French Dogs




 Despite trying not to buy crafting stuff before we move, I gave in when I spotted a pack of  playing cards featuring different breeds of dogs in a local charity shop - I'm sure I can make a lot of toppers from this £1 bargain buy!


Shame that there is only one picture of each breed in the pack


but it does mean that I can use up some of my large stash of backing papers

Watercolour Wings

 


I bought  the Hunkydory Watercolour Wings topper deck back in August 2019 and I still have quite a few left, so yesterday I dug them out and made these three bird cards - each using a die cut branch and 3 feathers as embellishments.


The date to move house still looks a long way off yet, so I am enjoying time in the craft room whilst trying not to buy new stuff and using up what I have accumulated over the years!

Cards Squared

 

I realised that this set of graduated stitched square dies had been sadly neglected for a while, so decided to make some cards using them. 


it was also a good way of using up some scraps of paper and toppers that had been hanging around waiting for inspiration to strike!
