During the summer last year we found a really old wooden ladder hidden in the under growth at the end of our garden. It was very cool with pieces of old metal hardware on it and all. I was determined to use it in the garden somehow. It was very rotten but still very strong. Not putting body weight on it strong mind you! So I varnished it to seal it from the elements more and hung it on the wall over a newly built flower bed and small patio area. (Note-newly built flower bed, hence not much growth from the plants in it!!) I then hung some pots with ferns from the ladder and called it done
The garden is a constant work in progress but at least this little section is looking cute! I am linking this up to Funky Junk Interiors link party where it is all about ladders!!
Its time for another challenge over at Sentimental Sundays. Our theme is Feel the Love – you need to create something for Valentine’s day or some one you love. Make sure to include a sentiment as always. We are sponsored this week by Little Darlings stamps.
I created a very inky grungy card for my challenge. I created a inky background in shades of red and die cut a heart from red card. I used the heart as a mask and inked around it on three different paces on the card. I then stamped my sentiment numerous times on the heart and then adhered it to the card with foam for added dimension.
I was asked to create a Harry Potter themed birthday card the other day. I have never read or seen Harry Potter (shocking I know!) so I went off and found a Harry Potter style digi, looked up some Harry Potter images for an idea of colours and off I went. I used the Harry Digital Stamp image from SimplyB stamps. I printed it on watercolour paper and coloured it with distress inks. I added some star patterned paper and some sparkly flourishes and a star and called it done! Hopefully the recipient - apparently a huge Harry Potter fan – likes it!
