Preparing for my first workshop!

Extremely nervous and excited about Sunday's Jewellery Workshop. Everything is now laid out and I think perhaps I have over done it on the beads, lol! I've sorted things into a selection of small plastic boxes, infact a lot of small plastic boxes, think they might have sent me barmy ;) Just trying to work out now what I have forgotten.... always the difficult bit :) Looking forward to seeing everyone in the cafe on Sunday :D

New sets of tools arrived this morning.

Just set up my first shelf in a shop! It's in a pop-up craft and vintage shop in Newport, Shropshire. Trying it out for a month to see how it goes. I also have some wall space and am selling some of my framed original watercolours.

B.E.M.

Probably the only time I'll make a Congrats card for someone receiving a British Empire Medal. Used the Kanban Jubilee set to make this.

Graduation Congrats

Took me quite a while to think of a fitting card for a biochemist. Also used the Sizzix Eclips for this card too. I created the evolution of man images in silhouette and then sent it to be cut! Finally worked out what setting is needed for my normal papers, need to suss out the settings for card next!


Happy Father's Day

Hope you had a good one :) Couldn't post the picture until after the special day, didn't want spoilers! Why not order a personalised card for your Dad next year?

Finally getting to grips with the new Sizzix Eclips cutting machine. I created the circle of DIY tools in silhouette and then traced the image using the ecut software that comes with the machine. This means I can cut this out in the future again and again, with no scissors!  Am all for making things easier :)
