The Introverted Crafter

Still limited to my crafting stash at the moment, so I decided to mix and match two tonic dies to make a card. Here is the result  I think the fairies fit in there quite well. You could always do a starry background and make it so they are looking out of a window as well.  Been working on the stitch as well. Block stitching at the moment, which is particularly boring but it gets a nice amount done quite quickly cos you're not having to figure out where the next stitch needs to go. 33% down now Until next time Ems

So, this week I've done something a little different. This is before... This is after.... Obviously there's two of them! These are my mums bedside drawers, which are over 30 years old and now have a new lease of life.  I've also been working on the stitch. 31% down now. Until next time Ems  

Yes, more jewellery this week. I've made a couple of simple bracelets this week.  I've also been working on the stitch, 30% down, 70% to go.  Until next time Ems

Made a few earrings this week, all of the hooped variety.  I've also been stitching, obviously. Here's the latest progress.  Sooooo much left to do! Until next time Ems

August has only just ended, yet the daylight hours are rapidly dwindling. Soon, I will yet again get to the stage where the majority of my daylight hours will be spent at work, and I will scurry to and fro in darkness.  Speaking of poor lighting, I apologise for the bad lighting on the pics this week.  Here is the update on the stitch. 27% through now.  I've made a card this week, using mainly tim holtz stuff. The only thing that isn't is the flower die, which came free with a magazine.  I did try the flowers in red and pink at first, but they looked like something else that was decidedly not floral!

Oh I'm getting fed up of my craft stuff being packed away. I'm surprised I haven't caved and bought other stuff. OK, I did buy a few jewellery making items but they were replacements for things used up. I've made a couple of pairs of earrings this week.  I've also been working on the stitch. Over a quarter down now.  Still haven't got anything concrete aside from the scarabs, but its getting there.  Until next time Ems
