MAGICAL CRAFTS CHALLENGE # 15

Challenge #15 is a colour challenge, WHITE, BLACK AND ONE MORE COLOUR.

Different shades of your chosen colour is fine and you can use different colours for skin tones and hair colour.
This week we are sponsored by One Stop Card Crafts The prize is a £10 Gift Voucher to spend in the store.  The wonderful Shelley is also very kindly offering all our followers and entrants at Magical Crafts 10% discount at the One Stop Card Crafts Store for the duration of this challenge the code to be applied with your order is MCFC10

The colour I chose to use for this challenge is GREEN.  I recycled an old Christmas bottle gift box which had been lying in my craft room for a year or two just waiting to be altered and used again. The paper I used is good old wrapping paper from Paper Tiger. I made up some flowers using pale and darker green petals and a black gem in the middle. The bird is cut out using an Ellison die called Bird With Vine. The paper is a very black green it does have texture to it but it does not show up in the photo. I finished off by using black cross grain ribbon from my craft stash. 

I hope you will pop on over to the Magical Crafts Challenge Blog and have a look at what all the other DT ladies have created for this challenge they really have pulled out all the stops and remember if you choose to visit the One Stop Card Crafts store you will get that fabulous 10% discount!

Thank you for taking the time to visit my wee blog.

EMPTY WHISKY CARTON



OH got a lovely bottle of Whisky for Christmas he was throwing out the carton the bottle came in so I decided to alter it to put some bit's and pieces in. As the weather has been horrible and cold I decided to bring a hint of spring to my craft room. I have made the carton nice and bright with lots of lovely sunny colours.
