Dolphin Picture


I love this image, even without decoupage it looks as if it is coming at you.

I have put it in a box frame from Tesco!!! I used the 'frame' that came with it and coloured it using brilliance ink pads in shades of blue. Decoupaged 5 layers so that the dolphins are coming over the inner frame and a bit of glitter glue just to hi-light the splashes of water.

Sorry it's not a better picture.

Thanks for looking :O))


50th Birthday Card


This is a card I made for a friend who is now 50 - hahaha

I made an A4 size card 'cause I thought I would rub it in a bit! It is done with 3 backing papers I had in a kit from C & C. The first one is stuck to the card and the other two have been cut into to decoupage the fairy and butterflies.

The letters and words were cut on the Cricut in pink glitter card and black card and, the pink laid slightly off centre to create a shadow effect.

Glitter glue added to bring a bit of bling and ribbons at the top.

Thanks for looking :O))


Better late than never!!!

I know, how naughty am I, 2 months and no blog entry!!! Hangs head in shame.

I have been busy making soap recently. I have to say I have thoroughly enjoyed doing it and my hands are lovely and soft. :O))

First picture on the left shows a rectangle with lavender flowers and scent and the other one is a heart shape (although not clear) with rose petals and fragrance





the next one shows opaque soap, one fraganced with Lavender and one with blue cornflower petals and wild orchid essence











This one is shell shaped soaps moulded into clear soap, fragranced with and ocean breeze aroma and a clear soap with blue cornflower petals












Another heart shaped soap layered with red and white opaque compound














Last but not least, 2 clear bars of soap, one with random opaque soap dropped into it (I really like this effect) and another clear soap with more seashell soaps inside.
