The Squirrel and the Fox “Something Spooled” #48

Good evening crafters! It’s time for another The Squirrel and the Fox challenge.

It’s time for a new challenge here at The Squirrel & The Fox and this fortnight we welcome back Robyn’s Fetish as our sponsor.

USE SOMETHING SPOOLED

Remember, that doesn’t limit you to ribbon. Get crafty with lace, twine and anything else.

Here is my card using a Robyn’s fetish image. My “something spooled” is vintage melon seam binding which you can purchase on my online store

Make A Wish – Star Gazed Card

Good Morning Crafters! I have another card to share with you today. I decided to use one of my mother’s day gifts (that the hubby got me) this morning which was the Star Gazed stamp set from Papertrey Ink. I love their stamp sets and dies. Super great quality. I just fell in love with this set and can’t wait to make a few more cards with this set. I used gold metallic embossing powder and Tim Holts perfect pearls in bronze. I also used a piece of Marigold solid twine for the star  which you can purchase in my online store. Well off to work. Don’t forget to check out V’s Sweet Ideas shop for some amazing prices on your favorite craft supplies!!!!

Happy Father’s Day Card

Good evening crafty crafters! Just wanted to share with you a card I made for father’s day. I really love this image from Tiddlyinks and couldn’t wait to color it in. I even colored his floties the same color as the one my son has. I used DP from MME and copic markers to color him in. For the “Dad” I used thickers and the “Happy father’s day” stamp is from Stampin Up!
