Crafty Individuals......


Ohhhh I'm so excited about this months challenge at Crafty Individuals why I hear you ask......well Jean asked me to pick the theme for this month challenge and also to select the five winners. The theme I have chosen is A Summers Ball, I thought this would be a little bit different and give everyone plenty of scope ......think glamour, chandeliers, dance music.The challenge ties in very nicely with a fan that I made for Jean.....my way of saying thank you to her. I was inspired by Laura Carson who made a fan for Alpha Stamps and she also has lots of fabbie tutorials on her blog.I have used various papers, stamps and embellishments all from Crafty Individualsfor each of the fan pieces.

crystal beads strung for the tassel


Back of the fan, embossed with silver using CI-116

This is amazing! It's straight out of a Victorian novel with elegant ladies flirting with handsome gents at a ball! Thanks for the link, I must have a go myself (though it won't be this beautiful, that's for sure!)
