Father's Day Cards at Fred the Needle


Well here is another date for the diaries people....
On the 30th of this month (August...just in case you are too busy creating to know the month :) ) I will be teaching how to create the 4 Father's Day cards that I have published in the most recent copy of Stamping and Papercraft. The class is during the day 10:30am till 12:30
To sign up call FTN and leave your details or walk in and see my work on show...it's everywhere! lol
If you sign up I suggest you choose the papers and ribbons you want to use on the night...colour is your own preference, we will get atleast one card done...faster artists will get more done, if anybody needs help with picking papers I'm always there half an hour early :)

hope to see you there!

how charming :)





Today I visited my friend Sue who is very busy with her pages for the techniques book we are putting together on "ATC Secret Society for Altered Artists", my pages will be sorted out by Wednesday (just in case Jen is reading this :) )

When I finally got to sit down I finished 6 of the femme charms...well they are actually bag danglers now, I hope the girls in the swap like them, I had fun making them.

I also finished my inchies for my swap and played with another domino and my fave "Zetti" stamp....I am thinking this domino would make a devine broach!

...and I played with some pewter embellishments and fusible film :)

my latest pieces for PaperArtsy DT





I had such fun making these, I even got my two boys to go on a hunt in the front yard for perfect twigs and sticks.

The eggs are stamped onto dominos :)

oh what fun!!!






I did my cream and gold ATCs for Scraptivate's ATC swap....I thought I would use a little lace seeing as I have a draw full of it :)
I also did my ATC for our current "Target Artist" on my Yahoo group (ATC Secret Society for Altered Artists)
I also began to decorated a devine chipboard butterfly with fusible film...I think it needs some beads


I got my very first Krafty Lady mould yesterday...and had a fab time with it, I only had one little packet of Fimo but used that up super quick and when that was gone I got out my hot glue gun and a few glue sticks and used them to fill the mould...I even made some crayons by melting some of the kid's old broken ones into the mould...seriously I am sooooo impressed by the quality of the mould am in the middle of doing a wish list to get more
