Flower Power

The design team have some amazing inspiration to share with you over on the challenge here along with all the details. I have made something a bit different, l have bought MDF pieces at craft shows and not done anything with them - until now. I painted them with Gesso then covered with distress ink and had fun stamping.

 For the pen pot l used a poppy stamp and text stamp from Inkylicious the added gems to the centres, pearl trim around the base and a pretty butterfly.

For the drawer chest l stamped with Inkylicious text and a flower stamp that l think was a freee one in craft stamper years ago.

25th of month project

Hello my lovelies, l have decided that to help become more organised for christmas l am going to make something for the 25th of each month  - it could be cards, decorations, maybe even a gift or two could even be a cake nearer the time.  

Today l am sharing some little gift card wallets - l usually buy gift cards for 3 of my grandchildren and last year the cards that came with them were a bit boring, so these will double up as there own little card too. Quick and easy to make.
