Crafts for Charity Directory

Mick from Shpangle Jewellery has created a new Art and Craft Directory that also gives to Charity.
Some of you may have noticed this button on my blog and website and wondered what it was all about.

You can enter your website or blog page or both or your online shop listing by simply making a donation to your favourite charity that is listed or contact Mick to find out if you can add your Charity to the list.
Instead of paying big companies for advertising fees, you are giving your money to a good cause and joining lots of other fabulous crafters and artisans.

This is a new project and needs help and support in spreading the word!!
Please tweet, facebook and blog to tell your friends and fellow crafts people.
Thanks! :-))

For the Giveaway, you can choose any of the above or have a browse in the shop and the winner can choose any or tell me what they would like on their keyring!

To enter just leave a comment telling me which is your favourite or what you would like to see on a keyring!

I will draw a winner next week on Sunday 16th May :-)

Craft Robo

I had considered getting a Craft Robo ages ago and decided to get a big shot instead, which I do actually love, but feel limited to by the available dies!
As one of the main dealers of the Craft Robo - MDP Supplies is local to me, I decided to go and take a look at one in action!
I must say I was sold pretty much straight away!! I am so happy with my 1st results!

This was the 1st card cutting that I did. It took a while to get used to the settings and things, but I am really pleased with the results!
This was an idea I had at the back of my mind for a while, but I needed the cat shape!
I have done the Twilight one in vinyl and it just need transfering to any smooth surface, but i have yet to decided where I will use it!!
And probably best of all, Clothing vinyl, which makes the possibilties endless!! :-))
I still have lots to learn about using the Robo, but I guess I will have fun trying!!
Anyone else use one??

Custom Bookmarks

A Twitter friend Sam asked me make some bookmarks for her website for a giveaway prize!
She runs robertpattinsonuk.com and is a huge fan like me!

I made these 2 and she was really pleased and then went on to order

this one too!!! :-))
I hope her winners like them too!
I love custom makes!!

Summer Flower Hair clips

Well the sun has been shining and it has inspired me to actually use the felt and my big shot, that was originally bought for this purpose!!I am making a load of flowers for various uses and these were the ones I used on snap hair clips.

I also made a couple of barrette style hair flowers and I have also added some to party bags!
Hopefully will make lots more if they prove to be popular!!

Through the power of Twitter I have made a load of new friends that are as mad as me about Twilight and Robert Pattinson!!

You would not believe this!!

Another blog post from me and another animal one!!
I have seen it all now......This Squirrel was sunbathing on our back fence!!!

Minstrel (Super Bunny) had been scared (not so Super) by him earlier on!


What a way to relax!! I have never seen a squirrel so relaxed and he let me get fairly close to get a photo too!!

Anyone else had creatures do strange things in their garden????

Super Bunny takes a break!

Super Bunny has been a bit naughty lately and had me chasing him round the garden to get him in, earlier on!!
As you can see, now that the sun is shining, he is enjoying a little break and a sunbathe!!


Life is tough being Super Bunny and when the sun is shining, there is nothing better than recharging the batteries!!
Sorry, for the lack of updates from Super Bunny, but will try and add some adventures at some point!! :-)

Polymer Clay Makes

I finally got round to blogging again!!
I just loved opening my blog to Robert!! :-)
Here I have been busy with the Polymer clay that I have not used in ages!!!



This set also has matching earrings, that were not quite ready when I took the picture!
I am going to be working on my local Market to see how that goes and I am taking these along!!

Hope to making some more soon.

More pics

Rob signing my gift for Emilie by Mistake!!

So Cute.....He laughs when he realises!!

Me handing him the cufflinks!!

Glamglass meets RPattz

I had a fabulous couple of days in London, where I met up with a couple of girls, Kerry and Kaci, who are huge Rob fans like me!
We got to Leicester Square at around 8.30am and it was pretty much normal with a few barriers for the fans to wait and the crews building lighting stands etc.
There was around 50 people already there and some claimed to have been there from the day before.

The atmosphere was incredibly friendly and we chatted with some of the security people and TV people.
The day didn't drag at all and we people watched and laughed and laughed!
We watched whilst they added the signs and then at 5pm they closed off the front of the pictures and started to lay the red carpet!!



