Bunting etc …

October 12, 2010 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 23 Comments

I love mini bunting and decided that some would add a bit of fun to Sarah’s bulletin board. Last night I cut some paper scraps in shades of red, aqua, and pink. I just need to string them together with some twine and it will be ready.

I bought my Divine Twine from Thimbelanna.

I have also been working on some birthday cards/packaging…

And a gift…..

I have been enjoying a spot of sewing this week, hope to show you what I have been working on soon …

    Hello.
    Could I ask you where you got that beautiful pink plum blossom paper you used for the card and gift bag?
    Thanks,
    Clare

    Sweet bunting – love how it’s mounted on white with a pretty edge – it makes it extra special! I would definately like to try this for my craft room – how will you attatch it to the string? And I can’t wait to see what you’ve got lined up with your sewing…looking forward to it!
