The Craft Barn Concertina Challenge



Well here is my contribution to the challenge. Hope you like it. I love making these rosettes, I made our Christmas Crackers using this rosette as decoration, everybody was most impressed.
They are so easy when you get going.

This is my contribution to the Artistic Stamper Sunday Challenge. Just getting into these blog challenges. Here I have used a combination of things, a few leftover grunge letters from my Tim Holtz day, coloured with acrylic paints. The tag is made from mountboard, with a background crackle effect also with acrylic paints and Sheena Douglass inspired daisies., again with acrylic paints. A little freebie craft stamper butterfly stamp completes the picture.

Well I decided to have a go at the Artistic Stamper Blogspot Challenge which is SPRING, so did two attempts and finally decided on this one, all I have to do now is link up, that will be the hard part!!!
