Live, Love, Laugh

This morning was my monthly Saturday morning workshop where various projects have been made today.

Cheryl and Sheila did the Warm Winter Wishes wall hanging,

 Carold D and Ann made the Christmas Ornament Keepsake,

Chris (yes - another Chris!) made Live, Laugh, Love wall hanging, but with a twist!

You can see my original version HERE
and see Chris's version for a fella below.

Hasn't she done a great job of this!!

Live, Laugh, Love.

This is another wall hanging that I have made based on Sally-Jo's original idea.

The base cards are cut with the Top Note Die and the background stamp is from Creative Elements.

The heart and flowers are from the You are Loved stamp set which will be making a come-back

 in the Annual Catalogue on 1st October - Hurray - I love this set!

The flowers were stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink.

The heart was stamped in Whisper white onto Cherry Cobbler card stock  

and heat embossed with White EP, then cut out by hand.  

The butterflies are cut out ods Cherry Cobbler card stock using the Beautiful Wings Embosslits die.

The little hearts were punched using the Small Heart punch and raised on dimentionals.

The word were stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink on Whisper White using the Letter It stampset.

I used some Cherry coloured thin ribbon from my stash to fasten the 3 pieces together.

(Another one that I will keep for myself!!!)

Dale's Birthday

It's my baby sister's partner's Birthday on Saturday, so today I have made this card for him.

I used the Timber wheel to get the texture on the tree trunk,

 rollering with a combination of Chocolate Chip and Early Espresso ink.

The owl is punched using the Owl Builder punch ,

 Dale is stamped using the Letter It stamp set in Midnight Muse.

The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.
