I have just added a whole new batch of items to my shop made with the lovely floral fabrics I bought a short while ago. I’ve currently only made one each in the different floral fabrics below, but please contact me if you want to buy something which has sold and I’ll let you know if I make one especially for you!

These cute little 7cm square cards are made from hearts punched from a selection of glittery, shiny and shimmery card, with floral sequins and bead detailing. They are ideal for gift tags or miniature greeting cards.
These A6 cards are made from layers of lace and tissue paper which was then painted with metallic paints, ink, glitter and PVA glue before adding beads, sequin and ribbon detailing. I stitched the outsides so everything stays together. Every card is unique, of which there are eight.
I caught the moon sneaking over St Barnabas early yesterday morning, plus an interesting shadow of my house as the sun came up behind.
I thoroughly enjoyed designing and making these floral felt brooches. I used my Cuttlebug to cut out a large selection of shapes in various colours, then spent hours layering them up in different ways before coming to a final choice. They were then embellished with embroidery thread, sequins and seed beads.
