Long time no blog

So nothing crafty has been achieved for a number of reasons, the wedding, lack of mojo but most importantly college. I am coming to the end of the term so its a mad rush to finish essays and so on.

But i was sent some vouchers from my brother for making his wedding stationary to spend with the loverly Angela over at Angel Crafts. I hit the shop as soon as i could and filled my basket with lots of bright fancy pants, sassafras and websters papers, Mmmm, very nice.

So Angela dispatched my order pronto as usuall and i set to work staright away as i had scrap fever and needed to get it out of my system. It worked as the next day i wrote 2800 words on an essay.

Here is what i achieved. I couldnt bare to cut into these gorgous websters papers but i did, ouch



Also here is a little sneak peak at clock i have altering. I found this nasty pine clock in a charity shop and distressed it with Blonde Moments crackle glaze, god i love that stuff, genious.





Anyway, thats it, back to the books

The criteria was

A = Any new stash

N = Notes or journalling

G = glammer or glitze

E = Embellishments

So here is my LO. This wasnt my original one but it went slightly wrong with the stitching so i had to come up with this one pretty fast.

No Brainer

So yesterday i started research for my next big essay and as the morning went on i was getting more and more stressed, tired and angry. I realised that it was just not going to work that day, i couldnt use my brain. So i needed something simple to do that required no thinking on my part, a no brainer, lol

So i decided to make a LO about my Uni achievemnet so far, one that celebrates how i was feeling yesterday basically. I sat and created for 2 hours, a record for me and you know what i felt very relaxed and optimistic last night.

we even went for a nice walk as a family, did a spot and gardening and make plans to dig over the veggie plot today.

So moral of the story. when in doubt, do some crafting, lol

So here is my LO. You may have noticed a theme developing here, pink and green. Now these are more my favourite pinks and greens.











So i plan to make another LO tonight if i can as i want to enjoy this happy feeling this weekend and leave uni behind until monday, lol
