Perpetual Calendar

My instalment for Bubbly Scrumptious was done over 2 weeks hence why I didn't post anything up last week.

My take on a perpetual calendar with a difference.....you can find the post about HERE

Happy Bunny Birthday Card

Another card from me, this time for Bubbly Scrumptious with the lovely March kit that has just gone on sale.

It's very tactile with the cute piece of fabric and fibres. I have flocked bunny's ears and used glossy accents on his pads and eyes as well as some buttons.

Stitching of course features on there somewhere but eeek...no lace or distressed papers...can I feel those withdrawal symptoms coming on yet LOL!







More soon peeps. x

Cutey concertina book

Well it was my day for the Bubbly Scrumptious project and I have to admit this one was a close call. We've had various things happening this week on the personal front that have been a tad stressy so crafting was put on the back burner for alot of the week.

I can happily report that the personal issues are much better than they were albeit I have to say I am certainly not impressed with Social Services but hey ho!!

I'm showcasing the brand new Bubbly Funk March kit that goes on sale on the 1st March. It's a bright, funky kit and seemed just right to make this little mini book. The body of the mini book is only 1 sheet of 12" x 12" so it's really quite cute.























Right hopefully a tad more crafting this week.

Catch you soon.

Hearts on Valentine's Day

Happy Valentines Day to you all. I have to admit it's not something Tony and I are too worried about, we've rarely exchanged cards or given each other gifts.

I bought this little heart shaped box in Hobbycraft a while ago and it seemed perfect for my entry last week on Bubbly Scrumptious.

I made a little heart shaped mini book to fit inside, the individual hearts are threaded onto ribbon and slide up and down so you can view the pages, they also slide up together quite well so they fit in the box. I won't be giving it to Tony so I guess it will end up on my little shoppie at some point.











Have a fabulous day lovelies. xx

Favourite CD Holder Book

The next instalment from me for the Bubbly Scrumptious Blog, a CD holder. I have used CD pockets and concertinered an acetate spine before wrapping some corregated card around the outside. The pockets are held in with single bind-it-all rings.

Full instructions are on the Bubbly Scrumptious blog.







I have many projects on right now, some I can't mention on here because they are gifts for peeps who may possible wander into my blog but I am thoroughly enjoying making them.

I've been feeling pretty creative since I started on my Get Organised for 2009 campaign, even the house is looking clearer.....long may it continue....ha ha!

Menu Planner

Ok, better late than never, I know!! I was meant to pop this on here on Monday but I haven't actually turned my laptop on much this week and thats where all my photos are.

I'm trying to be the "new organised Di" this year (one of my resolutions) and to some extent it is actually working. I am finding that my work and creative time seems to be more productive if you know what I mean and that's simply because I always seem to have a tidy desk.

I have also received some orders to make stuff....woo hoo, that doesn't normally happen so I've a few things on the agenda to make. I've started the first project and thoroughly enjoying it knowing that someone actually wants it.

Caroline told me about the little shop widget on the right hand side too so, at some point, I will upload some piccies of stuff I'm putting up for sale....whether I actually sell anything will be another issue ha ha!!

Right onto my creation for tonight, it is my project this week for Bubbly Scrumptious made with the gorgeous February kit.

I normally plan a weekly menu for Tony and I so we don't have that normal scenerio...."what do you fancy for dinner tonight?" ......."oh I don't mind, what do your fancy?".....you know the type of thing. Well we don't have that anymore. So going along on that theme I thought I'd make a menu planner.



More soon peeps xx

Birthday Desktop Calendar

Not been around much for blogging this week, I just haven't actually had time to make much but hopefully I'll be able to get more done this week.

My entry for the Bubbly Scrumptious blog using the new Bubbly Funk February kit. I don't think it's available yet so keep your eyes peeled for it on the shoppie.



You'll find the full instructions HERE.

Travel Journal

This has been uploaded to the Bubbly Scrumptious Blog over the last 4 weeks and this week sees the final part so I can upload all of the pages here now.

I made this for a friend who is going to China this year on a holiday of a lifetime. She's loves writing so I guessed she would appreciate a journal to record her special holiday.
































More soon folks x

Another November kit project

Caroline sent through this fab little board book with scalloped edges in the November kit. Going with the Christmas flow I covered it in the papers from the kit and added some lined paper to make an unusual notebook.

The little tag saying Christmas notes has been filled with Glossy accents to give it an icy feel.

Santa's Grotto

Another of my creations for the Bubbly Funk November kit.

I thoroughly enjoyed doing this different take on a memory box.

The outside is quite simply decorated but the inside opens out to a magical Santa's grotto.

The pond was cut from mountboard and filled with glossy accents. Whilst it was still wet I sprinkled a little glitter and fake snow to finish.

More details are on the Bubbly Scrumptious Blog.

Bubbly Funk November Kit - Christmas planner

With changes to the Bubbly Scrumptious Blog I am now able to post up my creations a little earlier than before.

The Blog is now also the Bubbly Funk shop blog so it is open for public viewing. There is some fab stuff on there so why not pop over and take a look HERE and there will be new posts every week day so check back whenever you can.

Huge congrats also to Nattie, Kaz and Anna who will be joining Kathy and I as designers for Bubbly Funk.

Right, here are the 3 projects I managed to make from the kit:
