Time for a challenge?


The challenges at Crafty Ribbons Challenges have restarted after a little summer holiday.  This fortnight it is my choice of theme and I've gone with Butterflies and Birds...  any handmade creation that uses ribbon and includes at least one butterfly and one bird is welcome - Mr Linky is here(p.s. it has been changed to either a bird or a butterfly)

On to my make...


I've had some free papers (sorry, I don't know where they came from) sitting around for a while and decided now was the time to pull them out for  play.  


Of course I used copious amounts of ribbon, buttons and lace from Crafty Ribbons too.


If you want to replicate this you'll need these ingredients; white ric rac, white sheer organza, lace, swiss dots, buttons (I used several different Basics2Go packs).

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.   ...
