Spotty, Dotty and Yellow






I'm so loving working with yellow!  Here is my second yellow card for Less is More.

I've combined the sketch from Retro Sketches, the yellow from Less is More, and included a Happy Birthday for Casual Fridays.




I've inked the edges of my papers with canary yellow ink.  I used swiss dots grosgrain ribbon from Crafty Ribbons.




Happy Birthday peel off for Casual Fridays - Happy Birthday Guys!!




I've made a slit in the spine of the card and looped the ribbon through.  I've hidden the join underneath the bow.

    Maybe yellow releases endorphins or something... I'm certainly enjoying looking at all these lovely submissions!

    I have been loving yellow lately -- maybe because it's spring here?
    Lovely work on your card. I especially like the gold script sentiment.

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.   ...
