Calla Lillies for candles.

Hi and welcome.

Today I am sharing some gorgeous Calla Lillies I made for a candle for a funeral and a memorial candle.

I wouldn't normally post anything to do with this type of work but I love making these Lillies so much I just thought I could share the actual flowers.

These are so so easy to make. I use Silk Foam so there was no heating needed all I had to do was cut the shape, I used a template I had drawn onto a heavy card and cut out then traced around using something sharp. Then I cut the shapes and started to shape them I thin the edges of the shape by rolling them and then using a ball tool I shaped an indent into the base of the flower shape then just rolled the edges of the flower. I made the stamen using wire and white florists tape that I then colored using a soft pastel from 14 Craft Bar.

Here are the flowers.

Don't forget to call over to the 14 Craft Bar Inspiration Blog to find out what the other ladies on the DT have come up with.

Birthday Card with removable clip.

Hi and welcome.

Today I am sharing with you a card I made for a little girl in my daughters pre school class who shares the same birthday as my daughter. 

I am sorry for the terrible photos, the card had been given to Kalina when I discovered the quality. I used beautiful Lemoncraft papers from 14 Craft Bar and used the Rosy Dot die that was designed by the 14 Craft Bar blog coordinator Emilia. I bought it ages ago and forgot to use it!! I used the gorgeous pink Silk Foam and using the new soft pastels from 14 Craft Bar I colored the tips of the flowers, the edges of my torn paper, the chipboard element and also used a wet wipe to smear some on the base card too. When I had put the whole card together I then used the Liquarel watercolors in Magenta and White to add some splashes.
