Catching Up!


Well, I had a birthday.  It was quite a good one for me.  No tears, and two meals downstairs with family.  I have been suffering since though - lots of sleep, a blanket and a massive woolly cardigan as I have completely lost control of my body temperature.  I'm being positive and trying my best not to whinge, I did manage an awful lot before the M.E. started ripping me apart.  Because I've not been great there are a few things I haven't blogged...

On Saturday I was up on the SpiegelMom Scraps blog with these science themed shaker cards...


I whipped up the cut files in the Silhouette software and added SpiegelMom Scraps exclusive sequin mixes behind.  (Links can be found here)


Perfect for my science teacher friend!

And on Sunday I had one of my scrapbook sketches used for the like for ever Sunday Sketch Challenge...



I have a few sketches up my sleeve and hope to make like for ever some more too.  It is a new passion I have discovered!

Hopefully I'll be back in the next few days with a layout based on the sketch...

    Hi Laura, Sorry your ME is flaring up so badly. Sending you heaps of positive healing thoughts and hugs (((Laura))). My fibromyalgia isn't happy after a cold day yesterday and it being wet and cold today.

    What a fab idea for cards for science teachers.

    A belated Happy Birthday.

    Hugs
    Sue

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.   ...
