Silver Lining !

I have finally found the silver lining .....this last few weeks have been so cold and yuk, but today i have found the good in it, I have had my hubby home for a few days after a tiny operation he had, he is normally a very outdoors guy , if he is home he is normally  pottering around the garden or in one of the many sheds he has!
A combination of the slight discomfort he has, and the weather,  has moved him inside ...YEAH!
This has allowed me time to escape to my little workshop ( which has a lovely fire burning thanks to the afore mentioned hubby) and PLAY. I have had so much fun and have like 3 projects to post...but i wont overload u now u will need to keep a eye out over the next few days to see what has been keeping me busy.

News Flash * After posting this layout last night i decided that it wasnt quiet finished so i went back and tweeked it a little. There are some before and after photos at the end , let me know what u think!

Today's post is a project made from the sketch at sassy lil' sketches , for more information or to check out the sketch pop over here and read all about it.
I followed this sketch pretty closely to come up with this layout.





   I had so much fun making these cherubs,
I stamped , cut , pasted and then covered in glossy accents ! Just love the effect.











The tags are done with shrinky dinks...if u haven't played with them, grab some and have a go.

The finished products ends up about  a third of the size and  quiet a lot thicker, it is hard and shiny.


If you are around my age  you will remember the  chip packets in the oven HEHEHE ...so much fun!
 Well this is just as much fun and a good excuse to return to our childhood AGAIN.

There are so many details on the layout that just don't show real good in the photos , the bottom embossed section with the bling is just one.

Thats one Project down, please stop by tomorrow for my take on the Cas-ual friday Challenge! 
Have a great day all
