I took the colours from a Wedding Favour
sweetie bag which was a red bag,
and sliver wrapped chocolate hearts.

I have used it to make this Wedding Card
A place setting at a wedding feast.
A tag for a sweetie bag
which was given as a wedding favour.

I am entering it as a set in

So, if the rain stays off
I am off to plant in the garden...

if not....more crafting for me I think!

Crafty Pad # 22 ~ Shine

Its Crafty Pad time again!

This week we are looking for you to

shine!

As in sunshine, shiny cards, metallic or glitter

You may use any stamp,
any embellishments/ribbons/brads etc. :)

If you use a Crafty Pad stamp your
name will be entered twice for the prize.:) :)

If you DO NOT use a Crafty Pad stamp

then your name will be entered once for the prize. :)

The prize is any single Crafty Pad you would like.

So this week all the Crafty Pad team
are all using the Butterfly set.

I have made a sun catcher.
Not the easiest thing to try to photograph though!

I started with felt flowers,
added orange sequins on both sides
to each petal & an orange button to the centre

Beads were knotted on along the fishing line,
I really must ask my dad, how to tie better knots
on fishing line so they look neater!

Using stayzon to stamp the large butterfly
onto acetate and coloured using glass markers.
I used stickels and liquid pearls


It ended up with a nice crackly effect against the sun

I hung a butterfly charm at the bottom
this helps add weight to the sun catcher
and helps it hang straighter.

I hope you come on over & see
what the lovely DT girls have made,
including Pascale who joins us as our guest DT.

Fancy joining in with us this week?
Have you seen Crafty Pad has a sale on too?
