Sew Very Much ...

No Christmas card today, naughty naughty but I am getting there.

No colouring either just this clean and simple thank you card.

I have used dies, free vintage papers, sentiment, needle

Ribbon, lace, buttons & pins from my stash.

Just a quick post today for me, lots to do sadly not crafting.

Take care, thank you for visiting my blog today and enjoy the rest of the day.

Celebrate ...

What do I have for my lovely loyal followers today.  I was asked to guest

design once again for 'Creative Craft Challenges2 Blog' 

and the challenge today is 'Occasion' but not a birthday.

I was given this image from Bugaboo Stamps called

'Shopping for Two' to work with. 

I have also used -

Papers, lace, pins, bag die, teddy, charm, ribbon, buttons & sentiment.

Thank you for visiting my blog today and I do hope

you will come and play along with us at

Take care, love x

Going round in Circles ...

Today I have a card for the new challenge over on the

Joanna Sheen Challenge Blog

which is titled 'Going round in Circles'

I have the main image on a circle and a lovely pile

of round buttons!

This challenge is my first as Co-host alongside Paula

so I am very excited to see what you can come up with.

I have used the gorgeous Haberdashery Stamp set

which has not only the sewing machine and tape measures

but scissors, bobbin, thimble and more.

Sentiment is from Pink Petticoat

Dressmakers dummy & cotton reel

Needle is an old Quickutz die 

Buttons, pins & cotton from my stash

Seam binding

Papers were a free download and OMG I can't find

where from!!!!

I do like to credit the generous people so if you recognise the 

papers as it was only recently that they were released I will

place the link here? Thank you x
