Workshop makes

I had a great day out at the Hobbycraft show at the NEC at the end of last month and I managed to book myself in to a couple of workshops while I was there. The first one I did was with Stephanie Weightman of Create and Craft TV fame where we made this pink rose stepper card. I love the image and it really is a quick and easy make, just assembling the pieces in the right order. The other workshop was with Lisa B where we made this beautiful tag using masking techniques and distress inks. The stamped image is embossed and painted and then some glitter for added bling. I'm going to mount the tag onto a card I think and add some ribbon.

These are my "posh" pics! My friend and I went up to Knightsbridge for one of those makeover nad photoshoot days and these are the results. I mounted them on plain paper and then I used some acetate overlays that I bought t the NEC in march. I don't think they need anything else :O)

For my Friend

My Best friend reaches the big 4 0 this week too and I wanted to make something special for her. Earlier this year I found this kit at the NEC it is by Bo Bunny, all the papers and embellishments are perfect for the occasion I think it makes a lovely gift. I have added a few photos of us but left some spaces for her to add her own later.

For Alice

Here is the card I have made for my daughter's birthday, she is going to be 14 on Saturday!! The stamp is one I bought at the NEC last weekend coloured with watercolours ( my new favourite technique!) and mounted on a tag and the papers are from Flavia. I hope she likes it.
