Altered Cd.

Altered CD that I made today.

Altered Cd.

This altered CD was made for my latest swap with Suze.

ATCs.

I have just recently got back into the swing of things, after a long time out from doing any crafts. I have been tracing my family history which can be very time consuming. I have been doing this for nearly three years, and, while it can be very rewarding, it can be very painstaking also, as any one doing the same will know. I do a regular swap with my sister in law Suze, and here are four ATCs that I have sent to her.

ATC size folding Teddy Bears.

These are fun little ATC sized teddy bears. The first one is shown folded, then they are all shown open.

Altered CD.

my first altered CD.

Spring gothic arch.

Here is my Spring arch for this weeks challenge on Gothic arches. I did the background a dark green, though it looks brown in the picture, with a glittery effect on top. The small arch was covered with yellow tissue paper and has a fine white and gold braid round it. Some narcissus flowers were then added, then a fairy, wearing a daffodil hat.

Mother and Child gothic arch.

Here is my arch for this weeks Gothic challange and a great theme it is too. I have ink padded my arch brown. The inner arch is bleached black card, with pink and lilac paint dabbed onto it, with gold braid for the trim.
