NSD: LFE 2


So much going on for National Scrapbook Day!

I recently joined a kit club.  You know this already because I bang on about it all the time :)  Like For Ever are having their own celebrations for NSD and their second challenge is a sketch (by me!)  Here are the details...



Of course sketches are to be interpreted in any way you wish.  (It needn't be a 7x7 grid, it could be 4x4!)

And here are a couple of examples with close ups:



I used my April kit for this layout and I USED THE FLAMINGOS!!!


Some white satin ribbon pleated for the title to sit on.


I used my Derwent inktense pencils to mix up some watercolours. 



This layout mainly uses the March Like For Ever kit.


The heart stickers were my subscriber welcome gift :)


And a couple of the April kit's die cuts made their way on too!


I'd love for you to join in, hop over to the Like For Ever blog to see what we are up to.

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.   ...

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. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...
