Hi Everybody,
Sometime ago I used to make decorative hatpins and add them to my cards. They were very popular and I also sold many in my Etsy shop.
I also made a video on the making of these pins but it really needs up dating now
But I stopped doing a lot of things when Griff died and this was one of them and so I had quite a few of these pins left over.
This week in my clear out I found some that I had made and I decided to add them to my cards again.
Although you may have seen some of these cards before, I am showing them again now that I have added the hatpins to them.
The pins are all nestled into the flowers on the cards and some of them have the safety cap added for protection.
Others I have had to re glue in place and so the sharp end is covered by the glue.
I have colour matched the hatpins to the flowers and they do look really pretty .
What do you think ? Is this your kind of thing or not ?
I like to add all sorts of embellishments to my designs and so these really are my style
I know that my cards are too fussy for some people but many many more like them and that is what keeps me going.
I love the flowery feminine feel to them and the pins just add that little extra.
I have so many beads and silver accessories that I will be making some more and adding them to future cards.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
