these three


This layout was made with various challenges in mind.  On Facebook the FTLOPP theme is buttons, the HLM theme is chevrons, UK Scrap Addicts have a rainbow moodboard. 


I've used the Lottie Loves Paper June kit and buttons from Crafty Ribbons.


 Are they chevrons in the background?  Or zig zags?  And, in fact, what is the difference?!


The tiny flowers were cut from the Pebbles Tealightfil 6x6 paper pad.  They were a tiny flourish in a tea cup but the perfect size to layer behind my weakest button.


I love how this has turned out.  I'm half tempted to pop it in a box frame with a whole bunch of loose iridescent sequins at the bottom.


Kinda of a play on heart strings?

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...

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.   ...
