Sugar Sugar Challenge


Well over at "The Sugar Bowl" there is not 1 but 2 challenges on the go... the 2nd one is under the "Sugar Sugar" tutorial & this month it focuses on paper beads..
Finally I have gotten around to uploading something using paper beads... normally I make bracelets etc as they are ideal for children as they can't get hurt from them & if they lose them so what no big deal it was only paper afterall....
Alas I decided to use them on a card for a change as a hanging embellishment & I quite like it so quess what you may well be seeing more of in the future....
Gayle & the DT really have got this blog off to a fantastic start & they deserve a huge round of applause....
Don't forget only 2 days left to enter my blog candy .
Well off to see what other challenges are on the agenda for today so in the meantime, happy crafting & I'll be back soon.

  5. Hi Lorraine! I just found your blog again from a post you left on Allison's and I'm so glad as I didn't ever put your blog in my favourites then lost track of you. I hope you're well and happy new year to you. Your card is gorgeous and those hanging paper beads are wonderful. Chris x
