In accordance to my new year post I am staying focused on my Etsy shop and trying to keep ahead with seasons and events. I seem to gravitate more and more towards my polymer clay at the moment but I think that it's because I can create whatever odd idea I have (within reason!) as... Continue Reading →
I've spent the last few days updating my Etsy shop with some new bits and realised that I didn't get round to sharing the new colours I made using the watercolour polymer clay technique. I loved the blue/green collection so much I had to try it again using warmer colours perfect for autumn but would... Continue Reading →
Hello! I am a big believer in trying to combine learned techniques with new ways of working. I have made galaxy inspired backgrounds in card making a few times and always loved the results (such as this one - rubbish photo but you get the idea) but since I am now totally in love with...

Hello, Long time no see! I fell down the school summer holiday hole. I am climbing back up slowly and just at the point of peeking my head out. The kids are not back yet (next Thursday - not that I am counting down the days or anything) but hubby has just taken them out... Continue Reading →
I have tried so many times in the past to make flower polymer clay canes but with little to no success. The idea is to make a long sausage of clay with a pattern running down the length of it which you can cut slices off and use as you wish. A month or so... Continue Reading →
Hello! It seems absolutely ages since my last blog post. I have got very bad with getting anything done over the last few weeks and all my creative oomph seems to have gone for a wander. Hoping it returns soon as I am yet to start Christmas card making (I know, pretty bad that a... Continue Reading →
