The Introverted Crafter

Sorry for the lack of a post last week, but not only did I have no wi-fi but no mobile data either! The irony is I made tons of stuff as I had a week off work. So, now that it is back here is a bumper post to make up for last week. First of all here is the update on the stitch. I have finished page 3 and made a start on page 4. I've also made a birthday card this week. I started with tissue paper on white card which I coloured with a Lindy spray. I cut a whole in this and added a blister, so that I could put a butterfly in. I then coloured some Snipart with Lindy's Squirts and added a paper doll.  I've also been trying to decrease my bead stash at the moment, so I have made a couple of necklaces. I've used some beads that I use a lot, as well as some that I had no idea what to do with until now.  My mum's workmates know that I have a slight craft obsession, and one of them gave her an old spice rack to see if I could do anything wi...

All you need for this is some copper tape, chibitronics led lights and a battery. As you can see, pressing the avengers symbol on the building lights up iron man.  Finally, here is the update on the stitch.  Until next time Ems

Another short one this week I'm afraid. I was planning to have a piece finished, but I've only had two days off this week and I've been working on the garden so time has been restricted. So here's a sneak peek Here's the update on the stitch.  It doesn't feel like I've done much this week and to be honest I'm a bit disappointed in myself. I know the next two or three things I've gotta do so I have to focus on them.  Until next time Ems
