Vittra at her favourite spot

Our darling Vittra has a favourite spot back and her grandparents. It's a big pillow that her grandmother has made. Vittra both plays and sleeps in it. :) Here she's taking a nap with the best ball in the world right beside her. :)

All the material is to find at Wild Orchid Crafts, of course!

Blue...Buttons...Birds!!!!

Welcome to our happy place where we can show you some of the ways we have used the marvelous products from the Wild Orchid Crafts shop. We hope you will want to come by each day for a visit!!

This is my card for the current Wild Orchid Challenge and for this fortnight we are asking you to use...BLUE, BUTTONS, and BIRDS on your creations. As always, there is a lovely prize from the shop at Wild Orchid Crafts for some lucky participant...so we hope you will come on over and join in with us this time!!!

For my card I used a darling Bildmalarna image colored with Copics and Promarkers, adding a touch of silver Wink of Stella for the disc player and headphones. The base and all double matting is Bazzill and the DP is from the Maja Life In The Country paper pad. The two pearl buttons on the left corners are from my stash and all other embellishments are from the Wild Orchid Crafts shop:

Vintage Seam Binding

Decorative Metal Corners

Mixed Bird Metal Embellishments

Self-Adhesive Pearls

Curly Wild Rose

Tuscany Roses

Tuscany Rosebuds

White Mulberry Paper Rose Leaves

For the vertical I used the white vintage seam binding and tied it into a triple flat bow to anchor the bird charm which I painted flat white. I also painted the metal corners white before adding the self-adhesive pearls.

Thank you so much for your visit and we hope to see you again real soon! Until the next time, big hugs from Jacque!!

Dance!

Hello fellow crafters!! I hope you had a lovely Easter weekend. Mine was spent doing my very favorite thing, spending time with family.

I made this card for the Papertake Weekly White + One Challenge. I figured, if I could only pick one color…it would have to be purple, right? So, white + purple, it is.

I have chosen one of my all time favorite Lili of the Valley images, Little Ballerina. I just think she looks like she’s really enjoying herself, so I added a sentiment printed on my computer. I also tucked in a little Party Time sentiment from Lili of the Valley’s Simply Sophisticated set.

A bit of glitter for her toe shoes and hearts.

Pearl Spray, Daffodil, Tea Rose, Open Rose, Cottage Rose, Lily

Cosmos Daisy, Self Adhesive Pearl

Beautiful Maja Designs papers

I hope you enjoy your weekend!!

I have a thing for shoes...

If I would point for a weakness about me it's definitely about shoes. High heels and a lot of glitter, thats the thing! Every year, my sister Lisa, gives me a shoe of glass and they all have the place of honor in my Christmas Tree. It's beginning to be a pretty nice collection now. :)

I actually won a sketch challenge wis this layout. :) Ulrika had drawn the sketch. Yay me! :D
