Clarity challenge 19 th May 2016

Here is my May entry for the Clarity challenge.  We ve been on holiday for all of May so far so not been able to give this as much time as I would have liked.

I have chosen to enter this card which was inspired by one I saw done by the lovely Emma Burns.

I am still very inexperienced with the finer points of parchment e.g. White work but this was a better attempt than my two previous ones!  I wanted to frame her and I liked the lily border plate.

Hope you like it too.

May calendar challenge

May 2nd

Here is my May entry for this challenge.  The great thing about the calendar is that you know what's coming up each month and having been really late with last months I made both together! So this month I am mega early as a result.

I enjoyed making this and adding the cockerels with the double sided sticky square made it very easy.

I now have the beginnings of a gallery in my down stairs loo! The canvas board lends itself to this. 

Also I have discovered this amazing hanging system courtesy of my daughter and her boyfriend.  It's perfect as it doesn't show and is removable! Here is the link..... Sorry can t work out how to enable you to click on it direct!

And hanging with the commander hanging strips ( see below)

Genius!
