Odds and Ends II

Some more Cosmo Cricket Odds and Ends projects for Artful Crafts. This time I went with a cerise and turquoise colour palette.

The fresh, clean colours on this card look so yummy. I couldn't resist staging it on a plate with a spoon for photography. The little candy swirls and baker's twine all come together to form what looks like a delectable desert to me.



This went out to Kim and to Toni


Beautiful crochet mats form the bases of these tag. My friend Jessi sent me a bunch all the way from Canada. They work perfectly with the trademark circles from the Odds and Ends collection. If you're keen to make a mat, hop over to her blog where she has a tutorial for it.

This is the twin to my Faith tag. It features another elegant cameo from Dusty Attic. On her, I applied a subtle niagara mist chalk and dressed her chignon with half pearls. Then I wrapped a jaunty green scarf round her neck. To fancy up the tag, I sewed little french knots inside the half-circles of the border.




I'm satisfied these projects showed off the versatility of Odds and Ends. Combined it with Upcycle chipboards, it takes on a retro feel. When paired with Dusty Attic cameos, it becomes classic and elegant.

Linking up to these parties.
