Cinco De Mayo

Cinco De Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrated this time of month. As a member of "We Love To Send A RAK" on Paper Craft Planet, we have been given the theme to of using the vibrant colours of Cinco De Mayo and where given two little characters to use. We had to make a card and to decorate the envelope to, here is what I made.

May ATC Swap

I've signed up to the May ATC swap over on Cardz n Scrapz. The theme is Oriental and I was really stuck as to what to do. Then I thought to pop in Oriental into Google Images and saw this beautiful eye staring back at me. Here is what I came up with, looking forward to swapping and seeing what I get in return.

A RAK I received

I signed up to do a RAK Swap over on Life On The {Scrap} Beach and my partner Nishi sent me over such a wonderful RAK. I've put full photos of everything over on the page My Life My Lens. But here is a key ring that she sent me and I just love the sentiment on it.

Nishi also sent me this beautiful card

which reads

My Wish For You

May you find clarity and clam

to a world no-one understands.

May your pain and sorrow

motivate you to walk tall

and face new challenges

with braveness and optimism.

May you come to know

that there are people around

who share love and understanding

especially when you feel deserted.

May your eyes open

to see the good in others

so that you can uncover

the joy locked in every day.

May an inspiring word,

a tender loving touch

and jubilant laughter

be yours....every day!

May all this rub off on others

and be reciprocated in abundance.

.....And may love embrace you

wherever you may go.

Altered Canvas

Here is a canvas that I made so OH would have something small to hand his mum next week.

Altered Tag

I have signed up to do a RAK swap over on Life's On The {Scrap} Beach. Part of the swap was to send a tag and here is the one I'm sending my partner. I've never done a tag before and so didn't really know what to do. I hope she likes it.

Cardz N Scrapz March Challenge

Alicia set the craft challenge over on Cardz n Scrapz this month. The theme is vintage and you have to have distressing and tearing oh yeah and feathers in the entry. I decided to make another tealight candle card. Here's my entry.
