AYLI Embellishment

Hello everyone thank you for paying a visit.

I am here with my inspiration for the new challenge at


the theme is "Favourite Embellishment"

I love enamel dots. They come in pretty much every colour under the sun and are flatter than pearls so don't leave a dent in the envelope.




 I am still using my stash and found this lovely Woodware birdy and sentiment (Its so old I couldn't find it but there is a similar set here). I knew the kind of colours I wanted to use so found some enamel dots and cardstock scraps first, trimmed them to fit the A5 card and then embossed them using one of my many embossing folders. Then I found the right colour Promarkers and coloured the sweet little bird.

It's a wonder I am here at all. My blogging has been seriously curtailed as my poor old laptop died. I have welcomed a new one into my life but found that I couldn't comment using my blogspot profile, had changed my password and didn't save it...oh my life, what a nightmare!! I am not clever enough to do it on my phone nor was I able to on my tablet. Thankfully (family) IT support helped out so I am playing catch up now and getting to know my new tech.

Thank you for allowing me to let off steam!! I hope that you are all well and that you are tempted to join us with you favourite embellishment.

See you soon xx

  2. Love those shades of green and blue and your colouring is wonderful. Sorry you had probs but glad it is sorted now. BTW the Woodware Love stamp you used, I managed to find one on ebay - suppose it will be next year now before I use it!

  3. Just love the colour palette Sarah and looks so good on this layout with the panels and birdie.

    Pleased you got your new lappy sorted, like you just can't do on phone, but likewise with lappy/tables, keyboard not dodgy finger friendly, I'm still in the dark ages with a desktop, mind you do love my new imac.

  7. Gorgeous colour palette and cute bird stamp. Sounds like you've had a nightmare with tech equipment - you have my sympathies.
    Came over to comment on your Allsorts post, but can't see it! Probably due to your mischievous new laptop! xxx
