here is my contribution to this weeks thursday night project on Crafter...oo
i've been feeling very "creative" lately and got some dressmaking patterns very cheap at the charity shop - i've been using them to make packaging{images on flickr} and brooches, i love the aged look to the tissue . . . . so many uses!

Love the brooches! Nice swap stuff too.
Thank you for mentioning me and the items look lovely in your pictures.
I love the buttons - I saw once how to make them - wonder where that was??
Your new title picture is fab too - I have a couple of these blocks in a box somewhere!!
love the new title pic! its fab... and that heart brooch is georgeous.. how did you make it? if you don't mind me asking? as I have been trying to figure out how to make a vintage book paper brooch of some sort....only of many millions of projects that probably wont get done.
I love those brooches, especially the heart.
Thanks for visiting my blog...it meant I've been able to find your lovely one! :-)
Your forget-me-not brooch is gorgeous and I love the printing blocks header!
