Hoppity Hop! (SpiegelMom Scraps)

 
 
Hello folks and welcome to our Sparklers Unit blog hop! The Sparklers are split into two teams; The Blog Squad (which I am part of) and the YouTube Squad. Each month we come together to hang out in blogland and bring you some great tips, techniques and inspiration! 
 
 
For this hop, you should have arrived here from the rather lovely Rachel!
You can find the entire list and start hopping here.


For my layout I welded 3 of Khristina's cut files together to make a real feature of the hearts.  I used Pretty Little Studio's Woodland collection to back the hearts and turned two of them in to shaker pockets.  I used the thin plastic a paper pack was packaged in.


You know me, one sequin mix is never enough... I have used some from each of these mixes: Alma Mater, Gold Sweetheart confetti, & Shamrock Stars.


 I am loving these colours - the yellow is my favourite!


I'd love for you be in the running for the $10.00 shop credit, so be sure to leave comments on all the blogs to be entered! You have until 4th August to comment and enter. Sharing on social media will also earn you an extra entry. Just leave another comment letting us know where you shared the blog hop event.


I am your last stop, a huge thank you for spending your time with us today!

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.   ...
