1, 2, 3

I'm not the greatest card maker in the world and the other night I was doing a bit of surfing and came across some fabulous crafting blogs. One of them was Secret Crafters Saturday Challenge (SCSC) so I'm going to join them and see if I can't muster up some inspiration and some cards that are a little bit different from my norm. This is my first challenge entry (#16), although this one isn't much different from my norm, lol.


The challenge was 1, 2, 3. One image, 2 papers and 3 embellishements. My 2 papers are Basic Grey Periphery, stamped with Tim Holtz Weathered Wood (my beloved distress inks), Fancy pants velvet ribbon, Creative Acrylics greeting and I can't remember where I got the blossom or the stamp.

The link to SCSC is under my 'fave places' if you want to take a peek.

JUST A QUICKIE..

Yay!!!! I've finally managed to make a couple more jewellery pieces and upload them to my site. It's been that long, I'd almost forgotten how to use Dreamweaver, lol.

So, I've done some beading, done some claying and now I'm in the mood for more papercrafting.

A LONG TIME GONE...

Well, I've been gone a while again haven't I? I did warn you I wasn't the best blogger in the world, lol. I've not really been up to much as like many people this time of year, I've been a bit poorly. I also fell down my stairs over Christmas and put my back out for nearly 3 weeks. Still, my article for my Mica Shift Pendant has been published in the Polymer Cafe mag and is now on sale so that cheered me up no end. I've only done a bit of crafting and got no photography or photoshopping done at all. Still, here's a couple of bits that I did recently.

I was playing around and started making these double hinged ATC's so I made quite a few for RAK'S for my crafty friends. These are just a sampling.










I did this LO of my Granddaughter very simply. At least, it's simple by my usual standards. No title and no journaling as there is no story with this one. Simply Mia.



It's also been quite some time (a couple of months) since I've made any jewellery but yesterday I got my polymer clay out and made this focal bead. I've strung the bracelet with Swarovski crystals and sterling silver beads. Now, I really must get some more stuff made and update my website.



Hopefully, as well as getting more crafting done, I'll finally get round to posting some tutorials over on 'Make Something Nice' and then put the link up for you.
