Scrubbies
These really are gorgeous to use on your face or even for baby in the bath :)
Whilst at my parents there was no internet and I forgot the charger for my mobile phone too, so I had plenty of me time, listening to the radio in the evenings and 'hooking' away
This is for me, its quite an easy scarf to make and hopefully should be finished very soon, although if I'm thinking of doing crochet scarves for christmas presents I think I better start now! lol

Homeward Bound
Thats the good thing about your parents living near the seaside I guess, obviously too cold to go there this time but the air is so different and refreshing its just good for the break and to catch up with the local village goss!
Whilst driving home today we were hit by snow, and its still snowing and settling now! so I wonder what we'll wake up too tomorrow
Trying to get these three to look at the camera at the same time is a joke! so this will have to make do, I'm so gonna use these mock polaroids on some scrapbook projects me thinks :)
I have some crafty items to show you tomorrow x

offcuts!
Even I'm giggling at this one lol
Last night after the dust had settled in my craft room after the big sort out, I had a box of cardstock offcuts and set to work, using only these and the odd embellishment, they were super quick and you know what, I enjoyed making them lots :)
Are you using up your stash :)Friday 12 February 2010

Wowsers
- I found stuff I forgot I had :)
- I found stuff I know I will never use again so all packaged up for my neice who will get that lot of goodies next week :)
- I found more full 12x12 sheets and will take them to crop with me on Sunday and sell for 20p each :)
- I now rather than having bits here and there have - papers for projects (like mini books I've started and JYC) together and labelled, odd papers together, sets like basic grey together, templates etc... the list goes on but I now feel very motivated :)
- oooh and a huge bag for the rubbish bin too
- and finally lovely small bits of papers which are great for punches etc (even though I so badly need to invest in more) in some boxes (which were from christmas presents so i've even being recycling too) :)
Hows that for an evening then eh!!!!
Just to leave you with something pretty, I made this album for my Etsy Store and its already sold :) soooo pretty so I'm not surprised really
oh and the house we were going to buy (the whole reason we put our house on the market) sold today! oh well it was never meant to be, I found my dream home today :) so just waiting for a buyer for us before I get my hopes up
Night night and thanks for popping by
Willow Sketchie
Materials used alfie and the birdhouse patterned papers (available here) corrugated card, ribbons and buttons from stash
I used glossy accents and clear stickles to highlight alfie, something different I thought
Pop on over and join in with us, theres a free download up for grabs
Production Line
- So far today I can cross off finishing putting the mini kits together and the 'Valentines' surprises (dont you just love running a crop cause you can come up with all fun things to do - hehehe)
- Application form safely in envelope and will be posted first thing tomorrow!
- Design Card done! (not my most fav card but I kinda lost my mojo but I have to go with it now :( as I ran out of time to do anything else)
- Some freebie magazine stuff that I will never use has being given to my lovely elderly neighbour :)
- Other freebie magazine stuff has been made into cards for my Mums WI group (only one more batch to do and then finito - well for now)
- Stamp designs (yes you heard right, a whole 6 months I've had these babies lying around on paper and in my head, but they are finally going to be born!)
Doesnt sound like much but believe me all that, takes up way too much :) Slowly I will get through my list and a huge thanks for all the lovely comments on my mini book basket, one has being taken out and will be worked on tomorrow :) so will show very soon
Until then I'll leave you with thisa new range of one off albums available in my Etsy store here
