change of site

I have been having a nightmare with blogger for a long time now. Photos go missing etc etc, so I have decided its time for a change! I can now be found at www.trudiehoward.wordpress.com. As yet there is nothing there but hopefully within a day or two it will be an all singing and dancing page that actually works!!!!! fingers crossed!!!

Here are two more of the fashion decades images from Saturated Canary.

1960

1970

Saturated Canery Fashion Decades Contest 1950

My second fashion decade card is using 1950 from Saturated Canary.

I've used a combination of papers from Santoro, Kaiser craft and my leftover stash to make this layout. The feathers were actually left over after making a corsage for Brenden to give to one of his dates for prom (yeap he had two girls on his arms!!). I teamed these up with some red and black flower and finished off with a sheer bow and a piece of bling!

Saturated Canary Fashion Decades contest. 1940s

When I saw that the lovely Krista from Saturated Canary was doing a fashion decades colouring contest, I knew I would be entering!

This is my card made using the 1940s image.

I teamed her up with the Botanical Tea collection from G45.

I wanted to achieve an afternoon tea look.

There is lots of fussy cutting, cameo cutting and dies used in this.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges
