Mini Album and Hop Hop!


Before I get to the photos of my mini album here is just a little bit of waffle...
 
So, Elaine my CR teammate is running a hop today to showcase the re-launch of her 'Anything But A Card' challenges.  She asked us if we would like to join in by posting projects on the Inspirations site.  To join in the hop head over to Elaine's for all the details... that is after you've stopped to have a look at the mini album I've made  ;)
 
 





 
Supplies from Crafty Ribbons; chocolate, birthday, carrots, ric rac, loopy cord, stripe ribbons, dotty ribbon, sheer, hearts, button box, check and hearts!
 
 
Pretty cool to think this whole album is just  DL envelopes I had had lying around for years! 
 
 
& yeah, I know no one else would bother to document the carrot harvest let alone devote an entire mini album to it but hey, it was important to me!  I enjoyed them very much, as did Daisy Bunny.


 
the whole concept started when I saw the carrot ribbon... I knew I needed it and would use it with pictures of Daisy Bunny.

chocolate sentiment ribbon that says keep calm and eat chocolate - I only used the 'eat' part...


Super happy with how it's turned out  :)

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead up in the corresponding g

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   At each stop on the hop there'll be a word to collect and a candy draw. I've got these

WOYWW & Card Deck Swap

First up is my desk ... Hmm.  Perhaps the less said the better!  I really should have a sort out but I fancy desking instead! Next I want to share my card deck swaps (deskers don't have to stay for this bit but I reckon you'd enjoy joining in with us, which is why I'm including it in this post) You can read about the swap here on Jessica's blog and sign up here .  Basically, we take a deck of cards, add paint and/or paper, then add a positive sentiment to each card.  Post them to Jessica who shuffles them and sends back 52 different cards from different artists (yes, you are an artist!) from all over the world. These few are ones I have picked out to display first.  I'll swap them round after a few weeks.  Do you like my domino pegs?  :) Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll at least consider joining us for the card swap - it's like a super sized ATC swap, and all WOYWW er's know they are fun! See you at your desk x
