Diamond Wedding

I can't believe my Mum and Dad have been married for 60 years and they still hold hands when they're out walking. How special to live a lifetime with one person and still tell , every day how much they love each other.

Here's my first attempt with Alcohol Inks and Grunge paper flowers on an old tin of mints. Great fun! I'm now on the look out for anything made of tin that I can alter

Got all inspired when I saw a little house at the SECC in Glasgow....so I took a photo and couldn't wait to have a "play". I decorated the turquoise paper to use as a background and sponged on plenty of Tim Holtz Distress Ink. I loved the final effect. xx

Had a great day yesterday at the papercraft and stitches fair at the SECC in Glasgow. Lots of yummy "things" to spend my pennies on, and I certainly spent a few pennies, lol.

I had a lovely surprise when I went to the Fiskars stand (I had replied to an email prior to going to the fair telling them which fair and day I would be there). I announced I was a Fiskarette and the girl there handed me a bag, for FREE. I couldn't believe when I looked in and found :-

Fiskars

Paper Edgers - Scallop wide

Imperial Corner Art punch

Embossing stencil set
