Anniversary Card


My daughter asked me to make her a card for their first anniversary
I picked a pre- coloured image from Charmed Crafts
This was simply mounted onto red card and some scraps added at the back
Finished with 3 red heart brads and a sentiment

I'm glad you're riding next to me 
even if I am shouting
"Look out! Look out!" half the time.

Wedding Shoes

I slowly covered them to make them sparkle

Wedding Latterns


For my daughters wedding last year I decorated lanterns
I used these as the table decorations and also the table numbers
I used the same love heart tree we used on the invitations
Cut it out of purple vinyl with their names and the dates 
This was place on two sides
On the other sides I put the numbers for the tables
Finally I finished the top with some curled ribbons
They are battery power so where safe to use around children.
We were also pleased we had them as we had a couple of short power cuts 
whilst at the reception and they gave out a lovely light that the ate the cake by

Birthday Glasses

They are both very into their Disney stuff
I brought the cutting files from a store one Etsy
The used my bits of left over vinyl to cut the shapes
Finally I attached them to the wine glasses
The brother scan and cut is perfect for this sort of thing
as I was able to load the mat up with all the bits of odd shaped vinyl 
in the different colours and scan the mat in 
so I could then move the shapes to fit
