Oh yes another Hop - I love Blog Hops!
You will have just arrived from Debbie William's blog, but if you haven't and you are starting here ... don't worry ... hops are a circle ... you can hop on and off where you choose. Now if you'd like to win some blog candy all you need to do is to leave a comment on all the blogs in the hop (16 in total) and then email the organiser Sharlene Torres and let her know that's what you have done - so simple!
Mother's Day for me happens in March (three weeks before Easter) .... being an English chick that's just what happens ... but ... being an Aussie chick too (thank goodness you can't hear me speak - lol), Mum did say that she'd quite like having two Mother's Days so perhaps Mother's Day in May will become more normal for me I think.
Having just achieved a recent promotion, I was able to get the Big Shot for FREE - yes FREE - excited is an understatement.
I've used the Top Cut die to make a little bag. I used this last night as a prize for a workshop - the ladies loved it. It is so simple to make.
Then I have cut two Top Notes (at the same time) and ran the Very Vintage wheel over them in Soft Suede. A little Melon Mambo Vintage Vogue flower with a little centre in Soft Suede and a brad, the little bag was almost complete.
I used the Hostess Level 1 set, Best Yet to create a tag, punched with the large oval, scallop oval and wide oval, this is a quick and easy way to add a sentiment. I've attached it to the Melon Mambo Polka Dot ribbon handles with a little piece of Linen Thread ... finished off with a little bit of sponging with the Soft Suede ink .. perfect. Here's a little sketch to show you the dimensions for making the little box inside ...
