MMM Vintage Theme Week 1

Hi everyone, I hope you're enjoying this nice weather!

A big hello and welcome to new member, Maribel. Thank you so much for your sweet comments.

Make My Monday have started September with a new VINTAGE challenge, this week is vintage fashion.

I thought this would be an ideal opportunity to use my chipboard mannequins and vintage lace, however I couldn't find either of them in my craft room, ggrrrr!! After finishing my card I did find the mannequins but the vintage lace has yet to be discovered, LOL.

The papers and diecuts I have used for my card are all from Craftwork Cards (apart from the little piece of blue lacy paper on the label which is by Hunkydory). Flowers by Prima.

I would also like to enter this card in the Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge to make a BIRTHDAY card.

Stampin Sisters in Christ #154

Hi everyone, I would like to express my appreciation to everyone who has visited my blog and left lovely comments, I am very grateful, thank you so much! Crafting is helping me to get through some difficult stuff at the moment.

Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge#154 is to make a card using die cuts, punches and shapes of any kind.

Their verse for this week is “Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.”  Isaiah 64:8

For my card I've used papers from the Tea-Thyme collection by Prima.

The diamond shapes were cut out using a Craftwork Cards template, the central piece is a little label from the Tea-Thyme pad and the flowers were made using flower punches.

Stamped verse is "He makes all things beautiful in His time" Ecc 3:11 (by Our Daily Bread Designs).

Word Art Wednesday challenge 42

Hello everybody, Word Art Wednesday is a challenge blog which provides a weekly Scripture verse for inspiration (although you can use any inspirational words or sentiment) and the verse this week which I've used on my card is:

I've put the verse onto a die cut shape and edges coloured with Ranger distress ink (Tumbled Glass), used Victorian Garden papers by Prima for the background, with some die cut flowers, punched leaves, pearls and ribbon.
