Word Perfect

I have been working with the new stamp Word Perfect (ref: 1803160a) from Dimension stamps, it is just fantastic and just so versatile.

Here are the cards I came up with

 
For details on how they were made click here or click on "Alphabets and all things wordy" on the right hand side.

Other examples of cards made using these stamps can be found on the Dimension stamps blog or visit Craftyroo.blogspot.com for some "different" ideas!

Wine Cosy???

I am really not sure what you would call this, it is almost like a teapot cosy but for a wine glass so Wine cosy kinda fits (apols if there is an actual name!)


To make I cut circles out of felt both slighty bigger than the wine glass base. One of the circles I cut in half then sewed along the cut edges (I used a zig zag stitch). Once these edges were sewn, I sewed the two halves to the whole circle. I used The Occasional Orchid (ref: 2400066a) stamp from Dimension Stamps to create the Orchid. I then glued this to the Wine.

Now I just need the wine........
