Creative Bits Sketch Giveaway.

As part of the 1st year celebrations for Creative Bits - we are having a giveaway!!  How would like to have the opportunity to receive this package of sweet doily delights, lace trims and twine??

 Here's what you need to do:  create a scrapbook LO using this sketch that I've designed - you can interpret the sketch anyway, meaning you can rotate it if you wish.  It's a simple sketch, so that leaves room for adding in lots of goodies - I'd love to see some hand-made items and idea's!  But it's not a requirement.  Just use the sketch and have fun with it. 
Please be a follower of my blog too, so you can keep up to date with new items coming into the shop and creative idea's from my blog.

 Here's my sample for this sketch:

 Using some more cute pics of my little one!!   I've used pattern papers from October Afternoon.  In the BG I've used a large BG stamp from Stampin'Up - Woodgrain and then stitched around this with the sewing machine.  I'm really enjoying getting out my stamps and adding little bits to my LO's.
Here's some close-up's of the details:

 Here I've used the Fiskars Grass Border punch and attached a mushroom button from the Chip-Chop Shop.  The cut-out of the little vintage boy is some fabric from my stash.

 We have a honey pot tree designed by Leeann Pearce from Stuff 2 Scrap - I've coloured in some parts, sponged the edges and then added some buttons.

 Here I've got a white doily, then added a ruffled heart made from an old dictionary and added in a small owl button.

The title is some foam letters - you can also see how I've double layered the picture and curled the edges - have added this detail into the sketch too.

I hope I've inspired you to join in with this fun sketch and giveaway. 

Sketch closes 17th March - please leave a link to your creation in the comment section.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what you create and choosing a winner. 
Thanks for coming by and happy crafting.

A WINNER.

I want to thank everyone for taking the time to leave a comment for my Etsy Store Giveaway - they were lovely to read and it was nice to see a few new faces come by.

Simply cards and creative bits - GIVEAWAY!!

Simply cards and creative bits - that's the name of my Etsy store which I've been enjoying for the past three months.  It feels like my house is constantly covered in doilies and fabric - no sooner I clean it up, I find some more treasures to start creating with.  All my embellishments are made from recycled fabrics and re-purposed crochet doilies and table-cloths.  Thankfully, I have a very supportive husband and kids who love what I do - my oldest boy even helps me cut out doilies!  And they love seeing what I create with the fabrics and doilies that I find.  I'm amazed by the many different patterns of these crochet delights - and I love finding vintage fabrics for my fabric layered flowers.
I have made these embellishments with scrapbooking in mind, but there are many other ways to use them too. Patchwork pillows and cushions, hair accessories - there are so many talented people out there and they create amazing things!
I have been enjoying a little sucess too - I really didn't know what to expect when I opened it and if I would even make some sales.  But I'm happy to say that I have made a little over 30 sales - so thank you to my wonderful customers.  I've even had a few custom orders - which I'm more than happy to do.  If there's anything that you LOVE, let me know and I'd be happy to help you out.
So in saying all that, I'd like to have a little GIVEAWAY, in celebration of my little shop.
Here's the goodies you will recieve:

* Fabric flowers
* Fabric covered buttons
* Mini doilies - rainbow
* Doily delights - rainbow
* Crochet trim - white and watermelon red

All you need to do is leave me a comment - let me know what you think of these embellishments and your favourite items in the shop.  And if you are one of my Followers, I will add an extra gift!! A winner will be drawn on Monday, 26th April.

Pop on over to my shop, I've just uploaded a couple of new items.  I look forward to reading your comments.
