Lets Get Shabby- Weddings

Hello all!

The Let's get Shabby, criteria for this month is weddings (anything to do with them, e.g bride/groom, flowers, church, flower girls, bridesmaids, dress and etc. I did love). You probably don't know that I actually ADORE all things wedding! I follow three wedding blogs, borrow all the wedding magazines from the library, and I aspire to become a wedding planner :D


This is what I came up with:



Oh, and I found this illustration I did a while back of a little beach hut :)

Hope you like it!

Inkurable Stampers- Shabby Chic Cristmas!

Aaah! Hurry hurry hurry! Last day to enter the Inkurable Stampers November Challenge!!

These are my christmas cards for my friends (first one shown is the one I am entering)


(click on above pictures for a larger image)

Once again I used my "Oh Joy!" papers (and got to use all the different ones!). The puzzle peices were with sizzix dies, stamped with various christmas stamps and distress inked. The tim holtz music stamp is fast becoming one of my favourites! Twine and cotton tied with a charm around the puzzle peices (each mounted) and Darkroom door christmas wordstrip phrases finished it off.

Thanks for stopping by!

Lets Get Shabby & a sewing project

Hey I'm back!




I have had my shabby entry waiting to be posted for a while, but I finally got round to posting it.




As this Christmas card is going to be for my wonderful mum, I used a recessed window as a sort of tribute :) I used some more of my lovely "Oh Joy!" papers from Cosmo Cricket.

The challenge was to use at least three sewing items, including pins. I used pins, ribbon and a safety pin for my 3 items.


I also made a funky door snake out of corduroy- it even had dinosaur spines :P
