A Wallflower Obsession...

Hi folks...I can't believe it's Saturday already...I'm girding my loins for the busiest day of the show...today's the day that busloads of eager beaver crafty folks descend on The NEC from far and wide determined to spend their pennies on loads of crafty stash...making a quick trip to the loo or to grab a coffee into an Olympic elbows out...excuse me expedition.
But it's also the day that us Fiskars girls kick up our heels on a night out...my gorgeous bestest buds Hina and Rachel...
will be leading me wildly astray no doubt on what is fast becoming a twice yearly tradition...a visit to our favourite carvery for a great big nosh up...a liquid refreshment or two and a good old "set the world to rights" natter.
But back to the crafty stuff and another little "playtime" project I made with what is currently my favourite Tim Holtz papers...the Wallflower Paper Stash has become a bit of an obsession..who would have thought that Tim would go down the floral route but hey I'm so glad he did....it's absolutely gorgeous...true TH Vintage Style floral gorgeous.




And I'm entering this little project for the Vintage Journey Challenge 2 - Say It With Words hosted by my lovely buddy Alison affectionately known as Butterfly
Toodle-oo for now
See you all tomorrow
Hugs Kath xxx

    Been having huge internet problems.... Kath, this is a stunning piece, I was unsure about the papers but seeing this has changed my mind completely! Your layering is superb and I love how you introduced that stencilling - absolutely brilliant. You should consider entering this into the wonderful Alison's challenge at A Vintage Journey? Hope today goes well and have fun tonight! Hugs, Anne xx

    So pretty, I thought the colours might be a bit grungy being from Tim but they are lovely and you have made a beautiful vintage hanging with them.
