Lovely 30


Oh Cocoa Vanilla, I really have a crush on you!!  (For those of you who don't know of Cocoa Vanilla, they are an independant Aussie company making gorgeous scrapbooking collections.)  Here I have used Cocoa Vanilla papers, sequins, enamel dots and flair, matched with a couple of alphas from my stash and a cut file from Just Nick.


I'm not sure why I love these papers so much.  It might be the colour palette, it might be the patterns, the fact that they are so versatile, I can't pinpoint one reason - I just adore them!


The type writer style writing is cut from a sheet of Maggie Holmes paper from a Like For Ever kit.


I layered the photos on some tissue paper and tucked some sequins underneath just peeping out.


And I popped up the 'subtitles' on some thin foam tape.  I love to do this when usng white on white as it gives lovely shadows.


So happy with this one!  And I will be doing my best not to hoard the rest of my Cocoa Vanilla supplies!!

Thanks for stopping by!

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...

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.   ...
