Whiff of Joy Recipe Challenge



The Whiff of Joy Challenge this week is a recipe - three different papers, two flowers and one brad or button. Decided to make myself a bookmark and this is what I came up with.






The papers are a mixture of K & Co., and My Minds Eye, the image is Willow with Cocoa and the Magnolia stack of books, both coloured with Promarkers. There is one brad on the top flower and the other flower has a Papermania sticky gem. Used an SU jumbo eyelet and some ribbon from Hobbycraft.

I haven't completed a challenge so quickly in a long time!!

Stamp Something Red, White and Blue!

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything for a little while but life has been so hectic and I have been finding it very difficult to get inspired to make anything. However, it's Friday which means it's time for the Stamp Something challenge and this week the very talented Melissa has set it! The challenge this week is a two parter - to create something in red, white and blue, and have it be ANYTHING BUT A CARD! This challenge is based on the fact that it's Independence Day in the States very soon so I have taken my inspiration from the Stars and Stripes, plus Lewis, my eldest Son, has been nagging me for ages to make him a book so this is what I came up with.....
