Have you entered the Simply Create Challenge - £100 up for grabs!

Good afternoon fellow crafty bloggers

I posted a while back about Simply Create's fantastic challenge.  Where we have this wonderful mood board to inspire us to create:-

So what you waiting for!!  The great news for the DT is that we can enter too!!! 

I bought this plain wicker heart at my local garden centre so this is how my project started off:-


DA DA! So here is my finished effort:-

(Get me with my "arty" touch with the beads - but it does look soooo pretty though!)

Some more photos for the finer and close up details:-



So after adding all my little hearts, buttons, bows, pearls and flowers I also painted here and there with this gorgeous paint called Opal Dust by Jo Sonja's.  It leaves a gorgeous sparkly effect.  I don't know if you can see it in the photos?

So get your skates on as you have until 14th February to enter...

Happy Crafting

    Sorry Trish.

    My last comment left before I finished .. ... can't wait to get my laptop back .. .. I am sure this keyboard has its keys in different places.

    I was going to finish by saying that I hope you had a good weekend.

    Love Jules xx
