4th July tat along with Victats


 Hi,  

This little pattern was from Victats,  for the 4th July tat along,   It was over three days,  I started it before I went away and then finished it while away.

It’s a simple free pattern as a firecracker,  but when I got to the end,  I decided to finish it off as a small bookmark,  on my craft table stall small bookmarks seem to go down well,  I plan to make some more different colours.  I did post this on my Instagram account and I had a suggestion of putting green instead of the white it would look like a rose.   I am sure it would look like a rose but it’s an idea I will explore.

Check out her blog for the pattern here is Link

CD Sunday Challenge- anything goes #163

Hi,

Another fortnight has gone by and we are now in the middle of July,  time it flying fast this year,  the host this fortnight is Pamela 

For my card this fortnight is been made up from a lot of different CDs,  the image was from the Royal Horticultural Society CD by Joanna Sheen,  the sentiment is from the Flower Patch CD by Debbi Moore,  the image is matted onto gold Miri card by Hunkydory,  the backing papers, is made from left overs I had in a box which just keeps all the left over bits from different challenges,  working out which CD they all came from would be a job in itself.  I made an added a pink bow.

CD Sunday Plus challenge has a Facebook page for those who would like to enter the challenge and do not have a blog,   here is a link to the page the challenge and do not have a blog,

CD Sunday challenge - anything goes #162

 

Hi,

As I write this post,  it’s a little cooler today after the heatwave we have had,  I have been suffering a lot with the heat and this illness, I had a CT scan and waiting for the results plus the results of the biopsy taken when I had the camera down.  I hope everyone enjoyed the heatwave and hopefully there is more summer to come, I hope that was not it and there’s more good weather to enjoy,   This is my birthday weekend and we are going away for a few days,   this fortnight the host is Jocelyn 

For my card this fortnight I used a backing paper from Enchanted Dreams CD by Joanna Sheen,  a sheet from Hunkydory scorable designer pack called Northern Lights,  the X cut winter village die, Creative Expressions Festive Collection Trees,  the trees were cut from a piece of the northern lights card that was left over.  I added some silver glitter and some glitter to the trees and scene,  and a peel off happy Christmas
