Birthday Card

This card is for CCCB challenge and Crafty Ribbons Challenge and Cute Card Thursday. 

The theme for CCCB is ribbon and while I've not used a lot of ribbon I think the ribbon I have used packs a punch!

And over at CRCB the theme is Birthday and at Cute Card Thursday the theme is Happy Birthday.


I used an embossed card blank and covered with versa mark and interference gold mica powder to get a good sheen.


Stamped and embossed a Happy Birthday, layered it up on a subtly stamped music score from papermania urban stamps and a piece of red to match the ribbon.  The ribbon was simply tied in a knot and fixed in place.  It's a wide, wire edged, embossed ribbon form crafty ribbons.  Yummy!

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better.

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   ...
