A is for Acetate

Dottie's World challenge this week was set by Nicola. She said:

A is for Acetate with a hint of pink!!

It can be a whole acetate card,an aperture of acetate,an embelishment as long as Acetate is there some where & as October is Breast Cancer awareness month I'd like to see some pink!!!

I stamped some acetate and cut the letters and corners, then stuck them on by using my Xyron 150 sticker maker. I added pink ribbon, Imaginisce blooms, brads and ink round the edge and of course a Dottie and George image. I'm turning this into an A4 birthday postcard for someone next year.

Thanks for looking. Love and hugs,

Time to Craft, Save and Shop

I was given this gorgeous clock as a thank you for helping my cousin's son in his shop while he was at an appointment. I hve put it above my craft desk. Originally the wording underneath it was stuck on my wall (using white tac) as individual letters, but when I took them off, some of the paint came with them! So, instead of being able to have the words go round the clock as planned, I made a sign to cover the mess.

The letters and butterflies are die-cut on my Xyron Personal Cutting System. The red card is from The Paper Mill and the cream and black card is from stash. To outline the items, I used a black brush marker.

I am busy saving my pennies (and pounds if I have them) to go to Ally Pally in September. I realised that I needed something to keep it all in, so I made this.

I used a cheese football tub I had from Christmas and decorated it using:

K & Co's Hannah Scrap Pad To Go
Prima Flowers (both from CCC)

Diamond Stickles

Fibres from stash

Now all I've got to do is keep saving, so I can shop till I drop!
