Thank you Dawn Grantham.

hello,

...today I have little different post. I want to thank one amazing person.
...to Dawn Grantham from Thyme Graphics ( England )...
 I use for the most of my project Silver Bullet but  I also use Sizzix eclips 2.  
After 5 years with my amazing Silver Bullet without any issues and cutting happily almost every day we had an accident. Big storm in our region and problems with electricity  destroyed something in Silver Bullet ...and I had UPS for protection!
 My also amazing technician here tell me that machine must to go to service. 
I wasn't happy about this. I was affraid to send my machine so away.
I bought my Silver Bullet from "Thyme Graphics" from England and I live in Greece.
So I sended  e-mail with issues and  get to know ( by e-mail ) this 

amazing person - Dawn Grantham.

It was as if he grabbed my arm and led me  and telling me that there is no reason for worring.
He received my machine and in record time repair it and send it to me. 
Now  my Silver Bullet work like new - like always.
So, that was my experience with Dawn Grantham from Thyme Graphics - from England. Thank you very much Dawn for your patience with me. You are amazing  and caring person. 


I  write this because it is not so obvious that  you will know such caring people.
I say this from my personal experience with my Embroidery Machine when after 2 years still company don't know who is resposible for his service. But this is another story ...

Thank you again Dawn Grantham :-)

Christmas window frame

hello,

...winter is already here, Christmas is around the corner and our home decoration is almost done.

When I found these frames at the Bird Svg's, I didn't know what to do first. So many  posibilities. 
Today I have made this Christmas window frame, which is very simple and  certainly not my last. I have discovered that he nicely fills a vacant place on the wall, so I will do them more in the same spirit, but with little changes.  



You can find this pattern  at Bird's Svg's  in collection 





   ...I made the large one...


















Make this window frame is really very simple. All I did was that I made one frame without backround and front  piece and then I made and resized one side once to be more narrow and twice to be same narrow like previous but shorter too. Those three sides I used for inside in window.  The tall in the midlle - horizontal and two smaller pieces vertical left and right, to creat "cross"  inside in window.  I used hot glue.  Then I made front pice - just make cros inside in window wit rectangle shape from scut basic library and united them and that is.

...so, I hope you like my version of this frame. Thank you for your time and wish you creative  weekend...anta :-)

Gingerbread House Advent Calendar


...hello,
...I do not know  as you, but I'm see that the time flies totally relentlessly for me.  Christmas is almost around the corner and I think the time is right for my project ... projects. Besides what I show you today I need four more -   equal (almost) !!!

It is a fantastically Advent calendar that I am completely abducted with it. You can do it in many versions or classic Gingerbread House. The great thing is that it is very simple ... although you need  a little more paper it certainly worth it.
Another thing which I like about it is its drawer and not just cut out, the doors, which are also ok, but sometimes they are tricky for kids when they are pressed into the inside.  So boxes - drawers are completely ideal. Because of that I decided to make a gift to my close ones this amazing Advent Calendar .




This beautiful Gingerbread House is from Bird's SVG's and you can find it here:
    












...I used pearl and ringstone  to open drawers...


...I have not changed anything except numbers on the drawers...





















...so I hope you like it. It is really amazing and I love it. Thank you for your visit and wish you creative and restful weekend...anta :-)
