Vintage card with dress form die


 

 

IThe vintage style is a favourite of mine and here I have combined it with my new spellbinders dress form die. The paper is Melissa Francis C’est La Vie and I also used my cuttlebug to cut a spellbinders labels 14 die, and memory box dies – Amana circle and meadow leaf. I crocheted the doily ( I am no crocheter so don’t look too closely!) and I added a flower and beaded hat pin to finish.I covered the dress form with a little curtain remnant, and added some liquid pearls for a necklace.I am hoping to spend a little time in the craft room tonight, it has been a busy weekend with not much crafting done, so the ideas are backing up!Til tomorrow….

Cuttlebug and dies

I still have a couple of my prima meadow lark series to show but we will get back to them. Today ( and tomorrow) I wanted to show the final few cards I made with the last of my American crafts Neapolitan paper collection. For those that have been following you will remember that I used it in my scarp series. I had just a little left over and so decided to finish the bits and pieces left. Altogether I made 19 cards out of my 4 sheets of paper which I was quite surprised about. So, todays card made using a variety of dies and my cuttlebug  and American crafts Neapolitan paper, and a list of dies – Moonlight butterfly, kaliedoscope  butterfly, amani circle, meadow leaf ( all by memory box) spellbinders scalloped circles, and Stampin Up Party Blossom . The sentiment was all Stampin Up products – Decorative label punch,Four frames stamp set and petite pairs stamp set. Speaking of which my siser Kay brought me some new products this morning and I have had a great afternoon inking ,stamping , colouring and die cutting – the best way to spend an afternoon! Til tomorrow….
