thistle thank you





Dearest Minions,

If there is a language of flowers - can there be flower swear words and insults?

try it on Tuesday - this is a gift

Dearest minions,

This is my entry to Try it on Tuesday which this week is an altered something that can given as a gift. So I went all steampunk funk on a blank book box. The book plate was filled with watch cogs and pieces, I then filled the space with glossy accents to hold them in place.

boxed in

Dearest Minions,


Had great fun making these boxes, mainly due to the mess. The blank boxes were gesso'd then covered in painted and stamped tissue paper and then a delish Tim Holtz book plate was plonked on top.

celebrate with dancing girls


Dearest Minions,

It was so hot on Monday, that I had to be fanned by pretty minions armed with endless jugs of Pimms with REEEEAAAAALLLLY long straws. Then it rained, biblically on Tuesday, Bury St Edmunds made the papers and internet due to surface flooding. But it has been great weather again, soooo here to celebrate the heat are two show girl cards. The stamps are lost coast - the ladies and Tim Holtz Papillion- backgrounds.



I used the versamark distress technique from the July Edition of craft stamper demonstrated by the great Joanne Wardle.

Tootles my sweaty Friends!
