Hello again, today I am sharing pics of the birthday card I made for my Mum.

I used spellbinders grand decorative circles and ovals, flowers from wild orchid crafts and hobbycraft, another spelly die for the greeting, and some white silky crush ribbon from Chloe Endean. Oh and a lovely 'jelly tot' for the centre of the ribbon.
A mixture of centura pearl card and some papers I had in my stash made the basis of the card. I also used the stick pins which I bought in Dunelm Mill. Hope you like it! Sue xx

Lets 'av another go!

I'm surprised my blog is still here. If you can call it a blog! I'm going to try to resurrect it and upload pics of my playtime.
This is a canvas board I recently did.
I used pan pastels for the background, and using some masks from Sheena Douglass, I used modelling paste around the border and for the monarch butterfly. I also used an old mask I had from the pound shop to put in some flowers and small butterflies down the right hand side. Its quite difficult to see them in the photo.
I then painted some lilacs using Sheena's paint fusion technique, which I love. I sprinkled the modelling paste with glitters and stamped 'follow your heart' with Sheena's stamp.
I loved doing it but still think it needs something else. I'm always like that, I can't leave it alone and have trouble resisting before I ruin it!
