Finally!
Finished uploading all my card pictures from 2010! Have resolved to upload atleast once a week this year, and blog them too.
I think this is my favourite card from 2010. Very simple and I started with a beautiful paper and a beautiful ribbon.
The paper is manufactured by Scenic Route, and its called "Laurel - Baywood Lane".

The ribbon is from an Anna Griffin ribbon collection.

My table in Shifnal!
This was my third attempt at a craft stall, once again in Shifnal, but this time the christmas fair.
I didnt spot the sellotape, my first customer passed it to me, oops.

Kitty care package
Sent this package to Maria for her kitties to enjoy :) They went down well! Sold completely out of catnip toys, have to start a new batch for the easter fair!
Chunky Bracelets
Some of the jewellery I made after visiting the Birmingham Bead shop in the Custard Factory. It's a really cool shop, full of lots of the beads that you just cant get elsewhere, and very much things on trend and in fashion. Worth a visit if you are in the vicinity, there is a car park very near to it!

Su and my tables at the craft fairs.
Photo from the October craft fair in Shifnal 2010. This was our second go at setting up a stall! We needed an extra table just to show the tiles, no offers tho, so they didnt pay their way!
Catnip Kitties
Sold 19 of these at the craft fairs over xmas, have to start making some more for the easter fairs... am tempted to make a few bunnies. :)
Catnip toys are £1.50 each and are easy and light to post.
If you would like one/some please drop me a line. And if you have any ideas for new themes and outfits for them, please let me know! :D

Musical 19th
Still more to upload. I have fully embraced red and black! I like this style of card, its actually quite easy, just a bit time consuming collating the parts.
Lucite Bracelet and Long Necklace
Commissioned Birthday Gifts. The bracelet is on a stretchy silver charm bracelet. I could make this in pink or purple if you are interested in one. I also have some hummingbird charms to add if wanted. Going to take some to the craft fairs to sell.
Hero Arts stamp stash.
Another large batch of cards uploaded onto flickr, almost finished the 2010 catchup! Pleased to have a few new Hero Arts cards so I can add them to the excellent HA flickr group, wish I had more time to get involved as they seem a nice bunch of peeps.

Front covers of Scrapbooks
Made these as soon as I got my cinch! Great tool, super easy, lots of fun.
I raided my scrap paper area and sized up a load of paper to make a scrap paper pad. Nice papers, the kind you could reuse in projects, not just use for notes.
I then gesso'd the covers, and wood effected them with brown stazon.
I did the cinching bit next.
Then I went a bit mental with the HA stamps and stamped them onto lots of different papers, then paper-pieced them together for the covers.
Then I used up lots of ribbon scraps for the spine, and some new ribbons too I admit :)
HA stamps
CL135
CL309
CL264
CL153
CL261
Sold both of them at a craft fair on their first outting, think I shall be making more :)
Having a bit of a catch up session with my photos and blog and things, made these in October last year! So far behind, erf....
