It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Christmas is approaching fast!

I am normally more organised when it comes to presents and things, but this year I think it will be a bit of a mad rush.

The one thing I did want to achieve before Christmas this year was to make my Kaisercraft star wreath.

It has been sitting and waiting for a very long time to be made, and for the last few Christmases I have vowed to make it.

So I finally got motivated on the weekend and put it together.

Here is the end result

I didn't want to use the traditional red, green and white for my wreath, so I went with whites, creams and greys instead.

The papers are from Delish Designs Dulwich collection along with some gorgeous flocked paper.

I painted a few chipboard stars white and covered them in glitter glue. I also die cut a few little snowflakes from pearl paper to sprinkle around the place.

I had some Pink Paislee Parisian Element brackets sitting on my desk, so I had to find a place for them on my wreath.

I used cotton gauze all over and around the wreath and added it as a bow for a finishing touch..

I hope you like my little Christmas Wreath. 

I had forgotten how fun it was to make OTP projects.

Who knows I might even do some more in the near future.

Until next time

Time for an update!

Hi everyone

Sorry for being a very, very bad blogger.

I have had so many things going on in the background and life can just get a little bit hectic.  

So sadly my poor little blog has been very neglected, but I am back today to update it.

Yay!!

Let's start by showing you this months kits over at Lime Tart.

Full Tart

A la Tarte

The Half Tart has already sold out, but there will be a new one soon with December just around the corner.

I had a play with the A la Tarte this month.

Here are a couple of my projects.

To see all of my projects and the rest of the teams outstanding work, be sure to head over to the Lime Tart Gallery to check them all out.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

I will be back soon.

Lime Tart October Gallery

Hi everyone.

The Lime Tart October Gallery is now up and available for your viewing pleasure.

I had a break from kits this month so I don't have a great deal to share with you unfortunately. 

I can show you this card which I made with papers from the A la Tarte and the ching-chou kuik stamp, Dream of Dahlia  from Sweet Pea Stamps.

So if you are in need of inspiration, have a look at what the rest of team created with their kits this month.  The October Gallery is full of beautiful creations.  

I hope you have had a most fabulous week.

Tiddly Inks Tuesday

Another Tuesday has rolled around, which means it is time for the next Tiddly Inks Challenge.

This week the challenge is:

Boys will be boys- Snake, snails and puppy dog tails.

I struggled to say the very least.

It took all my might to create a boy card and not use pretty things.

You may notice though that I couldn't resist using my liquid pearls, but they were blue so I told myself it was okay lol.

For this card I used Hi There-Boy and Steampunk Papers - Extra Goodies.

If you want to participate in this challenge and see some amazing inspiration, check out the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog for all the details.

Thanks for joining me on this fabulous Tuesday.

Sweet Saturday

Hello everyone.

This week on the Lime Tart blog it was my turn to do a step by step. 

I decided (after much deliberation), to make a CD Gift card. 

Fill the CD/DVD with photos or home movies and it is a perfect gift to send to those loved ones interstate. 

Here is the cover

The stamp is  Sweet Pea Stamps - ching-chou kuik's Dream of  Dahlia.
Those pretty papers are from the October Half Tart.

Here is what the inside looks like.

And finally a photo with the CD in the pocket.

If you want to make this at home, pop on over to the Lime Tart blog to get all the steps.

I hope you are having a great weekend.
