I fell in love with the Hero Arts Hipster Animals stamp set when I stumbled across them on Amazon (as you do) and I knew I just had to have them. They are so cute but great for cards for men. There are a selection of animals and then you can dress them up with... Continue Reading →

Here are some of my recent jewellery makes. Sorry the photos are not the best!
The Infinity Dreams Award!
I was delighted to be nominated by Claire at Paintbox Mum for The Infinity Dreams Award. I have never been nominated for anything like this before so it really is very exciting for me. 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 →

During the 30 Day Colouring Challenge I coloured the same rose stamp once with Polychromos pencils and again with Promarkers with the intention to colour/paint it again with watercolours. I enjoy doing this as I'm always intrigued... Continue Reading →
Fimo Jewellery Part 2
Here are the last of my most recent Fimo makes. They were all hand made by rolling and shaping polymer clay (in this case Fimo). I used a cocktail stick for adding detail. Happy crafting. Hannah
Pretty Pendants – Fimo Jewellery Part 1
When I get my Fimo out its a bit of an event! My craft table has to be totally clear, I have to extend my table so I can secure my pasta machine on, I need to be organised (it's too easy to transfer colours from messy hands when rushing and, whilst I trust my kids not... Continue Reading →
Alcohol Ink – Home Sweet Home
Well, at risk of boring everyone I'm back with another Alcohol Ink project. I wanted to play around a little more to see what else I could do so pulled out stencils and rubber stamps this time. Crafty stash used: Ranger/Tim Holtz Alcohol Ink in various colours plus blending solution White tile Yupo paper Hero... Continue Reading →
