Squishy Bags

 
I have made several of these little cosmetic bags in different sizes, they have such a nice shape and feel. These were made from hand made felt embellished with stitch and beads.

What's on your Workdesk Wednesday? 237

Here is my desk this week showing off it's more casual side.......


I have simply been playing with scraps and offcuts to make a few birthday cards


For those of you concerned about the body parts last week, here is a sneaky peek of one complete body!

 
I would like to take this chance to wish the lovely Julia at Stamping Ground and all fellow WOYWWEE's a Very Merry Christmas. See you in the new year.....

Cards for all occasions

 
Such fun making this set of mini cards in a presentation box. Gelli prints were used along with die cuts and embellishments. Now if I had thought of this earlier, guess what everyone would have got for Christmas!!

Candy Canes

 
I saw this on Pinterest and just had to make one!
 
 
Candy Canes are attached around the outside of a jar (foam tape is good for this), there is a tea light inside. Go on, you know you want to!!

A flat Robin...

 
I made a batch of flat Snowman cards, where it seems as though you are looking down from above, so I thought I would try a bird the same way!

Shepherd Cards

 
I love the simplicity of these cards, great when you are making lots. The background was printed with Distress Inks which was splodged on using a strip of masking tape to transfer the ink. The silhouettes were cut out on my Cameo machine.

A print for my journal....

 
 
 
 
 
 
This print was created on brown paper with some die cuts and a figure cut from a magazine as masks. I am going to incorporate this into a bigger journal page.
