Garden Celebration


Hello, I hope all is well as it can be with you. Today I am sharing a very special garden which 
I made for someone’s 90th  birthday. He is a keen gardener so a garden scene was the most obvious choice. I had a lot of fun creating this, lots more photos and details are over on the Calico Craft Parts Blog today. 

Thank you for visiting, and please stay safe xx

Summer Garden


Hello, how are you today? A summer garden is my inspiration for my project over on Calico Craft Parts Blog today. I used some dried rose petals from our own garden for the pathway up to the door. I used a heart for the door as home is where the heart is.

Beside the Seaside


Oh wouldn’t it be nice to be beside the Seaside beside the sea! I won’t be seeing the sea this year, so I have consoled myself with making a Seaside scene. The little lady is certainly enjoying her ice cream! More details about how she came to life are over on the Calico Craft Parts Blog , I hope you can pay her a visit.I found the most brilliant thing to make really realistic looking ice cream! 

Take care, and please stay safe, thank you for visiting me today xx.

Happy Alice In Wonderland Day !


Happy Alice In Wonderland Day! You can find more details about this special day here 

To celebrate the day I have made this tea party scene. I used Alice and the White Rabbit which I made with air drying clay used in a mould. I painted them with acrylic paints. You can’t have the tea party without a Mad Hatter, so I drew him and coloured him with watercolours. 


I added lots of little Wonderland details underneath the table.I stamped a tiny Queen of Hearts playing card, and a “Drink Me “ tag to tie onto the little bottle.


I found the little tea set at Spitafields antique market, I don’t think it is actually an antique though!


I stamped some rabbit paw print marks onto the base of the table 

I must dash now as there are jam tarts to make for our Madhatters tea today, and lots  of decorations to put up. 

I would like to enter this little scene into the following challenges

Alice In Fiskars Land


I made this 3d scene for one of my Fiskarettes UK design team posts.I love Alice in Wonderland! I have had a set of little wooden tables for ages, but I have never used them! So I finally decided I would put one together, and then continued to have a lot of fun creating the Alice scene around it. 

The Fiskars 3 in 1 tag maker is brilliant it easily cuts through shrink plastic! After punching it out I wrote ”Drink Me” onto it before shrinking it and tying it around the minature bottle. I then punched out a lots of hearts and painted them red, and glued them vertically up from the top of the table.The  circle punch was really useful to punch out a clock from some patterned paper, and I also used the beautiful butterfly punch to perch a butterfly on the edge of the  table.
I finished by adding some small playing cards which came out of  a Christmas cracker, and lots of other embellishments such as a hanging key, a pot etc etc

The lovely Alice stamp is made by Carabelle Studio

Thank you so much for visiting.

Playing Not Fighting

 

This is my dream of a world where everyone is kind and considerate, law abiding, and there is no illness, disease or disability.
Dream on....

 

A closer look, the Hares are playing not fighting! Sometimes you have to fight back though...
I watercoloured the background,and stamp embossed some ivy in enchanted gold. I bought the Hares to life with watercolours, and used more watercolours to make the flowers bloom and the little butterfly fly!

 

This is the card folded down, I just need to buy an envelope to fit it now!

Thank you for visiting today.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges.
