Sprinkles of Kraft!

I'm just about getting this blogged in time for the Waltzing Mouse challenge this week - I blame having to wait for the glue to dry!

Anyway, its for the Waltzing Mouse challenge - the sketch to follow is below. I've used papers from the very new and lovely Polkadoodles cd - A Double Sprinkle of Kraft. Which, as you've probably guessed is based around kraft card / paper and the various textures and colours.

I've used two of the papers from the cd plus some brads from my stash, garden twine and I've also made the scrunched up grungy flower.


And here is a close up of said flower. I've cut various sized circles with my nesties and then sprayed both sides with water, scrunched up then left on kitchen towel to dry overnight then pinned the layers together with a brad and then scrunched up again. Really simple! And it made lovely colours on the kitchen towel too!

Watch out for more from the cd in the very near future - if you like Kraft then you will love this cd!

Three Hearts

I won a gift certificate for Fred, She Said as part of the Digital Tuesday blog hop a few weeks ago, and although I had heard of Fred, She Said, never looked into it. Anyway, I choose the images I wanted and here is one of them! I've used the pre coloured version (because there were lots of pretty colours!) of Patience the Angel. I've layered her dress and that's about it! All the papers I have used are from Funky Hand (various collections) and just random bits in my bits box.


It fits the Waltzing Mouse challenge which is a new one to me - I found it whilst blog hopping and not got a clue how I found it! And get me for being so quick off the mark!! Actually, I'd already made the card and then realised it was a perfect fit for the Waltzing Mouse sketch for this week. Now all I need to know is the lottery numbers.....!!

I've added some faux stitching and a few seed beads on the bunting. The embroidery thread is also from my stash. This is such a lovely image and as I have lots of different colours that are pre coloured, you'll probably see more of Patience!
