My busy Hands

This is my 2nd post today - details of the City Crafters Challenge are in my first post ... just scroll on down.


I told you I had been busy ... my mind whirling with thoughts and inspiration, and you gotta just go with the flow sometimes ...  I saw this beautiful picture - the inspiration for The Shabby Tea Room Challenge


So last night I sat and created this little hanging piece ....











I started with chipboard from an album and painted and glittered the edges then added a background of Websters pages and  a vintage postcard .... Little handmade roses mixed with leaves, twigs and flowers from my stash ...  see the little eggs in my birds nest? I had so much fun making this ... Do you like?

I have just finished another project so will share with you soon ....

keep safe

Tuesday Challenge at CCCB

Hello .. Good morning to you all ...
Well it's Tuesday again and hat means the start of another City Crafter Challenge ... Congratulations to all the winners of last weeks' challenge ... please have a look at their lovely creations if you get the time ...
This week Linda is hosting the challenge and it's a sketch challenge - the DT have given you some great examples - hop over and check out their blogs too .......




 You can use any colours your little heart desires just enjoy! We all look forward to seeing your beautiful creations ... AND ... there is a prize up for grabs!
This is my card based on the sketch ... had to add a butterfly and bow ... that's just me ... normally I would vary my colours but I kinda liked this combination ...




Aren't those little flowers sweet? ... wanna know where they came from? ... Ikea ... Yes honestly!
I pick things up from everywhere ... someone sees a cutlery tray ... I see wall art! I look at everything from and arty angle .. my husband often says "Ok .. I can see your mind working ... what are you seeing now?" 

I'll leave you to get cracking and just tell you that my fingers have been busy ... and I have a little something to share with you later ... 

Till soon
