Country View Crafts Challenge - Spring

The Country View Crafts Challenge theme for April 2016  is "Spring". This is entry number 1.

I used a selection of die cut flower shapes and fashioned them into daffodils and narcissi. The stems were made from wooden bbq skewers covered in green florists tape. I used florist foam pushed into an old candle jar to make a small vase and decorated it in striped paper and added a simple bow.

Country View Craft Challenge - Industrial

The Country View Crafts Challenge theme for March 2016  is "Industrial". This is entry number 1

I used a mdf (working) clock kit from Candy Box Crafts and covered it in brick effect paper from Kaisercraft.I then went to town with lots of industrial looking metal and die cut embellishments.The faux copper piping was made from some large drinking straws painted with Indigo Blue copper paint. Was really pleased with how this turned out, not my usual style at all!
