I made this card for one of my beautiful friends. Last week she sent me a parcel filled with 8 jars of Flower Soft, a DVD and some templates. I couldn't believe it when I opened it!!!!. I wanted to make Jo a special card to show her just how much she is appreciated.
INGREDIENTS
WHITE & PURPLE LINEN CARD
SENTIMENT STAMP BY PAPER MAKEUP
GORGEOUS EMBOSSING FOLDER FROM STAMPIN UP
FLOWERS, HAT PIN & SILVER METAL CORNERS FROM WILD ORCHID
STRING OF FAUX PEARLS FROM EBAY
CRUSHED PURPLE RIBBON FROM THE LITTLE BOUTIQUE ON ETSY
I would like to show you what an amazingly talented lady Jo is by sharing with you some of her work. This is an extract from Jo's blog;
"I have been sewing since a child and love to craft and create, mainly using fabrics (but I do like to dabble!).

"I have been sewing since a child and love to craft and create, mainly using fabrics (but I do like to dabble!).
I make my own patterns (often through trial and error!) and love to make my items using a mixture of modern and vintage fabrics, both new and recycled, which, I feel, compliment any shabby chic / country cottage interior.
Here are some examples of my creations:
Jo sells her beautiful design's on EBAY & FOLKSY and you can find out more through Jo's blog "MILLIE AND ME" & through "MILLY AND ME" FACEBOOK. You can also email Jo on millyandme@googlemail.com. There are so many more designs so go check out the links above. Jo truly is an amazing lady and I have lots of her gorgeous makes here at home, I think I may be slightly addicted to her gorgeous designs!!!!.
I would also like to say a big thank you for everyone's kind messages, texts and emails wishing me well. I am so lucky to have such a caring bunch of friends and you all keep me going when things get rough.
Big hugs Clare xxxx

Absolutely beautiful card hun - you make such lovely cards. I still have the one you made for me on an easel to look out when crafting. Love the look of Jo's beautiful pieces and hope to buy in future. Keep warm and well Karen x
ReplyDeleteOh I had to comment on this post above them all...you have a little of everything! I would love to sit and craft with you! LOL All you have made is so lovely, really like your stuffed animals. I did Rabbits for awhile, and made beautiful dresses and hats for them. So much fun! Our stories are similar and if not for crafting, well, you know! You are a very talented lady. My best to you, Miss Clare.

ps I live in the country and have much wildlife. I think it wonderful that you are so dedicated to caring for animals. We have the most beautiful red cardinals that hang out in our yard with theirs wives, love the contrast they make against the green. It puts me in awe to see them. xxxooo hugs!
