Dare to Be Different One Day Special with Craftascope

Morning Friends and Crafters, Well at last I have got to the end of the preparation for my very first One Day Special on Hochanda. I do hope you will join me and add your support. This is a very different collection, absolutely fantastic for Mixed Media projects, but a lot more besides.

The stamps, dies and stencils will allow you to create a wide range of unique crafting projects. Today I have included a few Sneek Peeks for you. to give you a taste of whats to come.

I really am sure the shows are going to be a lot of fun and maybe a few surprises along the way. You never know.There has been an awful lot of prep, which has taken a lot more time than I expected so please forgive me for my absence, I do hope you think it's been worth the wait.

Please do join me on Monday evening at 6pm with Hayley and then 8pm with our Leonie. I will be back again for more shows on Tuesday at 9am, 1pm and for Final Call at 5pm. I really look forward to sharing this collection with you and hope you will add your support. Will you 'Dare to be Different ?' 

For now Take care and Happy Crafting.xxx

Feed The Mice Tuppence a Bag

Morning, I really love adding a little bit of fun or a story to some of my cards. This was a little bit of fun coupled with a play on words. I will apologise in advance for any of you, who keep singing this song for a while. I know a few of you did message after I blogged the card I made with Leonie's Kite.

It's a fairly simple card, comprising of some simple matting and layering. The House Mouse stamps are a particular favourite of mine. They fit so many different occasions, and depending on how you incorporate them in your designs can be fun or a little more serious.

I stamped out the House Mouse image on to Super Smooth card and coloured it using my alcohol markers. I used an inverted corner punch and matted onto a light blue card. The same for the sentiment.

The bottom part added the fun, I made 2 of the old brown paper bags and added a little fleece to make them appear full. Then I added some cheese made from fimo along with a couple of the old Pennies. I finished off the card with some coordinating ribbon.

I really hope you like this light-hearted card, It's fun to make and great to give or send to someone with a sense of humour.

Thank you for stopping by and hope you visit again soon.Take care xx
