Wildlife for River of Creativity

 Good Morning All

River of Creativity Challenge this month is

Wildlife

I used a stamp set that was a freebie in a magazine and is perfect for this.

I have afew backgrounds already inked on my desk using Oxides and I thought this pinky orange one was perfect for an African scene.

Hope you like it.

I Love...... for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge this week is

I Love......

Well there are afew things I love in the Craft world  ---

Junk Journalling and Groovi being just 2 of them so I went with Groovi.

I used one of the Italian grid plates for the border and pale green parchment.

The focal point is one of Clarity's Poppet images and I just glittered the flowers and did a little bit of white embossing on her skirt.

Our sponsor is Helping Hands with a Voucher for the winner.

Bingo for MAWTT

 Good Morning All

Over at Moving Along With The Times Challenge is is Caroles turn to choose a theme and she picked a Bingo chart.

I used Gems,  Patterned paper and Embossed paper as the parchment is embossed.

I made this gorgeous Groovi hearts a good while ago at one of my Groovi classes as we were glittering our work and I made  this to show how lovely it could be. 

 So I mounted it onto Gorgeous designer paper then onto Gold Mirri.

There was not much room for a sentiment tag so just added a Peeloff Congratulations to keep it general then it may be given as an Engagement or Wedding or Anniversary card.

AG with Nature Option for Allsorts

 Good Morning All

Allsorts Challenge theme this week is chosen by Ellie and it is

Anything Goes with an option of Nature

I made two notebooks to give to family members and they both have a theme of nature running through them.

This is the first one and this is the front cover.

A lovely pastel shade paper and I added a strip of material for strength on the spine.

I added a double page with pockets and put a Journal card in each one.

This is the second one, very similar.

And both have a pocket on the inside of the back cover.

Very happy with those and I hope the girls I gave them to did too.

Crochet Shrug

 Good Morning All

I dont have a card to show today as all the ones I made at the weekend are for DT work or my Sketch challenge so I bring to you instead a shrug I have Crocheted.

I follow a lady on You Tube, Hey Carrie and here is  her video for this shrug.

I did add the sleeves, making them longer.

I found some lovely soft wool, it is abit like cotton.

Anyway I have decided to give it to Lorien when I go over in November as she really likes it.
