Pizza | News Just In | Frames


Back with three more layouts today.  One features ribbon and the other two use Cocoa Vanilla goodies.  I'm not allowing myself to but any new Cocoa Vanilla supplies until the current box has space in.


I typed the title up in my Silhouette Studio software and cut it on the Cameo.  I then used a fantastic ribbon from Crafty Ribbons to back the openings.



The hearts come from a couple of cards in the latest Crafty Templates kit.


 Being generous with the enamel dots - truly a struggle for me!


The layout needed some help so I outlined the letters in scribbly black pen and added a border too.


Now on to the CVS...


One of my pet peeves is how gender stereotype the craft world is.  Here you very much have a boy layout with a boy collection and then a girl layout with a girl collection.  I hate that!  I can quite easily use the boy collections with all my photos but the girl collections really don't work with photos of my boys...


Ekeing the last few titles out of this sheet of chipboard alphas.  The N is comprised of an I and part of an M.  Rather than try and disguise the join I added some sewing to highlight it.


I colated all the chipboard frames I had...


 and spent some time juggling/tesselating/nestling them.




I used up some pink florals filling some of the frames...


and added a few embellishments.  The button looked naked so I added some thread to it.


Considering I usually struggle to use one frame I'm really pleased with how this layout turned out!


Thanks for looking!

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.   ...
