Ruby/Happy


Here are another couple of layouts from March's kit...  The first one I find a bit bland, but it is a story captured nonetheless. 


This woodgrain paper has been in my last three kits and ended up unused... at least I have used it now!!  It turns out that I am not so good with using woodgrain!


This next layout is based on denim paper from Cocoa Vanilla.  I bought three sheets but it wasn't enough.  I need more denim!! 


The heart buttons are from Crafty Ribbons.  They, to me, are the cutest little embellishments!


A little cluster at the top including a rub on and some 3mm grosgrain ribbon.


And I used some photo corners.  I like these, so it is difficult to use them... I don't understand the hoard-it-it's-pretty mindset yet I still find myself doing it!

Thanks for stopping by!

  1. I so love the way you do your LOs. The small area with loads of embellishments really stand out.

    Hope you have a lovely day. Sue

  2. The hidden journaling in the first layout is fantastic and the texture in the second one is great! Really cute photo of the baby/toddler.

  3. Well done on these lovely layouts. They are a style I want to try. I not very good at the empty spaces and tend to put too many photos on each page! I fully understand the Ít´s too pretty to use´syndrome. I suffer from it too.
    Your Friday Smile post is missing. The link on Annie´s page says ´this page does not exist´.But I hope you had a good week anyway. Kate x

    1. Sorry about that Kate. People were having problems seeing the photo so I deleted the post, I thought I could delete the link too, but I can't. x

WOYWW 159

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead up in the corresponding g

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   At each stop on the hop there'll be a word to collect and a candy draw. I've got these

WOYWW & Card Deck Swap

First up is my desk ... Hmm.  Perhaps the less said the better!  I really should have a sort out but I fancy desking instead! Next I want to share my card deck swaps (deskers don't have to stay for this bit but I reckon you'd enjoy joining in with us, which is why I'm including it in this post) You can read about the swap here on Jessica's blog and sign up here .  Basically, we take a deck of cards, add paint and/or paper, then add a positive sentiment to each card.  Post them to Jessica who shuffles them and sends back 52 different cards from different artists (yes, you are an artist!) from all over the world. These few are ones I have picked out to display first.  I'll swap them round after a few weeks.  Do you like my domino pegs?  :) Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll at least consider joining us for the card swap - it's like a super sized ATC swap, and all WOYWW er's know they are fun! See you at your desk x
