Hi guys , second post for me today, but i wanted to share these wonderful Christmas decoupage makes with you.

these are all Anita's Attic by  
today im going to share the ones i would consider cuties, i also have some that i think are traditional , so ill be sharing them another day soon.

ok here we go 





now come on how adorable are they! the cardsare all 6x6, and iv tried to match the colours for the backing and embelishments with the decoupage,which i have to say is a dream to work with , just pop out of the sheet perfectly and make the most wonderful pics.

so why not get your christams started nice and early, get to your local do crafts stockist and grab yourself some sheets and get busy , its never too early you know

hello lovely peeps 
all over the weekend i was playing with some wonderful
goodies this is one card i made using the Do Crafts 250 g bag of assorted buttons.
the backing paper is from the Capsule collection, Midnight blush
such an elegant colour paper collection
this is an 8x8 card which is simple yet interesting i think.
once i had placed all the buttons i stuck them down then highlighted a few with some Crystal stickles, the giant button at the bas i just threaded with a ribbon and tied a bow, and at the top i layered 3 buttons for interest.
i hope you like it, i have used this as a bit of tuesday inspiration over at 
if you want lots more inspirations pop over there and look at all the fantastic projects by the design team.

Hi everyone there is some fabulous inspiration over at
Here is my make
I had a plain cream blind and wanted to liven it up , my kitchen is painted a soft mushroom colour so I thought mushrooms would look good.
A Google search came up with the wonderful old illustrations, i loved this one so saved it to my comp took it into My Craft Studio and changed to the size that would look nice on the blinds.
Next I printed them onto some t shirt print paper, and fussy cut around them.
Ok that was the easy peas bit.....
Next I lay the blinds on the floor on some folded bath towels, and began to iron  the mushrooms on.
Took a bit of time and was  little tricky but this is the result.
 I really like it .
Then a friend sent me one of those DIY clocks, so of course I had to make it to match the blind,
I started by painting the clock base with white acrylic, then onto this I layered some tissue paper that I had printed with a muted beige pattern, next I sized printed and fussy cut the same mushroom and stuck it down, finally I used some fancy buttons as the numbers, then the whole thing has been sealed with Deco Mache to make it ok for a kitchen,  of almost forgot I covered the back with pattern paper and also sealed.

Here it is



So hope these inspire you , don't forget to pop over to the blog for more inspiration
from the other girls.
