always love...


Have you seen the new collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio?  Of course you have, it was all over the scrappy world in minutes of being debuted!  I *want* all of it.  But I have so much stuff, especially CVS stuff, that I need to make a good dent in what I have before I am allowed to buy more!


So this will be the first of a run of CVS layouts!  I can't tell you what bit came from what collection but it all CVS other than the white alphas, doily and ribbon.


I struggle with using arrows, they never seem to make it on to the final page for me.  I got three on this layout... which of course means I can buy the new CVS ephemera pack as I am now low on arrows!


I love a bit of bunting.  This string is tied on to and held up by a skewer.


And I used a proper long title too.  I'm torn in two.  I love the very minimal style but I need to get some stash used up.  This still has white space but uses more materials than I usually use.  I like it but we'll see if I can keep it up!

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.   ...
