All sorts of everything...

Hi there ...
I've been beavering away lately (we still have rain here) ... and I have a few things to show you ... a few things still to finish ... and a whole heap of things going around in my head! 
Yesterday I showed you the card I made for Joanne's birthday ... well I made a box to match and filled it with bath cream, hand lotion, body mousse and shower cream ... I should have photographed it before I sealed it but anyway I thought you'd like to see ...




So that's me ready for her party tomorrow ... she's invited a lot of her special needs friends and her tutors so I just hope they all come ...
I 've also got a little card I did for another friend ... told you I had a lot of birthdays and anniversaries this month ... lost count myself at how many now ...



This is an opening card but I made it into a tag shape ... printed some papers and stitched them on ...


I also adhered a butterfly charm to a felt butterfly for added effect.

And lastly ... I saw a brilliant tutorial for a 'suitcase' posted by the very clever Clare Buswell which you can find Here ..
Well, I just had to try this (I don't have any foam board so I used thick card from some packaging I had) now ... I did this late last night so maybe it isn't that perfect ... I keep telling myself not to craft when I am tired but hey ho ... 


I made mine with the handle on the top ... digital papers used again...




I really can't believe how much I can fit in this ... which has given me so many ideas ... so I'm off to create some more .... 
Till soon

Ros
