I've been making a few things this week, so I'll just get on with it instead of blathering on.
You can see here there is a large white space still to do, but it is all the one colour!
Something came up on Beads Direct about angel earrings, which were done with pom poms and tiny angel wing charms. I had pom poms, but no little wing charms, so i found these ones instead. Originally i was going to attach the eyepins onto the wings with jump wings, but they hung down too low. However, i kept the jump rings attached, and glued the eyepins to the wings - this meant that the little jump ring was positioned in the right way to be a halo.
From angels to fairies. This is a tobacco tin. I papered the back and coloured a wooden door with Lindy's sprays. I added some coloured fibres, then die cut some Tim Holtz fall foliage. I also added a few fairy charms, and some flowersoft, as well as putting some flowersoft in a tiny jar.
This is pretty much all from the latest craft box, which as you can see was a vintage sewing theme. The paper was just a tad too small for the tag so i added the measuring tape. I stamped the crackle stamp in plum, before trying to use the stencil (didn't work at all) and the Singer stamp (disappointing as it took a lot to try to get any of it on the paper). I inked the edges with abandoned coral distress ink then used brown and black distress crayons. The sewing doll is dual layered, one in red embossing powder and one in silver. I added some art stones coloured with alcohol ink, a pair of scissors, some holograph pieces and some brads, as well as a snipart sentiment coloured with rose wax, and some flowers.
It's been a while since i have spoken about my resolutions, since i had almost given up. Whilst the money side of things isn't great at the moment (too much spending - although i have not dipped into my savings) i have been losing a bit of weight since i came back from holiday. I finally figured out that little changes make the difference.
