Jak Heath Download for Meningitis

This is the card I have made using one of the downloads from Jak Heaths Blog 'Crafter's Kitchen' and la pashe/Create & Craft fame.
Jak is selling this download to raise funds for Meningitis.
Please go and checkout her blog and buy the download! This is an 8in sq card, I printed the Snowman digi download and used pro markers to colour him in,then sprayed Crafters Companion Spray and shine over him, then backed him onto plain card and cut him out.
The velum backing paper is from the Christmas Making Cards Magazine using Nancy Watt's Designs,the sentiment tile from there I used thick embossing powder to give the enamelled tile look. I used the lovely new punch from Creative memories and punched the stars out straight from the card.
Please Help Jak with her very worthy cause!!xx

Green bag!!

This 'green bag' is made using the Pinflair kit, it comes with the jute bag,fabric,card,buttons and twine/yarn.

I have made this as a gift for Christmas and Im going to fill it up with small gifts of what the recipient likes, so yes..there will be chocolate in there!!

I made a pocket for one side, as there is plenty of fabric, attaching using pinflair bookbinding glue, to hem the edges and pinflair glue to attach to the bag and the pocket, it isnt stitched on, I used a fabric pen to make faux stitches. Finished the bag by stitching 2 different shades of yarn along the handles.x

Re-Use Recycle!!!

Well...after a few days of rain it is gloriously sunny,chilly,but beautiful blue skies!
I promised my little daughter we would plant up her little wellies, as she loves them but has grown out of them! So today we have been very green,using peat free soil! she has planted a few snowdrops,crocus and narcissis, so all she has to do is wait and watch them appear in her wellies!! I thought snow drops were a good option, as however harsh the winter, they poke their heads up early in the year.xxx
