafts.

I have been admiring the work of the DT ladies for a long time and was thrilled when Suha asked me to join her team. Such an honour to work alongside such talented ladies.

I will be predominantly show casing flowers made from Foamiran but I will also show the effects of using the same die on paper and as you will see below, vellum. 

I coloured the foam flowers with Ink pads. The two large vellum flowers were scored on the back of the vellum to create the lines on the leaves before colouring. 

My DT package included the adorable Elephant which is part a 5 piece set. I have to say they are all so darn cute.

My next project with show how have I used this image and the lush Denim Girl papers to make a card. Of course many of the above flowers will be used.

For my Friend

Good morning.

I hope you have all had a lovely Easter break.

It has been lovely having 4 days off work, though I am going back today for a rest!
I have spent two weeks sorting through all my craft room and have got rid of stuff I have had for probably 5 years or more. I needed to because I have moved my craft room into what was our living room, which was smaller, and visa versa.  Apart from needing a carpet for our living room, I am really pleased with my decorating. My craft room, though it is looking good, is not finished, so you will have to wait for some photos. Needless to say, I can now join the Blue Peter brigade as I am now an expert in covering things with sticky back plastic and spray paint!


Anyway, the reason I am here today is for my inspiration project for Noor Design UK.

The main focus of this card is the gorgeous Grapevine Heart from Scrapiniec. This set also comes with a smaller heart if you don't want it to be the main focus of your card.

I have really enjoyed making the Foamiran flowers today. There are so many possibilities for gorgeous flowers with the dies and foam. If you are a bit nervous about making Foamiran flowers, You Tube has so many tutorials.

The antique bronze leaf swirl, bronze leaf and bronze corners add weight and depth to the card.

I hope the return to work wasn't too painful this week.

Thank you all for stopping by and for your lovely comments.

See you all soon.

Inspiration for Noor Design UK.

Good Morning.

I hope you are well and having a good week.

I am here to share with you my latest inspiration card for Noor Design UK.

For todays card I have used Magnolias  Rosebud Tilda.

For the shape of the card I used Dutch Doobadoos Shape Art Square 2.

The paper is from Maja Designs Vintage Romance Just You and Me.

The beautiful lace which you can get in three colours is Gwendoline. The flowers on this lace make pretty embellishments if you cut out each flower as I have use on my previous post.

To make up the flag I used Vintage Straws in Gold, Little Darling Stitched Flags Die from the set and Whimsy Stamp Bold Banner Rubber Stamp.
I have added various flowers, wax cord, leaves and pearls using the pearl pen to embellish.

I would like to enter the following challenges.

Enjoy the rest of your week and I will see you again soon.
