Engagement Card ♥

My friend's beautiful daughter has become engaged to a wonderful guy and this is the engagement card I made for them....
The pics of the bunnies came from some vintage wrapping paper that was once owned by a neighbour of the daughter's grandparents.

Pink Climbing Roses....Happy Birthday Card

A pretty paper napkin with pink, climbing roses was just right for the card. I stencilled the wording and added some prisma glitter to the centre of the flowers and a pink sparkly dragonfly. The texture of the card feels like linen and the colours are soft and subdued.

Lace, Pearls, Buttons and Flowers.....Tiny Wall Hanging

I used some sweet loveheart buttons, half-pearls, scraps of vintage wrapping paper and pink lace to make this tiny wall hanging. It measures 6cm x 6cm and it is mounted on lightweight foam.

Little Sewing Book for Needles

 I have made another little sewing book with paper patchwork on the front.
It is very handy to have it in your handbag if you need to do a quick repair.


I stencilled a pretty floral design on the inside cover. For the purpose of the photo I used purple thread but white would be the most practical...

Nostalgic Happy Birthday Card

https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/LinLovesPaper
In my paper stash, I have some sweet vintage wrapping paper and I used some for part of the card. The girl is reminiscent of Holly Hobbie, but she isn't, although they both have adorable bonnets. I have lots more of the paper so I am making a little notebook to match the card.

Butterflies and Sparkly Flowers.....Stitched Little Notebook

 I am still using my pretty butterfly napkins to cover my little notebooks.
 Inside, I have added some sweet little stickers that I made and used a mauve thread to stitch the top of the pages together. I used soft pink paper and there are 8 pages.
This is the back of the notebook...it was hard deciding which was to be the front, but the butterflies won!!
