Arctophile


Aah, neon.  My old friend!  I will never grow tired of you... when I am a pensioner I will still love you!  This is a layout made for NSD using my sketch for like for ever.


I really enjoyed designing the sketch and have decided to make more!  I'd love you to let me know if you use my sketches for inspiration - you can tag me on instagram (@beadsbuttonsandbirds) or facebook (facebook.com/laurarumble)


I pretty much pulled out all of my neon supplies... neon sequins from like for ever, neon enamel dots from freckled fawn, neon stickers and post it notes from HEMA, neon washi from all over the place!


And I finally used the last of the neon alphas from Heidi Swapp from a good 6 years ago!!  When I get near the end of pack I put the left over letters through an anagram finder to see what words are available.  I was very chuffed when this word popped up.  I am an arctophile, a collector of teddy bears.

Thanks for dropping by!

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 u...

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.   ...
