Oriental Cards

Magic of the Orient!

Oriental Bloom Luxury Card Collection Kit by Hunkydory printed on Adorable Scorable Card.

Below are some quick card examples that I made with this kit.

Every kit comes with detailed instructions on how make up the various cards. 

 The above photo is of the Triple Tier Slider Cards.The photo below is of the Lotus Blossoming Boxes great for concealing a special piece of jewellery for that special wow factor!

The Lantern cards were also fun to make but I think my favourite out of the entire kit were the Lotus Blossoming Boxes.

Have fun and keep crafting!

Piano Card

Playing on my Piano!

Why not make something special this month.

I made this piano above by using a template and instructions given in 'The Tattered Lace' magazine issue 14. I found the instructions easy to follow and was pleased with my first attempt (see picture below). I made this special gift for a pianist acquaintance for her birthday. Needless to say she was very surprised!

You can put chocolates or a little gift under the piano lid. The choice is yours. I placed a chocolate treat wrapped in white tissue paper under mine and then placed white roses and pink daisies around the edges - I did not glue them in place but left them loose so that the recipient could get to her gift. I did glue all the other floral decorations onto the piano - so even when these flowers were removed it would not look bare (see pictures below).

 Finally I made a plain box to fit the piano in and my special gift was finished.  See www.tatteredlace.co.uk for information about the magazine. Keep crafting!
