A Catch Up!


Well, it's been a slow week when it comes to blogging...  I've been a busy bee though.  The first of the big craft fairs for this season is fast approaching and that means the Crafty Ribbons design team have been making lots of new samples to adorn the exhibition stall.  So far two new ranges have been released and my samples have safely arrived in Dorset ready for their debut next week.

Today I have had a little time to sit down and make something just for me... but what did I pick to work with?  Yep, the new Christmas ribbons!  I was thoroughly inspired by MUSE this week...


and this is my take on their design.


 Just wasn't brave enough to go for black so I stuck to the traditional white!

Thanks for stopping by!

    The shiny gold corner on your card attracted my attention right away in your thumbnail at the Muse link-up, but now that I see the bigger photo, I love the ribbons, too! How perfect to centre the little star on the topmost ribbon.

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.   ...
