Summer Fun for Allsorts

Good Morning All

I am hosting Allsorts Challenge this week and I have chosen a theme of

Summer Fun

I went with a pastel card and paper.

I found this lovely vintage image from Crafters Companion of two little girls catching butterflies and popping them in a jam jar.

Do you remember doing that when you were little, I do.

Mum used to pack us up a picnic of jam butties and a bottle of cordial and off we would go for the day, no worries about safety, just fun.

I printed the sentiment out.

Added a piece of a paper doily on one edge.

And some gems.

Digi??

Good Morning All

Another Digi card  I'm not sure where from.

I am clearing my Digi folder out and I know I should write on the back whose they are but I didn't.

A very simple card really.

Thanks for the visit and see you Saturday.

Anything Goes for Crafty Ribbons

Good Morning All

It is my turn to post for Crafty Ribbons today and I have these cute envelopes to show you which I decorated with ribbons from the store.

I made the envelopes on My Memory Keepers board and they are about 3 x 4.5 inch, big enough to hold a gift card and this is what I use them for.

I give 2 shop vouchers for prizes at my Craft Club every week.

All the ribbons are grosgrain and are available HERE.

A challenge from Gi Kerr

 Good Morning All

A folio to show today.

I made this for a challenge on Facebook set by Gi from Happiness in Crafting.

She gives out a freebie every Friday and she set a challenge to use them along with an envelope template she gave .

This is what I made, a shabby chic folio.

I used as many bits as I could and added a notebook made with coffee dyed papers.

Lots of pockets and tucks and secret places.

There are over 100 entries so I dont hold out much hope!!!!!!

Happy Sunday & Challenge

Good Morning All

My challenge for the Craft Club ladies and yourselves, if you wish to join in, is

Black & White. (plus gold or silver ONLY)

My card is very simple.

I found this digi is my stash, don't know whose it is.

I just mounted it onto black card which I punched in the corners added a gold pearl and a sentiment and that was it.

****************************

The gifts I gave out on Friday were these boxes containing a sponge.

Some of the ladies said they would use them in their craft rooms to keep their pins in or glue tops.

I suggested cutting a hole in the middle to store the glue bottle in upside down,!!

********************************************

Last weeks challenge was to make  something Christmas with ribbon.

I gave my ladies a piece of ribbon from Crafty Ribbons to use as they wished and they came up with some belters.

Mine.

Stick Pins and a reminder for Allsorts Challenge

 Good Morning All

Just a reminder that Allsorts Challenge runs for 2 weeks over the Summer

The theme is Masculine and this was the card I showed last week.

While it is so hot, I tend to stay in the living room and craft so I have been , making lots of Stick pins and books to put them in to send with swaps and gifts when we start posting again.

The booklets are about 3 x 5 inch and hold 6 pins.I have decorated with snips of ribbon and lace from Crafty Ribbons.
