Wedding celebrations and birthday gifts!

Sorry it's been a while! I have been really busy, still getting set up actually.

Just wanted to show a couple of paper projects I have worked on lately. Both utilised slightly different methods so here goes!

Roxannes' 21st birthday! (my little sis :] )

Remember a few posts back, the jewellery storage frame? I said I would make one for my sisters 21st and I did! It's a much smaller version, I made it specifically for earrings and I also bought her a lovely pair from Accessorize to go with it

I found inspiration from a wrought iron panel and made her a paper cutting for her birthday card;

Steve and Chantelles' wedding;

I hand made this wedding card using 2 different methods of paper craft; paper cutting for the main piece and for the inside of the dress I used iris folding.

Unfortunately I had to work that evening, so I didn't get to attend the reception. At least the card shows I had thought of them :)

Anyway, just a quick one this evening, very tired and have a busy and long day tomorrow!
