Lets Craft and Create: Challenge #153 ANYTHING GOES + (OPTION) 'Thank You'

Fabulous weather,  summer is on its way here in New Zealand.  

The spring flowers are out and the bees are working hard . 

And yes it is time for the November challenge from 'Lets Craft and Create'

My creation this month are 'Thank you' cards using lavender from my garden. 

I love the fact that although I have used real flowers, 

rather than dying these will dry and still look as great. 

 Firstly I made mini bouquets of lavenders with tissue paper and twine

 I used one of my fav 'Thanks' stamps from Stampin up 

 Here are a couple more photos

Hope you like the cards, remember there is nothing like receiving 'Thanks you' flowers

even when they are mini bunches.

I look forward to seeing your creation

Happy crafting 

DO-AL(L) Creatives challenge #35 - : Anything but a card

This month I have started a Recipe journal for a friend, 
 which I hope to have complete before Christmas. 

Our DO-AL(L) Creatives challenge sponsor for this month is; 

Simon Says Stamp!

Now for the recipe journal I will be sharing some of my favourite recipes.

I made the entire journal from my stash of papers. 
I embellished the cover 

and used my trusty Zutter to bind the pages.

Added some ribbon to the binding.

and I will slow add recipes and photos 

Hope you like it. 

I look forward to see your creations - remember anything but a card. 

Happy crafting
