For Emily

 Good morning, June has arrived, I wonder what the weather has in store for us this month- May was pretty amazing so fingers crossed we'll get more of the same.

The June Challenge at Stamping Sensations begins today, the optional theme for this month is 

Our Furry Friends, chosen by Anesha ,or you can take part using the Anything Goes option.

There are 2 lovely prizes of Penny Black stamps  from Buddly Crafts  to be won.

It was granddaughter Emily's 11th birthday last month, as part of her gift I decided to give her money as she likes to choose her own clothes now. I made this gift tag and holder to put it in. 

I made the holder first- a simple kraft card, folded down the corner , clipped the edges into curves and decorated with the tartan patterned DP. I added some faux stitching and a chipboard flower, glued the open side and bottom edge

The dog stamp is from Aall & Create, I stamped him to sit on the strips of DP and coloured him with pencils. I thought it looked a bit bare so added the candles- part of the same same stamp set-how lucky that there were 11! I made a tag from kraft to fit inside the holder, adding a pocket cut from the dp. 

As always there is plenty of inspiration from the rest of the team over at Stamping Sensations, so please do head on over to check it out and for full details of how to play along with our challenges.

Thanks for visiting

Happy Sunday

Chris
