My name is...



Some people must think I'm daft - the things I scrapbook seem really silly at times...  But I think these are things I won't remember and well... I had fun so what does it matter?!

My feathered friend has many many nicknames and I decided to put them down on a page so I can remember them forever...


 

I've also made a new resolution - I will use the supplies that I have even if they are 'special' or 'too nice' or 'favourites' or 'expensive' - I have things that I keep for no credible reason, what is the point of having them if I'm never going to use them?  Alphas are one of those supplies...




I think that is stash-busting!!


 
 
So I'm really pleased I have this recorded and I'm really pleased I have used my supplies.
 
 
Thanks for stopping by

  2. I love the LO for Billy. He is so like my last budgie Freddie. I'd have another one, but not sure what Polly would think.

    Has Billy got a blue bit above his beak? It's just in the photo it looks brown which means Billy is a she.

    I keep my special stash for special people:)

    1. Oh, William is definitely a girl. She was really young when we got her (too young, I think, but she was in the pet shop anyway.) We were told she was a boy and all chicks have blue ceres so we went along with that. Got a bit of a shock when it turned brown :) But she's still William when she's naughty... Sometimes Williamgirl... she's one very confused little lady!

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

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
