Aspire Crafts on Create & Craft TV...Show times

Hello lovelies, I am really excited to tell you that Aspire Crafts will be on your screens on Create & Craft TV for a Weekender Special this Saturday and Sunday. The show is featuring Deco Ladies, which I have had the absolute pleasure of making samples for. This collection is gorgeous and I have loved working with it. You can do so much with the collection, not only to make cards with but also gifts, tags and even altered art! It is being brought to you at a fantastic price. The show times are Saturday 9am, 12 noon, 6pm. Sunday 11am, 2pm , 6pm. Make sure you tune in and see the rest of the design team samples. Amazing! Here are three of my samples, I will show you some more over the next couple of days. I have painted a canvas, and used various techniques to show how you can make a gorgeous picture from this collection. Also perfect for decorating boxes to give as gifts. Enjoy the shows lots of love Nicola XXX

Christmas Cards

Good evening everyone. I am in the middle of making some Christmas Cards, but just could'nt wait to show you the following three cards. I love Art Deco and these papers are right up my street. The papers I have used came free with Making Cards magazine December issue. Designed by Nancy Watt, they are gorgeous papers.

I have embellished with jewellery that I have decided I don't want to wear anymore or the necklaces are broken...lol...so I have some wire cutters so I can cut bits off the chains lol.

Hope you like these and thanks for looking,

have fun and happy crafting,

love NJ XXX
