Comfy Sofa 3D Project–Creations by AR

I know we all like to be prepared for special events, Fathers day is in June and normally lands right on my Father in Laws Birthday so it is always a double whammy for me that month two cards two gifts for the same man. I like to get organised as soon as possible for it and this template just ticked all the boxes for him.

Comfy Sofa from Creations by AR 

I had quite a bit of fun making this one and deciding colours and extra bits to add when finished.

The back of the chair and arm rest covers are an edged ribbon.

The cushion is also ribbon folded and padded inside with a piece of wadding.

Now I know you will all want to know where I got the miniature TV remote control and the miniature coffee mug from no?

Well I made them from polymer clay, it was a labour of love. I got a starter pack from Wholeport 

Then there is the miniature News Paper, it was a printable for a dolls house found at Jims Miniatures.

 

Now if all of that isn’t enough it even has a secret compartment for you to add a gift.

A pull out box from the front of the chair.

Add some treats inside the box and you are ready to go.

Cards from Create and Craft Show

I thought I should pop a couple of cards on here from last weeks Create and Craft show it was all great fun and lovely to get so many emails whilst on air.

Both cards are from the Best of La Pashe 2012 CD and you can still get both the Just Inklined and the LaPashe CDs at a knock down price until Thursday this week from here

and the inside Ohh la la!

and then a none funny one.

New Release Creations by AR–Lollipot and Bow

Oh this is so exciting, this is the cutest project, so many possibilities I know it worked perfectly for Valentines day but it would also work for Easter if you filled it with chicks or mini eggs (chocolate variety), Birthdays, Christmas etc etc… I love working with Creations by AR 

I used red, white and black for my colour ways, (Think Minnie Mouse)

It is a fun inexpensive gift that is sure to please, who would have thought a lollipop colour be so fun to give.

Birdseye view of what is side, A big lolli and some chocolate hearts.

LolliPot is available here

Its Bow Easy is available here

Now go and get inspired by the rest of the team.

Thanks Jak. You can also click on the image and then go to the menu at the top of your menu bar - PICTURE TOOLS and by clicking this it will show you exactly how big your image is - shown under SIZE (Often at the end of your menu bar depending how you have customised your Word set up).
Secondly you can also highlight your image by clicking it, and then click on PICTURE TOOLS find WRAP TEXT then click SQUARE in the drop down box and you can move your image anywhere on the page and it will stay there.

Just Inklined to Hop–Out of the Box

Here we are again with our first Monthly Blog Hop this year for Just Inklined,

Joyce is host this month and Out of the Box is the theme and that is where you should have started.

You should have landed on my blog from Tangii if not got to the very beginning as I know the girls have all worked hard to bring you something special.

I have used the new Chrysanthemum set from Just Inklined for my image and used all three digital images to make a corner image.

I used a cream card to print out the image then used FlexMarkers in Sunflower, Canary and Buttercup for the blossoms and Herb Green and Pear Green for the leaves.

I printed the image twice and layered up some of the blossoms like decoupage to give it a 3 dimensional appearance.

 

I let some of the petals go outside of the square cut out shape so it was Out of the Box for our theme.

I finished my card with a pretty silk cream bow and a ribbon slider from Mei Flower 

Now hop over to Lori as I know she has something special ready to show you and remember to leave comments on all of the blogs as we always have spot prizes from the comments left.

Video Blooper of Jack–Grandson

Are you ready for a good giggle? oh my word, they say in filming you should never work with Animals or Children, I think I now understand why.

I was trying to show you a video of Jack raising his Eyebrows as he has just found out that he can do this, it then turned in to him pulling faces and then this happened. I think this one needs keeping to show future girlfriends ha,ha,ha!
