Handcrafted gifts,

Very very busy week

Well I am in the middle of sorting out my craftroom. In an effort to get a craftroom suitable for creating tutorial videos.

In the meantime I managed to get a few items created. So in the last 10 days I have been very busy.

1st we spent a day in Llandudno watching the Tour of Britain and I created this Digital Project Life layout using Project Life Everyday Adventure Digital download

Then I spent most of the next few days, sorting out craft stuff, and feeling quite stressed about how I  am going to get everything packed ready for the upheaval of getting the room ready to be painted and then get new furniture in.

So was quite pleased to spend time at Met madams which gave me a little bit of crafting time, where I was able to try out my new Gift Box Punch Board. Which I am totally enamored with. Its ace and this cute stack took less than 20 minutes.

I also bought the paper peircing templates that go with the Oval framlits. Now I must admit I hate paper peircing, and have never enjoyed it. I always ended up with less than sucessful results and it always took too long. After trying the templates, I was amazed at how easy it was and I was really happy with the results.

I have also been working towards the start of classes in Northwich, Cheshire and full details will soon be on my class pages.

Bye Bye for now

Well I quite often trawl through you tube for ideas and inspiration. anyway I found a lady called Angela Holt and this amazing video

You tube Finnibair inspired canvas by Angel Holt

So anyway my Mum is an avid non crafter,although she is actually a very good artist, but when I sat her down to watch this she was inspired to start doing a version of this. As was my sister and myself. As I was printing of some vintage images for my Mum, I thought could I do something similar digitally with Stampin' Up! downloads.  I did not use My Digital Studio I used another digital editing program . as you can use Stampin' Up!s digital downloads with your favorite softwear


So heres is my 1st one all items used are Stampin' Up! downloads. A list of all downloads will be at the bottom.
