You Make Me Smile Card

29/3/16



This is an A5 card which was layered with pearlised paper, onto which I placed a circle of white card. I then die cut a Tattered Lace  Over The Edge die twice in the same pearlised paper, to form a circle and placed this on top of the white card. I then cut squares of black and white card and layered these over the die cut circle. I then used a variety of die cut flowers, not only to put onto the white square to make my own topper, but also to use as floral embellishments round the topper. I then finished off with a stamped sentiment and stamped dragonflies and a bow which was made using the bowmaker from Tattered Lace.



Decorated Bottle


29/3/16




This was made using an old whiskey bottle which I covered in black tissue paper. Then added some die cut shapes from Tattered Lace, which I coloured using glitter gel pens.  Stuck on using PVA glue and then I spray varnished with 2 coats.
 Then I wound some gold coloured wire round the neck of the bottle, but this could easily be some cord or some coloured thread.

I hope that you like this project which is easy to do, but looks very effective.  I hope that you will try to make this using not only bottle but jars also.
