Treasures Tin

Hello Ladies

Welcome to February and my first post, using our brand new

Magnolia Lane Collection by our very own Sue Smyth.

I know Mothers Day is a while away, but it never to soon to start thing of it, so today I've created a "treasure tin" just for mum, using a old coffee tin.

First I choose a page from the 12x12 paper pad "Elegant Lady", cutting it in half, and attaching it to the tin, with 18mm double sided tape

As there is a small gap, at the top and bottom of the tin, I've covered it with pink cardstock, then take a piece of Pink Decorative Lace, run soon 3mm double side tape along the centre of the lace, fold it in half, run more tape along the folded edge, now attach to tin

From the 6x6 paper pad, cut form the Elegant Lady sheet, the lady corner, with foam and double sided tape, attach it over the lager Elegant Lady,

here layer flowers and butterflies, from the Ephemera set, with foam tape

to the large Lady image, I added Couture Creations Adhesive Pearls - Pretty Pink, to her string of pearls, and head band, a small Cottage rose to complete her head band

cut 5 Drifting Feathers, ink the edges and place them behind the flower cluster 3 at one end,

and 2 at the other end

Place a couple of tassels for the Ephemera pack, along side the tassel in the pattern paper,

use foam tape for a little depth

cut several from the layered flower collection using Blue Eyed Daisy, ink the tip of each petal, glue each layer together, spray with a little water, bend petals into the centre, when dry reopen flowers 

Lid of tin covered with flowers, Couture Creation Gems, and pearls have been added to the centre, and Ephemera butterflies, glued on to wire, hover over them

Added a few bits and pieces, to make it your own, have fun with this beautiful range

Too Darn Cute Layout

 

 

From the Everyday Essentials, I cut 2 of the Classic Leaf in cardstock and the Edith butterfly form Edith and Baby, in patter paper covering it with glue, and topping with glitter

 

 

take the Flourish from Elegant Card Cuts, Mercato Flourish, this I have used as a leaf vine behind my flower

 

Secret Gardens Butterfly Flourish, is a lovely addition to my flourish cluster

 

 

Again from pattern paper, I cut one Invali Fancy Butterfly

 

 

Using one Camden Cottage Rose, spritz with colour, touch the edge of some of the petals, a brush and the spritz make the flower a little more interesting, then lightly sprayed with spray adhesive, and glitter sprinkled over that, shake off excess glitter, makes for a very nice ice flower

Chilling Out Hawaiian Style

Welcome to my first 2016 post,

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year,

and your ready for a whole new year of crafting,

So today I had a little fun with, Couture Creations Floral Layers, and Perfectly Petite Doilys

Layout

Taking the Blue Eyed Daisy dies, I cut several of each size, then I inked the tips of each petal, some of the flowers i just tipped the petals up to the centre, the other flower I twisted each petal on a skewer, added a brad to the centre, and top of it I placed  2mm gemstones for a little bling

.

My clear flowers were created, with the Star Of Jasmine die, I cut these out of a coke bottle, inked the edges, and genterly heated them over a candle flame, till they started to curl

finished flower

video on coke bottle flower

Using Autumn Wreath, Lullabies, and Victoria, cutting them in half and layered them, to from a nice border along my photo

for something a little different, rub some of our lovely Pearl Drops in the corner, bhind the flower spray

Place all you ellements on your page, and have fun with it

Hello Ladies

December is here, and today I have a sweet little card, for you, it could be used for Christmas, birthday anything, with just a colour change.

We are visiting a few of Couture Creations earlier collections, Kalini, Everyday Essentials,

Petite Doily, Glamour Days and there

brand new Pearl Drops, so lets go

 

 

First I cut my card to size, and a second panel, which I sanded the edges using our sanding block

 

 

 

Here I've used two of the petite doily collection, Lotus Daily, Glamor and Grace, to make the flowers, cut 3 of each doily, adhere each one in the centre, with the Glue Pen let dry, spritz with water crunch each layer, into the middle, when dry gently reopen, and some gemstones to the centre

 

 

take the Kalini Swinging on a tree, using the tree section only, cut 4, these we are using as the greenery, behind the flowers

 

 

Now to the New Pearl Drops, smear some of the Everygreen over your card, around the flower spray

 

 

Cutting the baby butterfly form Everyday Essentials Edith and baby, here I added a little

 Pearl Drops Cottonball 

 

 

Close up of flower spray, add some cottage roses to fill out the spray

 

 

Add a little Pearl Drops Pharach to give the New York Street Light, a glow

 

 

Hope you like my card
