And I will make you a little Thankyou card to go with it, and sign it of course lol

Well, I have had a fabulous afternoon, crafty shopping for items for my secret project no.3... 
It's a secret (lol) so I can't tell you what I bought, but all will be revealed when it's completed, I have done the ground work, so to speak, so it should be ready in a couple of weeks (you know I'm a perfectionist!)

Anyyhoo,  Happy Bidding and Happy Crafting!

Hi Everyone

OK, so you all know how much I love colouring in, Tilda & Edwin and faffing with my crafty stash...yes?

Well here are the fruits of my labour over the last few weeks.... 

I absolutely loooove this project, loved designing it, loved colouring it, loved stamping it... you get the gist lol

This really has been a labour of love too and I have (as usual) paid close attention to detail so I hope you can see that when you nebby at these phoros taken from my phone (I really must take my camera to the shop next time lol)

Anyway, without keeping you in suspenders any longer... Here are a couple of photos...

This creation is on my eBay site now so if you like it, want to bid for it, here's the link.. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/honeypotcrafts2010

My Secret Project - well, one of them ;o)

Good Evening Everyone

I have soooo loved working on this secret project, mainly because it has taken me so long to finish it, but I have worked on it as and when I had had time to and not rushed it to completion!
This was something I wanted to do for display in the shop, but of course it incorporates lots of my favourite things, such as the Magnolia Images, Distressing, Stamping and lots of colouring in!

I bought the individual 5" letters in March this year, whilst I was at Olympia, yep, waaaay back in March!

Each letter has been distressed with Faded Jeans and Walnut Stain several times to get the colours just how I wanted them... especially as the inks just got soaked into the letters, I kind of liked that as it gave more depth.

I have them stamped the swirly pattern on the edges of the letters with brown ink and added glamour dust accents to them.... painstakingly with a quickie glue pen!

You all know how I love my colouring inn and I have probably spent more hours than an average working month colouring all these lovelies in... there are 5 shades of brown in Tildas hair! And three in each set of clothing!

Anyhoo... this is now displayed in the shop, high up on one of the walls so it can't be touched lol
The photos are not particularly good as I did them on my phone, but I promised  you photos tonight, so here they are :o)
PS - It is straight on the wall... It is just so big it was the only way I could get all the image on the photo! lol

I hope you love it as much as I do :o)
(Onto secret project no.2 now... it's already started lol)

Happy Crafting!
Love

Ideal World Shows...

Good Morning Everyone!

Well, I have been up with the larks this morning! The sun is beaming and it looks like it's going to be a beautiful day (fingers crossed!)

I have been busy preparing for my next few shows on Ideal World (yep, not Create & Craft this time, I will be on Ideal World)

The shows are both tomorrow (Wednesday) and I am on at
12noon and 5pm!

I can tell you it will be a Christmas show... I know, it's June! but if you are anything like me (running around at the last minute) it's the early bird that gets time to relax and enjoy the festive season lol

So, I will hopefully be able to bring you some inspiration along with the fabulous, stunning products that I will be showing you.

I love Christmas, and particularly making Christmas cards, it's the time we get to go mad with glitter glue, glitter and use all the festive colours :o)

So, hopefully you can tune in and remember to send us an email, who knows, you could win one of the first Christmas cards I have made this year!

Happy Crafting!

Love

Good Morning Tatty Teddy!

Hi Everyone

Just thought I would pop a photo on of a card we made at my workshop the week before last..

I love the Tatty Teddy stamps, cute and cuddly and a joy to work with!

Here I used my Cricut to create the big ovals, Tatty Teddy stamp, Aqua Markers to colour him in and various punches and of course some glitter glue to finish the flowers... as usual, my obligatory inking of the edges! lol

Hope  you like it!


Happy Crafting!

Love
Phill
