I mentioned that there was some excitement in the air and so there is. I have just been appointed to lead the Crafty Creations Card Group at the Community Center in Caloundra. It has been very ably run by Vicki Wright for the last 8 years and she will be sadly missed, big shoes to fill.
As this has come about a bit faster than I had envisioned, (which is why I missed last Monday’s Blog) I have created a shaker card that symbolises the “shaking up of things” and as the ladies enjoy a cuppa the lovely tea pot from the Cup and Kettle Framelits Die seemed perfect.
I must confess Nicol Tugurl posted one similar on Pinterest
The ladies were all very creative with their cards and enjoyed the challenge. They could see that the image needed a background that had some life but not too busy as in the reverse of this DSP. It is lovely but not the best way of showcasing the teapot.
I love the way the spout fills up as you tip the card back and forth. The “tea” is just glitter from the $2.00 shop. Silver, gold and bronze mixed.
If you check back at a later date I will have posted the tutorial. Thank you for stopping bye.
