Standing underneath...

Rosie's new challenge on CM&LI this week, but what...

Having looked around the blogosphere I found a fab design here. Mine is no where near as precise as I was running out of time. But I had fun. Paper was a bargain one from Dunelm sale last year ? Grandma's Kitchen Stack? Cardstock was all Papermania. Used label and pennant dies from spellbinders. Two magnolia images coloured with PMs . Sentiment was a swapped image one. The thread was Sew Easy. The button dies were Nellie Snellen, I think.

I enjoyed this but would like to do it again with more time to play.



I am making my February journal page at the mo and have gone with a flap! We will see if this works or not. Can't believe where January has gone, can you? Craftathon 2012 this Friday so I have much to look forward to. Catch you all later in the week. Thanks for stopping by. Xxxx

Wheels

Kathy set us the challenge Wheels, for our Sunday challenge on the CM&Li site. It has taken me a while to get this ATC sorted for work reasons. Never mind. After stamping, DIing, crackle painting, adding more DI and gel medium and a TH cog and a Darkroom Door word Block stamp I finally finished it a week later!



Thanks Kathy, had lots of messy fun. Hugs Cherry XXX

366 Journal Page: January 2012

Over at The Kathryn Wheel the very (I'm not worthy) Kate Crane shares her wonderful work. I have followed her blog for a while and marvelled at her calendar/journal page layouts. Thought I would have a go. It's not perfect in many ways but I am happy I have actually done a page and am keeping it up to date.



The journal I work in is a bit small. The page is not quite how I envisaged it. There is not enough stamping on it. BUT I made it and it's a start.

Hopefully, I'll get better at this as the months pass. Do pop over to Kate's amazing blog and see her work and see the other creative calendars appearing for this year. Hugs Cherry XXx. Three posts in one day! Unheard of, I know lol. Xxxxx

Sketch Saturday

The lovely Purple Princess, Kathy, has set our sketch challenge over at CM&LI this week. Triple image too. It is lovely and gorgeous creations are appearing with speed over there.

I needed a new home card for some friends. I've gone for a freebie CS image and put it with a new stamp one of the Darkroom Door WordBlocks. Added a little card in green and DI in Shabby Shutter/ Peeled Paint. A few pieces of card candy and a Kraft card. I think it will do.



Thanks for stopping by. Thanks to Kathy for a great sketch too. Xxxx
