Stamped Image Challenge for Crafts Beautiful Forum and Creative Inspirations

Happy Saturday everyone!

I have made another photo hanger for a present, along with a bag charm, and decided to enter them (along with the card in my previous post) in a challenge on the Crafts Beautiful Forum, which is to make three items using the same stamp.

The stamp I have used is Queen Charlotte from Whiff of Joy. The papers I have used for the photo hanger are Kay and Co. I stamped Charlotte onto shrink plastic and coloured her with Sakura Stardust pens for the bag charm.

I'm also going to enter the photo hanger in this week's Creative Inspirations challenge, which is feminine - I think this is definitely a feminine project!

I hope you like my pieces - thanks for looking. And enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Love, Andrea xx

Bracelet for My Daughter

Hello folks! My post today is to show a bracelet I have made for my daughter - I made it for a funky jewellery challenge over on the Crafts Beautiful forum. I made the felt beads - they are strips of felt wrapped around a cocktail stick, and then wrapped with embroidery thread, and then with a string of seed beads fastened around. I do think the red beads I have used are a bit small - I'm on the lookout for some larger ones - then I'll have another go, and maybe make a matching necklace. PS - I can't take credit for the idea - I saw it in one of my Mum's People's Friend magazines a couple of months ago.

I'm also showing a photo of my daughter on her first day at school - she started last week!! And then I thought I'd better include a photo of my son too!
