First I took some paint chips, and a butterfly punch.....
I stamped some of the butterflies with background stamps to add interest....
Then just added a flight of ombre butterflies to a white background and framed in a simple frame
The house move is back on track, but the legal guys are taking their time, so instead of this Friday, we don't have a definite date yet, maybe two weeks? Maybe three? Who knows.....
But in the meantime, I have lists of lists - enough scraps of paper to wallpaper a room, and I am knee deep in paint colour charts and samples of curtain fabric. So in the near future, I reckon this blog will morph into a home decorating frenzy - there isn't going to be a whole lot of time for cardmaking that's for sure!
I will have a dedicated craft space though - in the new house there is a shed in the garden, one of those pretty sheds painted a pretty duck egg blue and with window boxes. It has light. It has lots of plugs (outlets), It is insulated. It measures 10' x 16' - it is perfect......I think I will make a sign for the door. Any ideas? I am thinking
En's Den...............but one of you will have the perfect sign I'm sure
Ikea, here I come......
See you tomorrow x
A gorgeous project Enfys - I love that idea with the paint strips :-) Good luck with your move (when it finally comes off) and won't it be awesome to have your own craft shed ?!!! :-D

So glad your move is back at least some what in progress ! I look forward to seeing what decorating ideas you come up with. I have my shed in my backyard too the same size . It's also where I homeschool my 3 kids. There are some nice things about it.

Moving is such a lot of work! I hope yours goes smoothly and without incident. I'm looking forward to seeing photos of your craft shed, so I do hope you'll share.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the move and I look forward to seeing the new crafting space - what about calling it The Bug House :D
ReplyDeleteHope En's Den has heat for the winter. That's important , too. But it sounds delightful and I would love to have something like that here. And it is my favorite color, blue.

I tried this technique with paint samples by cutting out tiny trees. Great idea eh?
DeleteI love your butterfly project. Enjoy your new "Scrap Shack"!

How about 'Snug As A Crafty Bug' for your new shed! It's great to have a space that you can just close the door and don't have to tidy up after each crafting session. Good Luck with the house move.
