Love Note


When you buy a pack of flair you inevitably get one that you wouldn't have picked if you were buying them singularly.  'Love Note'.  I'm single, I have no one to write love notes to, so how am I going to use it?  Well, I decided to write myself a love note...


It's on the black card in the pocket, behind the little cluster of flair and a button.  I got to use some of the washi from my Counterfeit Kit and finally cracked open that black lace tape!  Seriously, I've had it so long I can't remember where or why I bought it.  Operation use-it-up commences!  It's the stuff tucked behind the photo.


And a 'hi' paper clip, from the 'Hi May' kit I put together.


A sprinkling of buttons - that seems to be a theme this month!  Love my buttons...


No title or other visible words on the front of the layout - just 'love note' on the flair and the hidden journalling.  It was a bit odd writing nice things to myself.  Nice odd.  I think maybe it's something we should all do once in while.  It's therapeutic.

Thanks for stopping by!

  5. Your expressive photo is just perfect for this (you are so lovely!) What a wonderful exercise to write the note to yourself. Something we should all consider from time to time, especially if we are feeling misunderstood or underappreciated...

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 159

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

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
