We had a lovely day on Saturday with a very early start at 6am. We got to the NEC at about 9am ready to fill our crafty bags with lots of lovely stash. Lucy is paper and fabric crafter and I love my papercraft and beads so we were both in seventh heaven. I went last year so knew how huge it is and how busy it gets! It was lovely to start with as people were still filing into the building but by 10.30-11am is was packed. I must admit though I only heard one person moan about the crowds, I thought that was pretty good considering how many people must have been in that building. The stall holders were really helpful, especially a gentleman on the Anita's beads stand who took the trouble to help me find the right coloured beads for the project I wanted to make, the team on the jewellerymakers stand who spent time chatting. The lady on the beads and beyond stand who looked after my freebies whilst I finished looking around, what a wicked deal I got there I can tell you loads of lovely free stuff my favourite price!<br />
Well here's a picture of my new stash.....pictures aren't great sorry!<br />

I blog hop everyday just to keep up with what's going on in the world and gain some inspiration.<br />
So here's my latest couple of projects.<br />
<br />
A 12"x 12" box frame that I made on Friday instead of doing the housework (as normal...whoops!)<br />

</div>
Well it's been a long painful month for lots of different reasons that I won't bore you with, so down to what's been happening in the crafty side of my life.<br />
A friend is getting married on Saturday and asked me to make a card for her to give to her new husband. She wanted it to be in her future husbands favourite colours which are red & blue, so I had a bit of a panic as to what to do but I'm really pleased with the finished result and so was she. I've used a teddybo digi image and coloured it with a combo of spectrum noirs, flex & promarkers and copics. Die cut heart shapes are from xcut with a spellbinder die for the sentiment which I printed out from the sentiments on craftartist. The embossed background is spellbinder embossing folder and then sanded to reveal the pattern more.<br />
I've also been asked by the bride sister to make a wordbook in her wedding colours which are bright pink and orange, again I started to panic but once I hunted out the colours I really enjoyed putting it all together. I'll post a picture after the big day as I don't want the bride to see the finished result until she and her new hubby receive their card.<br />

As wedding season is in full swing one of my work friends was asking whether I could make some Thank you cards for him and his new bride to give after the big day. He didn't really know what he wanted so I've made a couple of samples to show him. As they want 50 cards I've done something very simple as I don't want to have to make duplicates of something over complicated, so these would be very quick to make once I've die cut out the shapes. I hope he and his young lady like them or it's back to the drawing board. </div>

Lastly I thought I'd show you a tag I made the other day with some new distress inks pads that I got a great deal on with really great quick delivery on <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130714133059?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2648#ht_2020wt_905" target="_blank">ebay</a>, £18 for 6 ink pads plus £1.70 postage. What a bargain £3 an ink pad. I've used some spellbinder rolled flowers and leaves and some glimmer mists for some sparkle. Hope you have a lovely Thursday. </div>

Just a few photos of what we've been up to at work today! So nice of the Queen & Prince Phillip to pop in during their busy Diamond Jubilee celebrations? And so none of our team felt left out of all the celebrations that are happening around the area we set up a street party in our staff canteen. </div>

We stayed just a few miles from <a href="http://www.padstowlive.com/" target="_blank">Padstow </a>and visited Watergate bay, <a href="http://www.visitnewquay.org/" target="_blank">Newquay</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Isaac" target="_blank">Port Isaac </a>(where they film <a href="http://www.tvduck.com/Doc-Martin.html" target="_blank">Doc Martin</a>) also we've been looking for celebrity chefs Padstow, Rick Stein and Watergate bay, Jamie Oliver but didn't seen any. We did have dinner at one of Rick Stein's pubs the Cornish arms and very nice too. So a few photo's of Port Isaac to show you it was such a stunning day with lots of walking up and down hills.<br />

She doesn't cuddle with me very often she is Daddy's girl normally but if I'm in my craftroom she usually comes to investigate and sometimes comes for a quick cuddle usually lying on top of what I'm trying to work on.<br />

I wanted a mainly white card with a little hint of colour as it is for a Wedding. We have been invited to one of Dave's work mates evening reception next weekend which will be nice to have an evening out for a change.<br />

