Hi everyone
I have something a little different to share tonight. There is a little story to this. My dear Mum is involved in Old Thyme and Modern Seqence Dancing Social evenings, and when it comes to Easter they always have an Easter Bonnet Competition. So, this is to be one of the prizes.
As you will see, I have covered notebook. The inside cover is decorated too but I forgot to take a photo of it before I gave it to Mum. The image is from Magic Moonlight, doiley and pearls from EBay, flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and the rest is from my stash.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Sugar Creek Hollow Challenge - Vintage Hats
Crafts 4 Eternity Challenge - Very Vintage
Hotshot Crafts challenge - Anything but a card
Thank you for looking, and I hope your weekend is goig well,

Hi everyone
Such a very cold day again here with not a glimmer of sunshine but I am sure Spring is on its way somewhere! Come on Spring, where are you?
Today I have a card to share which I have made following the theme of shaped card. I opted to make a Gatefold card but I always struggle with the photos. I have used another Hobby House Topper bearing an image created by Sylvia Zet. I just love these images and as the toppers were a gift I am using them, and loving every minute of it!

Hi again
I have a card here to share which I made using one of the lovely Toppers bearing this lovely image created by Sylvia Zet. I just love Sylvia's artwork, she always goes the extra mile with everything she creates,
as does the very talented Design Team for Whimsy, which is what has inspired me to apply for the GDT post for April.
Have you seen the new image just released by Sylvia Zet? Oh my, another lovely one! Her Design Team have coloured it up lovely also. And there are other releases too on the Whimsy Blog I spy, all very lovely. To get to play with such lovely images, would really be the icing on the cake for the lucky person to be selected for Guest Designer.
So, the card:
Doiley and charm form Ebay
Edges distressed and inked.
Machine Stitching
Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts
Ribbon from Live and Love Crafts
Charm from EBay
Everything else from my stash
I would also like to enter this into the Whimsy 'Add Some Metal' challenge
Thanks for looking,

Hi everyone
Today sees the start of the new monthly challenge at Christmas Cards All Year Round, where
the theme is 'Hearts and Flowers'. At first I was not sure what to do for this Challenge, but as soon as I remembered Sylvia Zet's Wee Amy, I soon got going!
Amy is one of my favourite
stamps created by Sylvia Zet (well I like them all) and I coloured
this lovely little lady with Copics and Promarkers, not forgetting the
Stickles of course.
I think this would make a lovely card for many occasions, Christmas and Valentine included.
