Peony Wreath Silhouette Portrait

As I said I have been making so many 3d projects and I think this Peony wreath is amongst my favourites, it is another Jamie Moore Cripps design which can be found in the Silhouette Store.

I added some hessian and some additional foliage to the design, and used some distress inks to give it some extra character.

Little Chapel

As this week was all about resting I decided to create some projects with my Silhouette Portrait, I cut out during the day and glued on an evening whilst watching TV.

I started with this cute little Chapel.

Chaple1

Of course I had to use printable acetate and create some stained glass windows.

I used the cosmic shimmer glue to stick it all together as it has a very good grab an it is quick drying too.

I popped in some fairy lights and left the roof unstuck as I thought it would make a pretty Easter gift box.

Chaple2

I’ve a good few projects to show you but thought that this would be a lovely one to start with.

Spring has Flower burst with Couture.

It has took me some time to get this together, little bits here and there when I was feeling well enough but with the help of Hunkydory Adorable Scorable and Glitter Glaze card stock, My Silhoutte Portrait and the Couture Flower Burst die collection I got there in the end.

Flowerburst1

Even the center flower was made using the Flower Burst die collection.

I figured you might like to know that the flower was made using a couple of the reflection set dies.

Songbird Collection

Today I should have been at Create and Craft with the Couture Collection cutting dies but unfortunately I ended up quite poorly with an underarm abscess and had to have surgery on Monday.

I had planned to do this project as one of my demo’s and had all of the pieces cut out so I’ve put it together to show you here.

The 6 sided milk carton box was made from a 4 sided template I had but it worked out pretty good after a little alteration, the songbird collect was used, this is the reflection dies.

As you can see it makes the perfect gift box.

Don’t forget the Couture collection are on special offer buy one and get one free if you are a member of the Create and Craft Club, this is a mahousive saving.
