Beautiful creations.
I love the box and I like to use the brooch on a box to.
Gr Elly

Sammy said...

Utterly stunning projects by the DT! Every single one of them is incredible!
I think I would make something for my mother, not a card, but some other project she can display in her house (she already has several, she's my official guinea pig whenever I want to try something new! lol). I'd be tempted to make a jewellery box for her lovely vintage pieces (passed down for several generations).

Thank you for the chance to win the pretties! x

downrightcrafty said...

oh I am in memory box production heaven at the moment and these gorgeous pretties would simple add that final finishing touch to my current gorgeous vintage book, a true keepsake piece
Hugs Kate x

Gayle's Crafty Blog said...

WOW !!! so gorgeous...all of them..I think I would use it on a trinket/jewellery box too..something that would have pride of place on a dresser and always on display..wonderful giveaway as always xx

Unknown said...

I really like the stocking idea, but I think i would use it to decorate a plain candle holder that I have bought my gran for Christmas. The colours are divine and the brooch is just the perfect amount of bling.

Ik zou zelf een kaart gaan maken van deze prachtige kleuren. Dat heb ik eerder ook al gedaan.
Groetjes Janie

Wendy L said...

Stunning creations by the DT.
I thin I would either make a very special wedding card, because they are always kept, or, a keepsake box for myself. xxx

Sharon said...

Fab goodies, thanks for the chance of winning.
My first thought was a wedding card but I do like the idea with the stocking...

Bea said...

andri. said...

I would make them into card:)

Paper Profusion said...

First I would gaze at them for quite a while!! I think they would match perfectly with the peachy hues in 'Ladies Diary' papers by G45 so they would be sublime on an altered box. Have to say the DTs work is BEAUTIFUL!

Pic on sidebar Mary - thank-you for generosity and chance to win.

Linda Levoir said...

Oh my goodness, what a fab giveaway! I would love to win these. I would use them to make some cards, there's too much to just use on one, but I have a 50th Anniversary card to make and would start with that one, but they're so beautiful it will be hard to not hoard them lol. The DT creations are all stunning and showcase the items to perfection. :) xx

Berina RGA said...

I would love to use them on a jewellery project I have in mind :) Amazing projects by the DT..

Catherine said...

WOW ! This is totally gorgeous ! What a treat it would be to receive your wonderful goodies ! I would use them to decorate a vintage gift bag ! Hugs, blessings and love from Catherine

This would definitely have to go on a vintage style card or a lovely piece of altered art, maybe a gift box for my Mum for christmas.
Lovely giveaway and thanks for the chance to win.

KraftyKoolKat said...

These goodies are just gorgeous. I would stroke them for a few days I think but then have to think who I like or love enough to make something quite vintage that they hopefully would love and admire. I do occasionally get upset if I have to give something away that I love and adore. It would have to be someone that I see regularly so I could carry on seeing it. Lol!!!

All the DT creations were really gorgeous and I could never make anything any where nearly so lovely, but I would love the chance to try with these gorgeous goodies.

Hugs
Cathy
xxxxx

Dawn said...

Unknown said...

This is tunning, l would definitely use it on my Grandmas Parasol in a box. Using the the lace for the backdrop on the inside of the box,the flowers arranged in the top corner in the box too. Then the pearl beads do loops with and a bow with the ribbon, them when the parasol is gathered in the middle l would them there. The brooch is a touch of class and would be my main feature the the parasol handle.With what is left l would trim the front of the box to finish it all off, as with the presentation box as acetate front so you can see inside , from the parasol to the back part of the box, simply beautiful xx
Would love to win this stunning giveaway xx

Marg said...

Hi and Wow, your giveaway gets better & better!!! This set is so feminine though so I would make something for myself, for my bedroom after its make over is finished (im disabled so everything takes time)... I think I would decorate a mirror with it that would go just above my bed for the days when I cant get out of bed. I have dark purple bedding & curtains so the creams, pearls & lace would look stunning. I would also purchase identical items so I could use them on a cushion for my bed. (I am making initial cushions for myself & all of my grandchildren & a lovely roll barrel shaped one for myself after on which these would look fab!!)
Your DT members are so very talented
{{{Hugs}}}
Marg ;) xx

Unknown said...

Amazing candy. With this i would make a beautiful handbag card for my sisters 21st using the ribbon and trim to decorate between some beautiful papers and using the brooch as some 21st bday bling. Id use the flowers inside to frame a photo and my message x

iReneM said...

Oh my Word!!!
This is stunning candy and such beautiful makes from the DT :)

What would I do with it?
For a start I would find it very difficult to use it for a project to give away.....it would have to be for someone VERY, VERY special. The best idea would be to make something I would keep at home...and wear the brooch.
How very selfish lol.

x

Anneke said...

What a beautiful set! What I would make with this, is a canvas or box with the first picture of my unborn child :) Hugs Anneke

yums said...

These brooches are exquisitely gorgeous and would be perfect for a special woman in my life.....my 93 year old mother-in-law. She loves sparkles and gems especially when I dress up the cards I send her. She deserves all the pearls and crystals for raising her 7 children single handedly (her husband died early) to become wonderful people. Isn't life great???

Divya said...

Beautiful creations by all of you and what an amazing pearl brooch!!

Its my grandparents 60th anniversary this November and my grandfather's 80th birthday as well!! (Touchwood!!)So we have a small family get together!! They both are like this pearl brooch in our lives, precious yet they hold us together with their ever-binding love, care, values and affection!!

On their 50th anniversary I made a set of 50 cards explaining their journey together.

For the 60th anniversary, I plan to make a memory box, with notes from each one of us along with our pictures with them!! (They have 4 children, 10 grandchildren out of which 6 of us are married and 3 great-grandchildren). Its a memory for a life-time!!

I wish them centuries of togetherness!!

Jill x said...

Wow, what a beautiful giveaway, I think I would have to make a lovely vintage frame with a photo of my grandparents, who have both passed away.

Thanks for the chance to win, I think I'd use the broach eithe rto wear on a dress or to dress up a small bag for extra glamour initially to my nieces pagan wedding and later for christmas. The fab ribbins lace and pearls would make some extra special anniversary cards as 14th wedding anniversary colours are ivory and gold.

Karen P said...

There is already a link to you on my blog. Fabulous give away ladies, thank you for the chance.

I would make a box to put the brooch into and would decorate the outiside with beautiful papers and the gorgeous lace, ribbon and pearl trim. I would add those beautiful open roses on the lid of a box.
On the inside I would use the ribbon and lace to decorate the base before adding cream tissue paper. I would then put the brooch on top of the paper. I would give it to my mum as a little present - sorry it took me so long Karen x
