H is for HANDS....

A friend that teaches sign language asked if I could make a book all about the things that hands can do.... but shushhhhhh she hasn't seen it yet!!!

Hope she likes it, she gave me the little foam hands to put on it and asked if it could be a word book, so this it what my HANDS made xx

Hello peeps :O) :O) :O)

Well long time no blog yet again... I do try, but life just gets in the way.

The holiday in Spain is a dim and distant memory now... but was fun while it lasted and I do still have some Spanish cheese ham and chorizo in the fridge...yumm!

have been working flat out on crafting lately to fill a few orders for friends....

This book was for the lovely CJ to take to her friend in Canada- they met the last time CJ was there and I think they will be friends for life... she loved the book and hopefully her friend will too.

I used BG papers and quite a bit of glitter!!!

As promised a couple of recent layouts, the first one was Karen's class at the crop a couple of weeks back. with a great technique for making the paper flowers

the second was a kit from the crop but I did my own design with it and used the pocket that the rub-ons came in to hide a fold out mini book with more photos on.

Have also been working on a mini book or two but not had time to take photos of them yet but will do later xx

TTFN xx

Just to let the world know I am still here!!!!!!

Yep .... still here ... just!

been working too many hours this week and last, have managed to snatch a bit of time to craft but haven't had time to up-load or take any picks, promise I will try later but have to go to work now.

be back soon ... promise !

Long time, no post!! sorry xxx

Hi there all sorry I have been absent for a bit, life is just soooo busy at the mo.

taught two classes at the Total Papercrafts crop on Sunday and it was great to have a day with friends and a bit of time out for me - didn't get much crafting done (only completed one page!) but had a fab day chilling out for a change :O)

these are the ones I designed and taught .......

and this one is one of Karen's designs xx

Pages I designed and taught at Exhall crop last weekend, hope you liked them ladies, thanks for a great day xx

Studio Challenge...

the challenge was to find something from around the house to use as a mask and do some spraying!!

I used a fork and sprayed over it a few times onto white card stock and then cut into petal shapes to make the flower, also used a few buttons on the page to mask before spraying the background, the flower vines are hand drawn and then cut out... so another layout with just some white card and a few scraps ... think I bight get used to this scraping on a budget :O)