I've used several different spellbinder dies and embossing die for the background. The hat pin I made awhile back and this just fitted with the colours. I hope the newly weds will like it.<br />
I'm going to enter this card into the <a href="http://papersundaes.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Paper Sundaes challenge</a> - ribbon & pearls. I'm off to do a bit more blog hopping before it's time to watch 'The Voice'<br />

I thought I'd show you the necklaces I made today. The image in the pendant is made with some scraps of paper and then glued into the cameo setting and then a cabochon placed over the top. I also sprinkled a little glitter into the glue before adding the cabochon. I added a couple more charms to finish the piece.</div>

I used up the rest of the freebie papers making these two cards. I love the colour combo of pink and blue. I used Bitty Blossoms spellbinders die to make the flowers on both cards. The heart shaped card is cut with an xcut die and the bunting is an xcut die. The sentiment on the heart shaped card is a graphicus one and the bottom 'happy' is stamped using a set my daughter had as a child (can't throw anything away me!) The 'birthday' stamp comes from a set from See-D's. </div>

My other half has been out this morning so I have had the chance to have a little play in my craft room with some of my new spellbinder dies and a few older ones too. I thought I'd have a go at a couple of challenges. This card is for 2 challenges - <a href="http://ribbongirls.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">The Ribbon Girl </a>- a colour combo & <a href="http://cardpatterns.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">CardPatterns</a> - a sketch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've used some papers which came free with a magazine ages ago and core'dinations cardstock. I've used the following dies - </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lacey Circles (spellbinders)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Circles scallop (sizzix)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Shapeabilities Wings of hope (spellbinders)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The sentiment is a stamp from a graphicus set I've had forever. I then added a couple of polka dot buttons and some bakers twine and polka dot ribbon. I'm really pleased with the results, I hope you like it too. </div>

Good morning, I've been doing a bit of colouring with some of my digi images which I've had in a folder for awhile now. So my desk is covered in bits and pieces of paper from some of the cards I've made over the last few days. Below is an digi image from <a href="http://www.tiddlyinks.com/" target="_blank">Tiddly Inks</a> which I bought ages ago and found last night while looking for something different to colour in. I coloured in with a mixture of copics, pro & flexmarkers and spectrum noirs.<br />

I am a bad girl and treated myself to one of the spellbinder's pick of weeks at create and craft last week and it arrived yesterday while I was at work. So lots of new goodies to play with. Lucky I have had today off work as the store is shut. However I had a rubbish nights sleep last night and woke up feeling awful this morning and ended going back to bed for a while and didn't surface until about 11am which is unheard of for me. It does feel like a waste of a morning but we did go and have a walk around Ham Hill which is just up the road from us and blew a few cobwebs away. Now I really must go and make some tea as my Husband will be getting hungry and I better feed him I suspose?<br />
<br />
Here's a quick card I made with some of the spiral flowers. Can't get the hang of getting them to stick down that well but I'll keep practicing.<br />

A couple of makes from the last week is what fills my workdesk this evening, I mini tag book made with the recipe cards from the new papermania dvd and a 'made in England' card made with the papermania papers, which I've coloured with with red and blue to be a bit patriotic. Not that I am particularly patriotic but thought I'd keep up with the trends. </div>

Mum had another hospital appointment this afternoon which takes us pretty close to a local garden centre which has a rather nice craft shop so she suggested a visit and it would have been rude to refuse! She treated me to a sizzix die, the mini paper rosettes which I'm just about to have a play with when I've finished this post. </div>

Here's my workdesk for this Wednesday, with a couple of cards I made yesterday evening on it. Not sure about the steampunk style one, I knew what I wanted it to look like in my head but it didn't quite transfer to the paper. I used papermania paper pad, a kanban stamp, which I paper pieced and then coloured with distress inks. I highlighted the belt on the dress with gold pen. I added some charms, held on with some jute string. </div>

