Scrummy Stash Cafe - Paper weaving

Vanessa set a great class with paper weaving on the SSC blog this Saturday, and as I'd never done it before (well not since I was at Primary school!!) I thought I'd had a go. I'm pleased with the end result, and I did enjoy it, but don't think I'd do it again in a hurry - a bit too time consuming for me. I am the world's most impatient person and I like quick results!!

The papers and ribbon I've used are from a HOTP Personal Shopper kit and the epoxy stickers are from The Paper Studio.

CPS #75 & Papertake Cool Yule!

Papertake's challenge this week was to make a Christmas card, which is great as I'm trying to do this for most of the challenges I enter to get a bit ahead this year!

I've used this week's CPS sketch for the layout.

Papers are KI Memories, tag is K&Co Peppermint twist, and some Felt fusion.

Friday sketchers #12

Here's my take on the latest sketch from Friday sketchers. I've decided to make xmas cards for most of the challenges I do from now on as my Mum wants at least 100 - and I've got far too many other cards knocking around now!!

For this one I've used Dovecraft papers, HOTP cardstock embossed with a Cuttlebug folder, a Doodlebug snowman sticker and a Bo Bunny rub on.

Papertake sketch

Papertake also had one of Katharina's wonderful sketches this week, and I really loved this one! The background paper is 3 bugs in a rug blossom, scalloped paper is Making Memories from a journalling notebook and stamp is Penny Black.

Spoonful of Sugar #9

This wee Spoonful of Sugar had one of Katharina's fab sketches - and here's my take on it, using Nellie holding flower, HOTP papers and prima flowers.

CPS #74

Decided to make a Christmas card with this week's CPS sketch - totally unheard of for me to think about Christmas in July usually, but I'm attempting to organise myself! LOL

The papers are HOTP, as are the Poinsettias and big brad, ribbon is Papermania, greeting stamp is A Muse.

Tilda & Co #29

This week's Tilda & Co theme was "A bug's life!" so I dug out my Magnolia bees and teamed them up with Edwin sitting on a wall. Everything else on the card is from a HOTP Personal Shopper kit.
