Well, today I was going to show you some of my doodles that I'm doing as part of a daily doodle project (challenge is the wrong word as there is no competitive element to it) but my laptop is having a moment and it has decided that I'm not currently allowed to access my photots...

Semi – Precious Jewellery
The shop I sell my jewellery in said they would be interested in trying to sell a few Sterling Silver pieces. Armed with enthusiasm I bought a few supplies along with beads in Rose Quartz, Fluorite and Aventurine. I have loved semi-precious stones since a family holiday when I was about 8 and my parents...

Gelli Plate Printing!
A few weeks ago I succumbed (Amazon again - 00ps) to a Gelli Printing block. I've seen YouTube videos about it and was intrigued but always put off by the price of the block. A quiet moment at the beginning of this week I decided that it was time to take it out the packet... Continue Reading →
Fimo Jewellery
I've realised this week that I should start taking photos of my makings as I go along rather than waiting till I have finished. Common sense, I know, but I get so absorbed in what I am doing that logic escapes me. Anyway, here are the recent pieces of jewellery made with some of the... Continue Reading →
Fimo Beads

Check out Claire's blog for lots of fun kids crafting ideas - with summer holidays creeping up on us it is always a... Continue Reading →
The color throwdown – Gorjuss Poppy Wood
I'm back with my entry for this weeks color throwdown CTD 391. This weeks colours are lovely and I haven't made a card in a few weeks (my beads have been out instead) so I thought I would get back into the swing of things with some no line water colouring and attempting to colour...

Watercolour Doodle – Flower Girl
I've had an aimless week although not because I have nothing to do. I've lost track how many times I have set myself a task to do and then find myself sitting watching Netflix an hour later with that task still not done. I get so frustrated when I feel like this but I also... Continue Reading →
