Curioser and Curioser!

Happy Monday everyone, although someone tell the weather! 

Actually we haven't done bad this year have we, there has been some lovely sunshine, just hope it's not the end!

I've blogged over at Indigoblu today, you can see my post here, I made a clock, with the White Rabbit stamp from one of the Alice in Wonderland plates from Indigoblu, and the fabulous Clockwork set.  Here is a sneak peak.

Just had a tidy up of the craft room, ready for the next round!  Did make this today though, it just needs finishing with a nice chain.  It's using Megaflakes and Flitterglu on black card, is set in a Rue Romantique bezel, and is sealed with a clear dome of Ice Resin, hasn't it domed beautifully?  It's a delicate piece, probably an inch and a half square in total, and I haven't decided how to hang it yet.

 

 



On another note, If you get Simply Card's and Papercraft magazine, issue 115 should be out around the 12th, and I'm really excited to be published for Indigoblu in this issue!  I can't wait to see it!

I've been working on another submission for another magazine, but can't tell you yet when that one is out as I don't even know myself.

If you are a crafter of any description, or love buying handmade, why not pop over to Creative Connections, and join like-minded people for Craftfest Autumn 2013.  You can join the Creative Connections gang as well, it's a huge community of people that promote each other tirelessly, have great fun, and can answer questions, or just be there for a chat.  Creative Crafting magazine is also published here.

Well there are a few things for you to check out, I'm off now to see what else I can start making, although that's all I seem to do, start. . .then not finish! 

Have a great week all,

Get Crafty with Creative Connections!

Hi all,

I've been a member of the Creative Connections Design Team for the monthly challenge for a while now, but we now have an exciting new blog to play on!

Each month will bring a new challenge, open to all to enter,  May's challenge is 'Weather', and you can see the Design Team's interpretation's here.

Not only is there a monthly challenge, but the Design Team will be contributing to the blog with ideas, stories, tutorials, musings, and much more.

If you haven't heard of Creative Connections, it is a huge online community of like-minded people, we promote each other, have events pages, classifieds, swap shops, and the fabulous Creative Crafting magazine, all free for you to join and browse.

From Creative Connections comes the amazing Craftfest, the biggest online Craft fair, that runs for a whole week.  The next 'Fest' is on 29th June to 6th July 2013.  You can come along just to browse or buy, or book your own stall. Just click on the 'Craftfest' link above.

You won't regret joining this great team of people, they are all about supporting each other as small businesses, and some of the nicest people I have 'virtually' met! 

And if you are a shopper, you will experience great customer service, attention to detail, and an individuality unrivalled on the high street. 

Well this was my DT piece for the May challenge, do you like the way it matches my nails?  It's a vintage image, printed on high quality matte paper, sealed, and set in jeweller's grade Ice Resin, in a gunmetal adjustable ring blank.

Especially appropriate for the beautiful sunshine we have had over the last two days, I must admit to being slightly beetroot around the arms, I was responsible with the suntan lotion, just obviously not enough. . .

I'm off to walk the dog in the last of the evening sunshine, have fun everyone.
