Hey crafters would you like to save some money on Tim Holtz and Ranger products.

Meanwhile at Oysterstamps they will be having some extra special prices going on the same weekend.

Go I tell you, and grab a bargain you know you want to!!!!!

An update.................

Hmmmm lots of things have happened since I last blogged, I won't bore you with all the details, but My life has changed a bit, with that in mind I need to change my direction in life a bit.

Anyhow, I embarked on an on-line course called SheArt, run by a fantastic lady called Christy Tomlinson, I was a bit unsure at first as I am the first to admit I cannot draw for toffee !.

Christy has dealt with that in a brilliant way ( I won't give details as I don't want to spoil it for you if you decide to sign up)

So with no further ado I introduce my SheArt girl.

I have had a blast making her, I have *ahem* a few more canvases in my craft room ready for more girls to emerge as the course progresses.

I would love to know what you think of her.

Enjoy and take care.

Spellbinders .................

I just love em, in fact I cannot get enough of them, then I discover companies making stamps that match the dies, OOOHHHHH I have gone to heaven LOL.

I have been a poorly person the last week, very nasty Chest Infection, still has not gone away, looks as though I will be going back to the doctors.

I thought I would share what I made last night, I found the initial idea as a card on the internet, but I upped it a bit further and made it into an ornament.

Enjoy

Art Journal pictures

Over the last few months, I have been taking part in an Art Journal circle Journal.

The colour I have been working with this month is "fire" ooh how lush is this.

I am really pleased the way it has turned out.

Enjoy

Cards and things for sale................

Yep I have been having a turf out. I have decided to get rid of my Clip it up as I need to room for my ever increasing Spellbinders collection which I have found the perfect storage for ( more info to follow)

I have also made a few cards in the last couple of days, these are mainly samples for Oysterstamps

I have really enjoyed making these. I have found the most delicious card it's called milk touch and it feels like velvet and is embosses beautifully, Heat and cuttlebug versions.

I hope you enjoy them as much as I have making them.

Ouch been an expensive day!

To day has been an expensive day, and nope it was not on craft LOL!!! though I sneaked a quick trip to Picckleberry.

My exhaust on my Big car has has had a really annoying rattle for the last 2-3 months. Well I was in my craft room the other day when my DH (who borrowed the car to go to work) came home, I swear I heard him coming down the lane!

I upped and took the Jalopy to Kwik Fit who quoted me £464.00 to mend it, well you could of picked me up off the floor, I dutifully paid my deposit, then went to the Spray shop to get a quote for fixing the rather large scrape down the side of my car; not my fault this time(DH). Out of curiosity I went into a local whell repair place and asked them how much it would be to fix, well I wish I had gone there first. £200.

Off I went and got my deposit back!

Lesson learned, shop around.

Two posts in one day!!!!!!!!!

I cannot edit my first post to add some pictures, so I am writing a second post.

Here I hope are the pictures of my altered box from last Saturday and the cards I have been making.
