The Introverted Crafter

Someone i know had a little girl this week, so I made a card. I used the clouds from the lawn fawn platform pop up add on, and a stamp and bow die from my stash, as well as a tim holtz alphabet die set.  Here is the stitch update. I wish I was quicker because I have two more I want to get started on! Until next time Ems

just made something simple this week, as I wasn't feeling particularly creative.  I've also been working on the stitch. Here's the latest update  Another colour I am pretty sure I will run out of. good thing I have my stash. until next time ems

I got the spellbinders advent calendar for Christmas this year, and one of the dies was a ufo, so I decided to use this as inspiration.  I used the ufo, along with tim holtz dies for the trees and sentiment. I also added drops in the corner to make it look like i tacked the poster to the wall.  I've also been working on the stitch.  until next time  ems

I used the build a margarita glass this week, with  some mermaid stamps for a birthday card. I wanted to turn the glass into a sort of hot tub for them (nothing to do with me being jealous that my neighbours have a hot tub!) the background was made with distress oxides. the banner is also a new die, from the spellbinders advent calendar  I've also been working on the stitch.  until next time ems

I am still practicing beadwork, with varying results. This is what I made this week.  I've also been working on the stitch. Another colour down!  You can see it is really coming together already.  Until next time Ems

Its that time of year again, it's lawn fawn grab bag time! For those who don't know, lawn fawn are a craft company and every year they do grab bags, the profits going to a nominated charity. Here's what was in my grab bag this year.  These are coloring stencils for a stamp set.  The dies for the same stamp set. Be a bit of a bugger if they didn't add the stamps wouldn't it!  Oh no, here they are!  A build a margarita die set.  Festive banners die. Always a useful thing to have.  A large let's celebrate die. Again, useful for a quick card.  A stitched maple leaf  die. Ironically I could have used the autumn leaves recently.  A winter wonderland arch die.  A slide and surprise die. I always like the mechanism dies, and this is worth over 30 bucks by itself  A falling leaves paper pad  Sentiment stamps that go with the goose die.  An embroidery die. I'm toying with the idea of getting the hoop die now.  Pin badges  ...
