Memo board

This is for a swap hosted by Ju on Crafting Corner I made this using a canvas so I would be able to put pins into it. I covered it using 12 x 12 papers. The pins I made by punching out a flower shape and gluing it to the head of a map pin - pretty easy stuff!



my board is for Nicky

I hope she likes it!!

Bottletops!

These little babys are for a bottle top swap! I didnt want to do 'just' the actual bottle tops so I made 4 of them into fridge magnets! The final one I incorporated into a 'vintage' postcard for a bit of fun!

Random Acts of Kindness

"Give Away and Pass It On" - Random Acts of Kindness Alert - my turn to pass this on after participating with Nancy. The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations so please read carefully:



- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.



- What I pick will be just for you.



- It'll be done this year (2009).



- You have no clue what it's going to be. It will be something made in the real world and not something cyber. It may be a handmade card, something lovely made out of paper, beads, or a random treasure (like candy!). Who knows?



- I reserve the right to do something extremely strange and, in return, all you need to do is post this text into a blog of your own and make 5 things for 5 others. Please e-mail me with your address. My e-mail address is in my profile.Won't this be fun????Please remember to post your own RAK in order to make the game complete ladies (and gents :o) ).

Birthday card

Well I've had a few days off this week so had a MAMMOTH birthday card making session! Now, those of you that know me or are familiar with my cards will no doubt know that I have no idea what colours match. Im not colour blind (maybe I just have bad fashion sense LOL) but I have no idea what clashes and what tones go together. That was until I discovered Stampin up cardstock! I love it as it ALL MATCHES!!!!!



This card has been made using their cardstock and their ribbon! It also uses their stamps - Happy Everything and From the Garden. If your interested in any of their products you can contact Shazza or Jo

Thanks for taking the time to look

:O)
