Knight in Shining Armour


This is another Fabulous design from Sassy Studio Designs...I Just Love it!!! and I have coloured it using my copics. The Grey paper is "Papermania - Capsule Collection" the little bit of pink paper is from my scrap DP's and I have overstamped it using " Hero Arts - Manuscript background"

I have distressed all the edges using my craft knife....first time I have done this! ( I know I am a little slow on the uptake!) I normally tear it or sand think I prefer the results this way...I have done loads of faux stitching..I love real stitching, but it is such a pain to get my sewing machine out so it happens very rarely!

Arn't the little crochet flowers gorgeous!! I got these from the lovely parcel sent to me by Magda!........I have turned my hand to most crafts over the years..probably a case of jack of all trades master of none! But I have never managed to master crochet.....my Dad is amazing, and has tried to teach me many times, but it just never happened...so I am very impressed by these flowers!.....I have popped a few pearls in the centre of the flowers...and there is organza ribbon on there too, its just hard to see on the photo, so you may want to click on it to get a better look!.......and of course what is a damsel in distress without a gorgeous glittery dress...so I had to add stickels!

On a compete tangent on the Strictly show I saw on Saturday..on the last Professional dance Natalie had the most amazing dress, that had lights on it...it was just beautiful..I want one!!!!

  5. Hi Juila

    Running all behind so just had a quick check on what you have been up to, clearly you are in a pink mid this week - must be something to do with Stricly dresses.

    Love the owl down below and I think this one must be Sir Andy with Janice over his knee ?

  13. This is stunning Juls. I love all the little touches like the glitter and the pearls and the flowers. I can crochet, learned a long time ago, but I haven't done it much for ages. Maybe need to get out my crochet hook again.
    Thanks for joining us at TG and good luck.

    Love the image its so "romantic"!! Imagine your dad being a fab crocheter thats fabulous for you!! Love the touch of class the pearls add too....don't suppose you have room to take the sewing machine out and keep it out...? No hassles then when you want to use it!! bx
