A circus wagon

Well, 2013. brand new and undestroyed! Let us take care of that year and make it the best year ever! :) I will put focus at the small och good stuff and turn my back at the annoying things.

Today I'll show you a circus wagon, here is the tutorial. My lovely friend Erica has anoyher friend named Maria who recently gave birth to a child. "Make something that will fit Maria" was the order from Erica. Maria is a circus performer so this wagon is just perfect for her. :) The wagon is around 25cm long and 20cm high and took several hours to do. ;)

I have used different kind of roses, rosebuds, sweetheart cherryblossoms, lilies, twine, scalloped pearls, brads, charms and laces. All the material and much more is to find at Wild Orchid Crafts!

Dont forget to check out the WOC-blog and the Challenge-blog with new challenges every second monday! :)

Have a really nice day!

T'was the night before Christmas

Good morning Flower fans!  It is Kylie here to share with you just a little more Christmas crafting.

In keeping with our current challenge, I have made some gift wrap for a little pressie for a friend of mine. The stamp is a background scene from Magnolia.

It was so simple to make and so much fun to embellish with terrific Wild Orchid Crafts products.

Sneak Peek – New products on sale Thursday 9th June

I have a sneak peek for you today of  new products from Wild Orchid Crafts (these go on sale tomorrow).  The stamp is from the new release from Lili of the Valley that goes on sale on 14th June.

New to WOC is the stunning Raffia Ribbon and the “antique look” charms – I have used two different butterflies on this card.  The raffia ribbon comes quite compressed but I unrolled it to give a crinkled vintage look which I must say I love!!  It’s so easy to work with too and because it is essentially paper it shapes beautifully and stays put.

 

The sentiment is also from Lili of the Valley’s Clear Additions range.  The lace, pearls, button and flowers are also from Wild Orchid Crafts – Trellis rose, cherry blossoms, 20mm roses, 15mm roses, 10mm roses, 4mm rose buds.
