Sugar Creek Hollow.......


Afternoon peeps, this week has been a whirl and I've been so bad for not getting round to visit my fave blogs and thank you for your lovely comments,I had a phone call at 6:00am yesterday morning as my mum wasn't feeling very well, shes 83 and still lives on her own, and has no intention of moving but its such a worry when shes ill so I dashed round before going to work.
Hopefully you will all have a lovely long weekend, I'm working this Monday but will manage to get a few days off towards the end of the next week.
Well onto this weeks challenge at Sugar Creek Hollow, the theme this week is .....FATHERS DAY, so we want to see you VINTAGE,SHABBY CHIC OR PRIMATIVE cards.


I have used the new Crafty Individuals stamp CI348 with vintage menu and wine bottles, the ones on the menu I have stamped onto Shrink plastic, colouring in the images with Promarkers before shrinking..........love this stuff as it curls and flips and then miraculously it turns out as a minature bottle. I created the frame for the image by stamping 4 borders colouring them in and then adding crackle glaze on the top. The bottle top with the sentiment in I added glossy accents and then sprinkled gold glitter in for a smidge of bling.

Frilly and Funky.....Kraft and twine.
Divas by Design.....anything goes.
