Hello friends! Today I wanted to show you some of the creations that have kept me busy lately, enjoy! This first picture is some parchment I have worked on using my clarity groovi system.

Thank you for spending some of your day with me! Crafty hugs Ellie  x

To finish up, I found some co ordinating gems and ephemera. I ad...

This is going to be the centre point on the front of some more tags. These are the generic ones to be used year round. I used my 'wink of Stella clear glitter pen on top of the jellyfish image. It's so sparkly but I don't think the camera has really picked it up. Everyone needs a glitter pen like this, I love mine. The stamp set used on this centre piece is 'so jelly by lawn fawn and 'tiny sayings ' by Lawn fawn also. Such cute little sets. Yesterday I recieved my order from Anna Marie designs. This was my trees to finish off my advent calendar. So I have painted them with green acrylic paint. This step was incredibly messy, I don't know how but I ended out with paint on my neck, face and clothes. Once painted and dry, I applied Super thick slap it on ( Indigoblu)...
