It's been far too long!

Hello everyone!

It's been far too long since I posted on here. I have been so busy that I feel like I haven't even had time to breathe!! I have spent so many hours making products for my craft fair which happened last weekend, although it wasn't as successful as I had hoped it had been I do now have the bug for doing craft fairs and am already looking for another to do.

Here are a couple of photos from my fair and I hope you like the look of it.

On the left side is a collection of the product I did which includes memory boxes, cushions, frames, cards, tealight holders and my pocket mirrors.  On the right is the collection my aunt and uncle did which were driftwood and seaglass images, also some embroidered pieces.

I will be uploading closer images of my cushions and frames in the coming weeks!  Thank you for reading.  Also don't forget to take a quick peak at my Etsy page which has some products on and I will be adding more soon.

Bye for now!

A kept promise

Hello everyone!

As promised last week I told you I would show my mams birthday cards which I made.  She had a lovely day and loved her cards which I was very pleased about.  I created two very different cards and I really enjoyed making them.  I have also been busy this week making lots of stock up for my craft fair which is creeping closer!  I have photos up on my Facebook page and my Etsy shop.  Also don't forget I have entered the Ohh Deer competition and need your help to win, my links are in last weeks post.

The first was pink card with a white border and pink heart and happy birthday sentiment.

I hole punched lots of little flowers in different shades of pink before gluing them into the shape of a heart.  I then added "Happy Birthday to my Amazing Wife" to the side of the card and 2 pink rhinestones.  I also added a few little pink rhinestones to the flowers on the heart.  The card was left blank inside.

The second was a very basic colour scheme of beige and black.

I layered the card so I had beige then black then beige which I then placed 2 die cut black butterflies on, I added 3 small silver rhinestones to the middle of each butterfly.  I love the simplicity of this card.  I added an Happy Birthday sentiment inside.

Hope you've all had a brilliant week and enjoy reading my post.

See you all next week.
Bye for now!

A new product

Hello everyone!

Another busy week here and I have to say I am absolutely loving it!  I've opened my Etsy shop this week and although not many products it is a start, here is a link if you want to check it out Etsy Shop.

I have also just finished one of my new products which I am going to show now.  I am very excited about these and am over the moon with how they look.

Introducing my memory boxes...

M is for Memories

Close up of the box

On these boxes I have used white card with text printed onto it and layered it on pink card.  I then added the die cut butterflies and glued rhinestones as extra embellishment.

The dimensions of the box is 300mm deep, 150mm x 400mm and it had a magnetic lid to hold it shut.

Hope you all like them!

You can find some more pictures of my other boxes on my Facebook page by clicking on this link, Memory Boxes.

Bye for now!

Preparing for the fair

Hello everyone!

I have had a busy little week since I last posted.  I've designed some CD covers and disc fronts for my dad's duo Eurasianeyes (Eurasianeyes Facebook) ready for them to release their EP!  I've also been working on new card designs, some new designs for pocket mirrors and I'm currently working on some new products but not sure how they will work yet so got my fingers crossed.

I have decided to share a Christmas card which I have made, I know it seems so early to be making Christmas things but it will creep round so fast it's scary!

I've used red and brown card onto a white background for this card with a green ribbon to tie in all the Christmas colours, I've stamped using brown ink adding rhinestones for that little bit of sparkly magic everyone loves at Christmas time.

Hope you all like the card and will keep reading in the coming weeks as I prepare for the craft fair on November 16th and 17th.

Bye for now!
