Me & Tim.


Well Anybody who is a crafter knows who this guy is. its the one & Only Tim Holtz :)
Just got back from a demo by him, so am very tired. I want to craft, but am not to it yet. Met a few other Crafty friends to, & met somebody else from UKS as well. Sadly I didn't see as much as i had hoped, my body was complaining loudly about having to stand up, it was only a small table & people seemed to stay in their place, even though I am tall, I still was struggling to see some of it. it did however pass to quickly & if i could of seen more & able to sit down, would of loved for it to last longer. I did do 2 tags as make & takes as well. one with Alcohol inks, the other with Distress inkpads. I already own most of the colours of the distress ones & Do Love Tim's Style. I also have the alcohol inks, but don't really use them, I must remedy that :). The rest of the photo's are on here.

Loving crafting again


I am now crafting so much more, & Loving it :)
Monday I went round to somebody's & we had a crafty session. I have now finished my Stamped Box. Monday Night was the monthly Stamping Mad meet, we made our own lacquer & stamped & embossed onto acetate, made a lovely daffodil card.
Tuesday I went over to my parents house, so no crafting, but still glad to see my Mum & Dad :)
Wednesday, I went over to somebodys again, started doing some more of my ATC's & made some more blanks. Last night IO sat & cut some more out, I even took scissors, glue stick, nice papers & corner punch to bed with me & made some more nice atc blanks ready to decorate. I have decided I love the Papermania 12 x 12 colossal paper pack. It's the Nostalgia warm set.
Today I have stamped more backs of the Atc blanks & made more blanks. I want to0 make another set of 4 & do some coordinated embellishments before I go out later. I am out at Hyndburn Crafters this afternoon to :)
I will add some photo's after.
Ooh, Postie has just been, another 54 rolls of gorgeous ribbon, I am in heaven :)

Been crafting again




On Wednesday I went round to Somebody's for a crafty session. it was so nice to sit & craft together again. I have started doing some stamped & mica painted box's. I haven't finished them yet, so will post a piccy when I have :).
Yesterday it was craft group. We made some Atc's. Again a enjoyable time, why is it time goes so fast when you are having fun :) I have added them to a ATC album on my crafty webshots website ( link on the right). The wings on the Butterfly Atc are 3d & glittered, but have flattened during the scan. There is also glitter on the border of the cat ones, also on the little butterfly corner.
