Wedding Time xx

 Happy Monday lovelies

Hope this wee post finds you all well? Have you been enjoying the sunshine? It’s been lovely to have some heat and see Mr Sunshine instead of snow showers. We managed to get to away for the first time in 8 months, crazy that it’s been so long since we were at the caravan! Luckily there was no damage for it not being in winter mood and only the bedding needed washed 

Today I’m sharing something a little special


This here was a little labour of love as not only was the first Wedding Box in ages, it was for my brother and his wife!!


I give you Mr and Mrs Shand
Look how absolutely happy they both look, what a day they had eventually!

Here is some more pictures of the box up close



  



  



I used the lush Butterfly Kisses papers from Dovecraft that you can find over at Craft Label. I inked white card for the base to give a distressed look also adding to the other layered to match. The lovely the little butterfly is a die from the same set that I layered up to give a different look. I used some die-cuts and pictures of the couple as well as lots of Mulberry Flowers.

Of course you can see instead of a cake in the middle we have a Cheese Cake Tower lol as this was what they were having on the day instead of a cake I knew I had to add it here! I cut box shapes from white card and coloured them with my Spectrum Noirs to add all the cheese detail


I'm so pleased they eventually got to have their day, even if it wasn't't what they originally wanted it was still one very magically day! Plus their dog Bruce even managed to get involved 

Well I best get some work done, even tho I just want to sit in the sunshine! Theses Christmas makes (yip I said the C word) won't get made themselves!

Until next time take care

40th Birthday Bow Card xx


 Happy Saturday lovelies

How are we all doing?? Hope you are keeping well and enjoy the sunshine we have been having?? We've had some snow showers and horrible winds but the sun keeps putting through so I can't complain

Today I want to share a little card I made for a super Special person


my gorgeous BESTIE Ellie
this lovely lady turns 40 today and since I can't be with her I can show the world how amazing she is! 

We both live far from each other but are always there for one another even with the distance! She has a hell of time recently but has come out STRONGER and BRAVER than ever before! Plus she's got a heart of gold and would give anyone her last Role lol just not the last of the tea!!

Love ya to bits peaped and we'll celebrate together soon

On to her wee card, using both our favourite colours too Purple and Green


I created a Bow Card using the lush new Dovecraft papers Butterfly Kisses along with the Butterfly Die from the range
I added lots of Mulberry Flowers, gems, ribbon and lots of glitter to make it sparkle




I loved creating this and just knew the colours were perfect for Ellie plus all the butterflies and gems!

You can find more of the Butterfly Kisses range over at the Craft Label along with all you're other crafty necessities or just because!

Well off to get more work done and drink tea to celebrate my bestie!
Happy 40th Birthday Ellie

Take care and stay safe until next time
