Good morning mon petit champignons. Hope you are all fine and dandy.
Hope that you enjoyed John's shows last night and are watching today too.
I am typing this at silly o'clock scheduling for Friday as its been a busy day with meeting up with John for lunch and handing over samples and then sorting out my delivery of his new goodies and then the website.......So, you'll be happy to hear its short and sweet lol!!!
Now, this had to be my favourite sample I made. Its called "Shake and Shine" as its a shaker card and has a little surprise for the shine element.
Ingredients
White card
Silver mirror card
JND Holly and Ivy die (sentiment and small ivy in the shaker)
JND Swirl Ivy Leaves dies
Nellie Snellen Holly die
CE Falling Snow embossing folder
Red satin ribbon
Red gems
Diamante brooch (coming to my website shortly)
Miniature string lights
For the shaker, I used the small ivy and the larger ones with the leaves snipped off. As the mirror card has a white back, I glued the opposing leaves together, then snipped them so that they were mirror both sides..........hope that makes sense lol!!!
The brooch embelishment can be removed to actaully use as a brooch.
I will be popping them on the website in the next few days............if I can bear not to keep them for myself lol!!!
Don't know if its been shown on the show yet as I have to catch up with the 8pm show from yesterday.
And here it is with the lights switchwd on..........................
Luckily, I had more than one set of lights as the lovely Lily Puss, who had been sat quietly on my craft room window ledge, decided when I was rummaging through my dies, to chew through the string I had on the desk. She also chewed through one of my samples...............we don't call her Lily Savage for nothing lol!!!
That's me for now.
Enjoy the shows.
TTFN

Morning Ang, oh this card is just so beautiful, and with the lights on even more so. The silver, red and white is a prefect combination. I am sure Lily was not very popular. Have a good day everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteMorning Ang, oh my word what can I say, this sample is absolutely stunning, I can't wait to have a play with the new collection when they arrive - you have done John proud with this one and the lights too, oh I want to make this, now I wonder where you got the lights from??
ReplyDeleteStay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

ReplyDeleteThis card is amazing. Love it. Your samples on John's shows on Hochanda were awesome. Great crafting. Naughty pussy cat chewing your string of lights and especially one of your card samples. Sounds like time out from your craft room for Lily. Bad pussy cat!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful samples you made for John! These two were my favorites.
ReplyDeleteBarbara was giving Lily the benefit of the situation. I think she knew what she was doing.
Have a fabulous weekend,
