80th birthday



So it was my mum's 80th birthday and it took a while to find my inspiration but here's what I came up with. The flowers are from aunty Sarah's bloomers, lettering using my cricut machine, the butterfly die was a magazine freebie and the background was from spellbinders elegant labels four, woodware daisy punch and marianne creatables flourishes. Paper and card from my stash......!

Mum loved it as much as I loved making it.

Here's a cute crochet penguin cushion based on a design by Ilaria Chiaratti (www.idainteriorlifestyle.com). I really enjoyed making this. You can see this and some of our other handmade gifts and cards in our Etsy shop.

Sizzix owl

A friend asked if I would make a card for his granddaughter and here it is. It's the first time I've used this die and I'm really pleased with the result. Think this is going to become a regular feature in my  cards.
