Crafty Collages

Collages I created for Cristina Re Designer Stationery. These were for the Silk Road Collection catalogue/Creative Ideas Book. I actually designed the Harlequin Rose reversible paper too - that's the argyle pattern seen most clearly in the bottom right collage.

Rosy Rosettes

I really like these layered rosettes I've seen on scrapbooking lately (Studio Calico Looking Glass Alice Add-on, Two Peas in a Bucket Frosty Aqua Lollipops). I also saw something similar on a dress a few months back. So I had a go at making some, and put brooch pins on the back.
This is the first brooch I made. I used bits of fabric that I already had - satin, cotton, organza, plain, patterned, floral... I was pretty happy with it! The cute flower buttons are from Spotlight.
