Easy Peasy, lemon squeezy. Both projects were courtesy of SCS so thanks go to them and their originators.
Unfortunately I had to pull the plug on my going to Vicky Stampers as this bug I have is not getting any better and I decided not to run the risk of infecting anyone else with it before Christmas, just not fair to risk that plus the fact I feel so lousy.
I had made a little piece for the front of Jayne's hat (theme: Glam), got some bows and things for Lynne's and started decorating my own.
Here's mine - not easy to see but there is a line of dancers stamped on it, the centre piece is a pair of old ear-rings, not a clue where I got the dollar charm and the others are things I picked up in Vegas (my theme) - oh plus the feathers and jewelled bits at the top.

This was for Jayne
She loves pink
Am just hoping someone takes photos of the finished hats so I can direct you to somewhere to see them - was a brilliant idea of Paul's to do this and so sorry I won't now be taking part.
