Another gift for a friend

Hi Everyone,

Last week I tried something a little different for one of my girls' little friends - a personalised name frame


And of course I had to make a matching card!



What do you think?

Gotta love the Big Shot, the timeless type alpha and the Fun Flowers dies!!

My Simply Scored Tote Bag

Hi Everyone,

I'm really into my sewing at the moment, I've been busy making heatpacks and pj's for my girls and thought I would make something for myself... The question was what to make?

I decided to make a tote bag for my Simply Scored Tool and it's also big enough to fit in a ring binder scrapbook album.



I embellished my bag with the Twitterpatted fabric - using the Fun Flowers Dies and then covering some buttons to match. The straps are lined and feel very sturdy!

I'm going to make a few different bags and have them for sale on my facebook page if you are interested. Prices will start from $25.

And here's a pic of the pj's I made for my girls :)

Gotta love a Customised book

Hi Everyone,


Well it seems to be another birthday streak for us at the moment. Last week Miss "now" 4 had a b'day party for a friend and she helped me to decorate this notebook.




And you may not have realised but Miss 4 did have a b'day party to celebrate, naughty mummy didn't take any photos of the invites so I'll have to make a new one or rustle one up from family to show, but I did take a quick pic of the pillow box lolly bags we made. Everyone had a different colour!

What the kids made

Hi Everyone,

My July School holiday class was a success, with 12 participants it sure was busy!!

All the kids did a great job making one of these sets



The kids have all left their boxes open, ready to fill with a gift (my suggestions were chocolates for Dad or jewellery for Mum!)

Festive Friday Challenge

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to my first ever design team post!! I was very very lucky to be able to help out Nicole Derendorf,  with this Festive Friday Challenge!

This time round it was a colour challenge. These were the colours:


And of course, it had to be festive....

This is what I came up with:



I was thrilled to help out Nicole! And it gave my creative juices a massive kick start! That night I cleaned my craft room so I could spend the next 2 days crafting!! Of course, it never takes long to make my space all messy again, but I'm slowly getting my room more organised and user friendly so it makes cleaning up a lot easier and I'm trying to do it more often so there's not so much mess!

Taking a step away from the cards...

Hi Everyone,

I've recently 'invested' in the "Beautiful Butterflies" bigz die for my Big Shot and thought I'd share one of my creations...



And for these 2, I used the Circles #2 Die:




Something a bit different from all the papercraft hey! All the buttons have been hand-sewn on so they will not fall off!

These are all for sale, if you are interested, please email me, (I'm happy to post to anywhere in Australia).
