My latest creation for a new baby born 'Osian' is his name (it's welsh). The couple have been married 13 years, and the Lord has granted them this mircale of life. Praise Him! So I wanted something special. Inspired by Kate's work at Craft Life work I made name hanging, I was really pleased with the results. Made from blank Beer mats, and decorated with torn paper, I used a stitch stamp and other baby stamps for detail, inked the edges with silver, and used some silver QK swirls.
My latest commission for a frame. Specifications; simple, with burnt orange and gold colours, mahoganny coloured frame. If you know me, you will know I find simple difficult, so added as little as pos, but then had permission to add more, so I did! Thanks to my QK revolution for the swirls, time consuming sticking it down, but happy with the results. It is needed for this weekend, as a wedding present, so must go and get it ready for posting!
DCM are doing an interesting challenge this week... 'All styles are welcome but there MUST be an element of handcutting somewhere. It could be a greeting, a shape, letters printed on your pc and handcut, anything goes as long as you did it by hand.' So I mixed die cutting with hand cutting! (hope thats allowed!?) Anyway the grape vine was stamped and YES- cut by hand, and finally had the opportunity to use that wine glass from the Quickutz dies!
I think that's what they say in cricket? I should know really being a cricketers wife (non-pro!)... anyway, was browsing my bloggin friends blogs, and was reminded about some stamps that I hadnt used... so set to work with this cricket one..
