First Ever Stamped Candle!



Woo hoo. I have seen this technique done loads of times so I thought it was about time I had a go too. I bought some cheap candles at pound stretcher and gave it a go.

It ain't as easy as it looks. To say my candles are rough is an understatement. But hey I tried
and that is what matters. If anyone has got any good hints I would LOVE to hear them.

I will be posting my other two candles so keep your eyes peeled.

Up, Up and away in my beautiful balloon





I was so unsure about this stamp set when I first saw it. But i decided to give it a try and I am so glad I did. I love the die and balloon design. I have not tried the kite yet but it is definitely next on the list.

I just need to buy more copics - like I need an excuse lol

Tom is... 1




I made this card quickly for my friends son who was ...... yep you guessed it 1 yesterday. I kept this card simple cause he is only 1 and does not appreciate the effort that goes into cards. I like the end result which I think is very cute.

I'M BACK AT LAST



I am not going to pretend that my poor blogging is due to my holiday to Boston because that is not true. I have been a blogger slacker. I have got things to blog I just did not manage to get it done yet. Anyway enough of the excuses.

I made this notebook and bookmark and card to thank my Best Friend for taking me to the airport and then picking me up from there. I was so grateful as it meant it was so much less stressful for me.

I used my CHA set which my fabulous proxy got for me from Chicago. I also used my new set just the ticket and matching die which I love big time.
I am a bit disappointed at how my card turned out but I was trying out my vellum card stock for the first time so I guess its a lesson learned huh!

I am loving felt at the moment. It is just so easy and quick to work with. I again used my cricut cartridges to make templates for my pin cushions.

They are just so damn cute. I will need to make more. I intend to make a Hello Kitty one next - ooer hark at me and my ambitions lol.

Felt Creations - Keyrings










I made these super cute felt key rings after seeing the inspiration of the owl which is the fourth picture you can see. I got this as part of a kit from paper & string. It was so easy to make and it took no time at all.

I decided to make my own designs. I used my cricut to make templates for my key rings. Can you guess which cartridges?

I absolutely love these.
