The Introverted Crafter

Made a card this week, with a tea theme. I'm actually off this week, so im annoyed I haven't done more, but I've got other things on my mind. Adulting gets in the way of creativity sometimes.  If you're asking whether the glass in the corner is there to hide an error, I'm not answering.  Also been working on the stitch. Less than 4000 black stitches to go! Until next time Ems

Busy making jewellery again this week. First off, here's the update on the stitch. Under 6000 black stitches left now.  Onto the jewellery. First, here's a pair of earrings, made using spacer beads, crystals and some resin beads I made with the leftover resin from last week.  Next, a butterfly necklace, made using wooden beads and a rainbow of butterfly beads.  Until next time Ems

This week I've tried dirty pouring with resin. The candleholders are made with the traditional dirty pour technique, which is pouring colours one over the other into a beaker and then swirling it into a mould. The container was made by pouring separate layers of resin then using an ice lolly stick to mix them.  Also, here's the update on the stitch. Under 8000 black stitches needed now  Until next time Ems

I'm down to under 10,000 black stitches on the pirates stitch now, but its still too many! Here's the update.  It is going to make it easier for the rest of the colours in the long run though.  I've also made some jewellery, a couple of pairs of earrings and a necklace. I've used various beads, including spacer ones, which I really like.  I dont often like pink, but I really like this. Got a victoriana vibe. Good way to use some of those individual large beads as well.  Until next time Ems

I've made a couple of cards this week, using some new stamps I got, as well as lawn fawn cloud stencils or dies.  Sorry for the poor lighting. Its getting to the time of year where its dark when i go to work, so artificial lighting. At least I'm getting better at colouring.  I've also been working on the stitch. Less that 12000 black stitches to go, and 20% of the whole stitch complete.  Until next time Ems
