Guest Designer for Challenge 89 - Pearls and Lace


Hello and happy Friday

********

Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are happy to introduce
our very talented guest designer

Catherine Carter


Here's a little bit about Catherine:

I'm married with three children and live in
Harrogate, North Yorkshire.
I've been paper crafting and creating now for
around 12 years and found that my style has changed
a lot since I started.

I was a textile student at college and love embroidery.
especially using mixed media products on fabric
and then adding stitching on top.

I like experimenting with inks and stamps and
especially love to create with the vintage style. 
Crafting plays an important role in my daily life and
gives me a chance to use my creative side.
Here's the gorgeous card that Catherine
has made for our current challenge

 Pearls and Lace


This is such a beautiful vintage card
Catherine.  The pearls and lace fit
perfectly with this style don't they?

Your monotone colour scheme along
with the black lacy flower, white bow
and pearls make the perfect finishing touches

We hope that you visit Catherine's blog


Catherine's Craft Corner

to read more about Catherine's lovely card
and how she made it.


It's been a real pleasure Catherine - thank you!

Guest Designer for Challenge 88 - Anything Goes


Hello and happy Friday

********

Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are happy to introduce
our very talented guest designer

Lorraine Lowe

Here's a little bit about Lorraine:

I'm a single parent living in Gloucestershire with my
son James and Jack Russell pup named Jessie.

I am both an avid crafter and animal lover and have
been crafting for several years.  I started off with
decoupage, progressed onto rubber stamping,
which is my true love, then digi images started
to play a part in my card making.

Recently I've taken up crochet again after many
years absence and due to the internet I've been
able to learn tons more than I ever dreamed
possible.  I believe I've added an extra interest
to my day to day crafting


Here's the gorgeous gift set that Lorraine
has made for our current challenge

Anything Goes



This is such a special gift set, Lorraine
You've coloured and shaded your two
images beautifully!


Your crocheted flowers add such
a personal and fun touch to your gift set.

We're looking forward to finding out
what the special gift is inside the box.
We hope you can visit Lorraine's blog

Coldwaters2

to read more about this lovely gift set and
how she made it. You'll be in for a treat
when you take the time to see more
of her work.

It's been a real pleasure Lorraine - thank you!
