I saw a Tri-fold on SplitCoast Stampers.com and loved it but was worried it would be a real faff!
However thanks to a great tutorial HEREthe card was made in no time at all!!
It's so funky!!
So then out came the decorating bit!!
Out came my Cosmo Cricket Early Bird which is so retro and cool- I LURVE it!!!
I used my Retro Cowgirls which I stamped onto Cosmo Cricket paper to give them patterned clothes!
H is for Heart! Thanks Gail!

So it's June and I'm Miss June for Bombshell Stamps Woo-Hoo!!!
This is one of those £2 Ikea mirrors BOMBSHELLED!!!
First of all I covered the mirror with torn pages from an old book.
I used a wet glue to stick the pages on as they were quite furry!
I daubed on Purple and lilac Distress Inks.
The moisture from the glue made the inks run and spread into each other giving a nice soft effect.
When dry I used a black ink pad to stamp the Moth and Cherry Blossom all over the frame.
I cutout 'BOMBSHELL' using QuicKutz Eliza font and glittered it with Distress glitter for a vintage look.
I added Prima flowers, Crystal swirls and lace to the mirror.
Finally I stamped, coloured and cut out my bombshells and attached them to my mirror, pride of place!
I have WON a prize on on the Hero Arts blog- I'm so excited to be chosen!!!!!
My Bottled sunshine card won a prize in the Hero Arts/ QuicKutz competition-WOW!!!
It's amazing that with just a hairbrush and a gallon of de-tangler spray the feral child or Miss Acorn could be teased and tamed and transform into this beauty!!
Thanks to the ladies on ebay who's stores provided the lovely outfit I bless you for always!!!
06/06/09 and it's a most glittery day for ol' me today!!
Thanks to all my pals for their lovely birthday wishes - I've had a lovely day- been very spoilt! Currently sitting here with a nice cold glass of beer (beautiful new glass from Sally) my new Snoopy t-shirt from my 'DH' and babies and a pretty windchime tinkling over head (thanks Lorraine!).
HAve a great evening everyone and remember there are still a few hours to enter the Bombshell stamp challenge being run by Kathi and Gabby's sketch challenge runs until the 21st of June!
....and bagsey no returns!!! YAY it's June and it's a beautiful day today. I love June as it's my birthday month (that number just keeps getting bigger each year without any signs of me growing up yet!) and it's the SUMMERTIME!!! For those of us in the UK the weather is an obsession but then you never know what it's going to do one minute to the next *grins* It is a GORGEOUS sunny day again here in Middlesham with the promise of temps upto 27 degrees- amazing stuff!!