I am at the end of this photo with my present balanced on my copy of Details Magazine!

Posing for Pap shots here

My Gift for Rob!

I had gone with these as a little gift for him, not knowing if I would get a chance to give him them, but after what seemed like forever and a few near misses, he eventually was led in our direction. He was making his way up the line and I could see he was a bit overwelmed with the crowds, so I said "Relax, enjoy it and don't forget to breathe" and he gave one of his sideways smiles! I then said "I have a present for you" and He said "really". He then came over to take it and his security were looking over at me when I asked if he would give Emilie (de Ravin) hers too. He put my cufflinks in his pocket and started to sign the box that was for Emilie! Then he said "Oh that's Emilies!" He signed my details magazine and then had a photo with the girl next to me.
I was soo close I could not resist leaning to have a sniff!!
He smelt like heaven!
As he came back I said "Rob, I just want to say Thank You, you have made an old gal very happy" and he gave a quick smile and was off!!

I have to say he was just as good looking in the flesh if not better and that he was very genuine and lovely!

Tom Felton from Harry Potter was another of the stars who was very genuine and friendly and came over to give autographs.

Holly Valence was another who acknowledged the crowd and after I had shouted "love the shoes Holl" Gave us a peace sign and a smile!

I have a memento of my own too, a large Remember Me sign that was on the railings!!

Still smiling today and very pleased that I went!

Mothers Day Present

My Mum was admiring one of pendants the other day and asked me to make her one. I decided to make her this little set for Mother's day!!

I hope she likes it!

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!!

OK I admit it!!

I am a huge Twilight Fan!!!
It has been since last December after reading all the 4 books within a week!!
Stephanie Meyer just pulled me right in!! I have re-read them several times!! I feel like I am 17 again!!

Today saw the release of the Trailer for Eclipse which is the third in the series!!


I decided to make some Jewellery that was inspired by Twilight and I must say it has been very popular!!

The Bracelet is Turquoise and the Ring is Moonstone!
Anyone else admit to being Twilighted!!!????

A Card for My Mum

Decided to make a card for my Mum this year!!
I am still trying to decide if this OK?

I expect to have another go at cards at some point as I have lots of bits and bobs and my Daughter loves to make cards!!
My kids will be away on Sunday but back in the evening!
Hope everyone has a lovely Mother's Day on Sunday, whatever you end up doing!!

Eyefund Scarves

The Eyefund has expanded their range of goods to include these fabulous pure silk scarves!!




They are available from my Folksy shop and all proceeds will go directly the Eyefund.

What is the Eye Fund?

Can you imagine not being able to see?? I need glasses to see in the distance and I struggle a bit with that!!! As an arts and crafts person, I would not like to think what it would be like to lose my sight!

The Eye Fund - A charity to support people losing their vision

The Eye Fund aims to provide much needed counselling and aid to those who are losing their sight due to degenerative diseases, such as Retinal Cone Dystrophy, Cataracts, Diabetic Retinopathy, Retinitis Pigmentosa, Neurological Visual Impairment, Retinopathy of Prematurity as well as Age-Related Degeneration and other eye conditions.

All the artwork is designed by Simon Sherry and his story is at the above website

Please support if you can!!

Cabochon Bangles

I have been working with Cabochons, due to my lack of firing......it's too cold to go outside to my studio!!
I have also been buying some blanks and cabs and decided to make a few bangles and see how things go!
This is a sample of some of the ones I have done so far and they are listed on Folksy in my shop.
There are Abalone Shell, Turquoise, Tigers eye and Amazonite Gemstones and Millefiori Cabachons with different settings!


I hope you like them!

Is everyone getting back into the craft fairs soon!? We have our local ones starting up again soon! Check Stallfinder to find your local events and for those on the Wirral or Merseyside areas, look for the Floral Pavilion events or contact me for details.

Hope everyone is well!

Typical they are at school! It looks great in the garden, but not good on the roads.

Hope everyone takes care out there.
Off for a snowball fight when the kids come home :-)
