Stripes - Monday Challenge

I thought I'd take part in Pollycrafts Monday Challenge. I decided to use the Paws 'From Our Family to Yours' design. Of course the Stripes design is included I used a stripe effect backing paper along with the stripe design strip that comes with this particular Paws design. To this I then framed the pictyre with red ribbon and added green stars to the corners and a couple of gold stars aswell. From here I added some glitter to the holly berries and to the pom pom on the hat then added a few peel off snow flakes which I coloured to match the design.

I hope you like my design.

Craft Exhibition Glasgow SECC

Well folks Tracey and I got back last night from a Craft Exhibition at Glasgow's SECC it was great! There were plenty of exhibitors demonstrating their products and ideas! They are having another event in March just click on the link below for details.

Of course Tracey and I had to buy some. So watch this space and Traceys http://craftsncapers.blogspot.com/ for our creations using our new purchases.

One of the stalls were called Glitter Magic and from the title u can imagine they sell glitter. This glitter is very fine, is anti-static and can be machine washed on fabric at 30 degrees. Its great this glitter is so fine it wont mix together allowing you to add multiple colours one after the other without waiting for the rest to dry. Gives such a great effect to any crafters work. Unfortunately they dont have a website but if anyone would like their e-mail address give me a shout.

The following link gives u a list of exhibitors who were at this weekends event.

I'll stop boring you for now but keep watching for samples made using our new toys!

Granddaughter birthday card

This is my latest creation! A card I made for my friend to give to her granddaughter for her 1st birthday. I have to say the photo doesn't do the card much justice! I really like this card design and think its probably the best one I've made yet! Its not made with a Polly craft design but I like it all the same! And thankfully my friend Jackie loved it which is the main thing!

I made it as a 3 fold card as you can see in the photo opposite.
