Past work.

These are a couple of bookmarks and a notepad that I made over the Autumn, I really must get back into stitching etc once the holidays are over, perhaps it's the awful weather that make us feel so without motivation, or perhaps it's just me!

Boxing day crafting

Well after a nice but quiet day yesterday, chilling out and overeating, it was good to do a little crafting today in the form of a birthday card, I used my Cricut machine for the bird and cage and my cuttlebug to cut out the nesties, when it was finished I felt it needed a little something so out came the cricut again to cut out the corner piece and that just finished it off. I think I must get used to making flatter cards to fit in with postage costs, especially as there is another rise due in april.

Happy Christmas Everyone!!!

Easter Graphics

Nearly Finished!!

Well my fabric book is about ready to put together, I plucked up courage and made the cover at the weekend now it's just - 'will it go together ok?' a few more days won't matter while I think about it, it's been in the making for over a year!!! The photo's show the pages and the cover, which is made up of layers of lace , crochet pieces and flowers, the large flower piece I found when I was clearing my Aunt's home and I knew I would find a spot for it somewhere, so watch this space for the finished article.

Redbreast!

We are lucky this time round as we have no snow only a heavy frost so we were able to go for our walk around the local lakes where we saw this little chap sitting puffed up and in full view of the path, Roy put some bread crumbs down and he came right up to us to get them.I hope the picture shows him up well.

Plain Paper

The xmas challenge at my scrapbooking group was to create a layout using only plain paers/cards. To do this I got out my cuttlebug and dies and cut out autumn leaves with card that I had coloured with distress inks, the Cricut machine cut out the letters and I added some stamping. The photo I had taken about 4 weeks ago on our walk around the local lakes.
