Country View Crafts Goody Box

I have spent ages contemplating whether or not to buy a goody box from Country View Crafts. It costs 14.99 but for the life of me I couldn't find a single review of one, bar a small blurb that someone loved the contents. So I bit the bullet and bought one. As always, delivery was almost instantaneous. I ordered it yesterday and it arrived this morning. Here are the contents.



Some wedding cake embellishments.


A wave shadow box.

Some ten second studio metal sheets - 12 in total, all A4 size


Three ten second studio moulds


Some embellishments. I like these as they will help when I get stuck for ideas for male cards


Some christmas tree shaped cards


Some double sided tape


Some glittery ricrac braids - green and silver


Some christmas flowers


A magazine. This came with it's own freebie, which was a project to make a recipe book


A project book, There are some gorgeous things in here


A lime shake n spray. Should be interesting!


Two wood mounted stamps. 




A bunch of papers. There are some beautiful designs here.

Overall getting a goody box is a no-brainer. You get so much here and, while admittedly it is from older lines, that is not necessarily a bad thing, especially for somebody who has not been crafting for years. All the stuff in here is new to me, and I can genuinely say there is nothing here that I don't want to use. I think my favourite items here are the tensecond studio things, and the shadow box as that was a complete surprise. 

If you like the look of these (obviously contents varies but there is a list of what you can get on the site) then you can find it here

What to do when you hit a wall?

Sorry guys, this is gonna be another pic-lite one. This is for two reasons. The first is because I decided to be a complete idiot the other day and crack my head open on the door at work, so I have to take things easy for a couple of days. The second is strange. I woke up the other day and it was as if someone had flipped a switch. All of the self-confidence that I had built up through my crafting over the last year has disappeared - just like that. I've spent the large majority of my life thinking that I am not good enough; in what I do, what I say, in short, in who I am. With crafts I was finally starting to believe in myself. So it is very hard at the moment, as I feel that I am right back at square one. I am hoping that this is temporary, and that I will soon feel myself again. I have to remind myself that I am very early in my crafting journey, and there are bound to be bumps along the way. I am aware that it is probably linked to my current state of high anxiety, as susta

Altering again!

My craft mojo came back! I decided to treat myself the other day to a new paper pad, and chose G45 Steampunk Spells. Graphic 45 papers are expensive but boy are they worth it! I wish I'd got into them sooner as there are some older pads that are gorgeous, but unavailable now. Anyway, once I got the pad and overcame the urge to just admire the paper and do nothing with it, I got to work. I decided to try to make something to enter into a couple of challenges, namely the  Craft room something old, something new challenge  and  That's Crafty! Girl power challenge . The first thing to do was to decide what to make. I was going to do a card, but then I found this: This was a cutlery drawer that a friend gave me. To be honest I have been using it to store sharpies in, but no more. Here it is now: What a change! I started by painting it in black acrylic, then got to work on each section. I used the Clockworks paper for the background, cut out some clocks fro

If you leave me now...

A colleague left this week, ready to start her police office training, so I made a funny card for her. I found the definition on Pinterest, then decided to do my own line up for the inside.  I've also been working on the stitch. Here's the update. Not as much done this week cos of Christmas.  Until next year,  Ems
