My first re-vamp / And a card


 Evening my lovely's hope you have all had a good day,
I have been looking at this leather folder it looks like an old 
filofax  I broke of the 2 little bits that hold's the pagers,
I then made a small slit in the padding,

 I used some very wide lace and a smaller one, a feather, and a 
lace flower and a small tea rose, and a little bag charm.


 I cut the lace to the size i wanted, I then glued the lace to the leather 
with hot glue, and then trimmed of the bits I did not need. 

I then added the black lace to frame the white
Then I added the feather and lace flower putting the tea
rose in the centre of  the lace.
Then I added the little pad.



 Hope you liked my Re vamp.

I would like to enter this in the lej designs challenge num 65 Lace



This is a card I made for tsunami rose designs .
I have used Vintage text 8x8 paper which you can get from the
 link above. I added an acetate butterfly
square  added some ribbon a bit of raffia a few gems.
Letting Daisy paper stand out.
  
A big thank you all for stopping by and your wonderful 
comments.

Tried something new

 Evening everyone hope your all having a good weekend
I am in a group on Facebook called UK and Ireland swap group
we have 2 new swaps this week one is make a fan and the other 
is make a cuff.
Now I collect fans and love them so I thought great I can do this
Well lets just say it is so much harder than you think lol
well i was on ebay looking for something and saw a round fan 
and thought that looks easy which it was. I have done a video 
on this which I'll add tomorrow. And all you will need is 
a cereal box papers and 1 chop stick and lace and seam binding. 
 This one I love so loved making it as well I will do a video 
as it took me a long time to make.
 I used the sides of a cereal box lace an embossing folder and gems 
and  a old broach. and chain to make a closer. 

I hope you all like my new makes, A big thank you 
for all stopping by and leaving love/
