Crafty Sentiments 'Sparkle' Challenge

Good morning, the weather is not as great as it has been here but I can't complain because it is not raining! I hope your weather is treating you well wherever you maybe. 

Today is the start of the new challenge over at Crafty Sentiment Designs and this week we would like to see some 'Sparkle' on your creations. Who doesn't like sparkle? It is a nice easy challenge and you can use any company images available but of course we would love to see you using the new Crafty Sentiments Designs as they are all super cute.

I have had a real problem trying to get my 'Sparkle' to show up in the photo but I can assure you all the flowers are covered in white ultra fine glitter and the dragonflies are also glittered.

Crafty Sentiments 'Neutral Colours' Challenge

Good morning all. 

Today see another new challenge over at Crafty Sentiment Designs and this week our challenge is 'Neutral Colours'. I have never made a card or anything come to that in neutral colours before so found it really quite difficult to start but I ended up really enjoying it.

I used another of this month's new release called 'Primrose Autumn Leaves', isn't she cute? I added the little flower with button which I made after seeing one on Bev's Blog aka 'All The Things I Love' . I just gathered some seam binding and  then added my wooden button with embroidery thread and used hot glue to add it to my card. I think it is quite effective.

6" Square Card Blank - Craft Superstore

Designer Paper - DCWV 'La Creme' Stack

Image - Crafty Sentiments 'Primrose Autumn Leaves'

Sentiment - Crafty Sentiments 'Half Circle Celebration Set 1'