I have some long awaited time to myself, I've had a mad couple of weeks and little or no time to craft. However I did manage to visit a local craft shop last Tuesday with my Mum and picked up some papers from papermania which I've used to make the bottom card. The idea for the card I nicked from one of the presenters on create and craft this week on the pick of the day show. The top card was for my sister in laws birthday but due some manic runabout for poorly parents never got posted. (sorry Sue!) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm a bit disappointed with the postman today, I bought the pick of the day from create and craft on Tuesday, the new papermanic dvd rom and he has failed to deliver when lots of people were emailing in to create and craft today saying that theirs has arrived. I was looking forward to having something new to play with this evening as Saturday night telly is the worst!</div>

I need to buy the mixative stuff as well and then have another go I think.<br />

This pile of crafty loveliness is all Tatty Teddy goodies which I will be able to play with next week when I have a long awaited weeks holiday. I bought this from create and craft on a pick of the week. It's a completely rubbish photo taken with no lights on and just the poor natural light, sorry!<br />

I'm all excited tonight as my daughter has flown in from Italy today and we go and pick her up from the station in about an hours time. I can't wait to see her and give her a big big hug. She's working in Italy, designing Knitwear for<a href="http://www.maxmara.com/it/Pagina-Iniziale" target="_blank"> Maxmara</a> and we are so proud of her. Hopefully I'll be able to show you one day what she has designed for them. </div>

Here's a couple photo's of the card I made the other day. I've used a Grand scalloped Nestie to make the base card, which I scored and folded in half. Next I die cut some smaller scalloped nesties and layered up. The image is a new stamp I bought from create and craft from Kanban coloured with a mixture of flex and promarkers and copics. The flowers are die cut with a spellbinder die as is the tag with the sentiment on. A couple of brads and a bit of ribbon and quite a cute card.

Yes I know it's Thursday whoops!!Yes I know it's Thursday but I just didn't get the time yesterday to upload my pictures of my desk! This is the first day I've had to myself without having to run off and do something from someone else in months, so I'm being selfish today and doing what I want, when I want, how I want, so there!!!! Right that's my rant over and done with now down to some crafty business.<br />
Here's a pic heavy post of my latest crafty buys and it's more fabric and some ribbon, not quite sure what I'm going to make with it but when I spotted it on Ebay I just had to have it.<br />

Now from the bottom left the pink birdy fabric is a tilda from <a href="http://stores.ebay.co.uk/pigletspincushion">HERE</a>, the Russian doll and red check are from <a href="http://stores.ebay.co.uk/fabric-garden/Japanese-Kokka-fabric-/_i.html?_fsub=1224331011&_sid=599858991&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322">HERE</a> and pink and brown fabrics in the centre and pink and green and calico on the right are from <a href="http://stores.ebay.co.uk/thefabricfrieze">HERE</a>. The 2 reels of ribbon are from a gift shop in my town and I will be going back for more soon as they are so pretty and I <u style="font-weight: bold;">must</u> have them??!! I want to make a cover for my mobile phone and camera and have been hunting the net to find a pattern that my unskilled sewing can cope with? So if you know of somewhere please point me in the right direction please. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Meanwhile I have been making more needlecraft bits and bobs and die cutting fabric and felt to make embellishments I have posted these before but am toying with the idea of putting them on to Ebay to sell? </div>

Lastly here's the card I've made for my Husband for Valentine's day, It's not all pink and red and girly but I like it and hopefully so will he? Not that we are the romantic types really but I think it's nice to show someone how much you love them. </div>

Here's the finished card I made the other night for my Mum to send to my Aunty, hope she likes it. I've used some of my new papers and paper flowers I bought from Dunelm last week. The images is a Lili of the valley stamp coloured with copics, flex and promarkers.<br />
I'm staying at my Dad's tonight to give him a bit of company whilst Mum is away having her treatment. It's really odd staying at my old home and having to sleep in a single bed when I'm used a Superking one normally, even though I share it with my other half! It's madness really cos' my 80 year old Father stays up later than I do, I'm usually off to bed around 9 if not before as I get up at about 5ish every morning.<br />

Here's the latest edition to the crafting stash, (rubbish photo sorry!) It's a button covering machine thingy not sure quite what it's proper name is and some uncovered buttons to play with, also some binding to use for bunting. I have more fabric coming as well so lots of lovely goodies to look forward to playing with.<br />
