Hiya All

Hi All
I am home so I can upload all the photos that I have been storing while I have been at work.  I have completed several projects so here we go..........

This is a double decker matchbox with a calendar that can be hooked under the top matchbox.  It is for a friends daughter's birthday.


This is the Fall mini that I made for "A Lil Scrap Of Heaven" swap and my partner was Jamie


This is my "Mini Me An Album" swap for Betsy on YPP.


These are my T!m Holtz Swivel Clasp Charms "Junque Drawer Treasures"


This is the Toilet Paper Mini Album that I made for Deetle for a swap over on My Scraproom.  I used Kitchen Paper rolls cut in half instead of toilet paper ones.

I think that is all I have been "up to" lately.  I have completed my lunchbags for this month but I forgot to take photos of them.  I might have to un-pack them and take some before I send them off.  The ones for last month will be arriving with me soon.  Apparently they had flakers so I will be getting one of my own back.  I don't mind, but grrrrr to flakers!!!!!!!!!!!!

Much Love to All.........

Guess who is getting a cold?

Hi All

You guessed it.......MOI!! My throat feels like a razor desert.  Lemsip here I come!!

On a better note I put together and sent off my second lot of kits.  I can't wait to get them all back and start making a couple of minis.  I am so excited.  I love getting crafty stuff in the mail it feels like Christmas everytime the posty comes.

Here are a few pictures of my second kit.  I forgot to stamp the journal spots but the paper is there.  Oops!! How dumb am I, lol.


This is the second set I put together.  I had so much fun doing it.  I can't wait for the Christmas one.


These are the little baggies full of buttons, bottle caps and beads and a T!m Holtz Swivel Clasp to make a charm and some head pins to put the beads on.  I made this kit a little different from the last one.  Even though it is a different group I thought it would be better to be different.

I can't think of anything else to say my brain is filled with cotton wool now.  Pray I have a speedy recovery.

Love you All
Vikki

Irregular Heartbeat and Craft

Hiya All

I have been putting together some kits for a 2 part kit and mini swap on The {scrap} Beach.  I have put together 7 kits and will be posting 6 off tomorrow.  You then get 5 kits back and have to create and album for you swap partner using the bits in the kits.  Here are some photos of what is in my kits.....


These are the paper and fibre and ribbon and lace elements.


These are all the buttons and charms and embellishments that I have included.

I am so going to enjoy this swap and there is another one like it for Winter/Christmas and I really want to do that as well.  I think I have found another favourite swap.  Irene Cordova is an ace hostess.

On another note I have had an irregular heartbeat all day and it's getting annoying now!

Much Love
Vikki

Crafty Stuff

Hiya All

I am home for the week and I am enjoying myself so much.  I have completed loads of craft projects and got a load posted today and will be posting more tomorrow.

I have made and finished a TP Mini Album.  I made mine from kitchen roll tubes cut in half and decorated with My Mind's Eye Halloween Scary Sparkles Paper.


This is the front of the mini album,  I decided to make a hardback cover and binding all-in-one.  It got a little chunky but then I can never make a slimline mini.


This is the inside of the mini.  Lots of pages.  I used 6 tubes and 5 acrylic tags.  I think it's a beautiful work of art and i hope that Deetle (Dee Little) really likes it.  I have posted it today and hopefully within a week she will have it.


This is my favourite page.  I am not a fan of spiders but this one looks so good on the paper.

I also took part in a Lunchbag Upcycle swap and these are what I created, my theme was fall.



I have posted all but 1 of my blog hop prizes.  I will post the remaining one tomorrow.

I have more to craft and I intend to enjoy every moment.

I hope everyone is OK.  Love you guys.
