These are the final pages of my deco book... I finished mine to get me in the mind set of working on someone elses - getting back in the mood...
really pleased with how this came out - using lots of my favourite things - bit of PaperArtsy, bit of Tim Holtz - mask, inks), glimmer mists, a butterfly, lovely agapanthus stamp.

Etsy restock
Its been a while since I restocked my Etsy shop - other things take priority - but this week instead of just parking myself on the sofa and watching TV in the evenings I've been multi-tasking and sewing at the same time.... every time I do this I'm reminded how much I like sewing! And making these little embellishments can get quite addictive!
Click the 'jofy' button below the Etsy panel on the right to see shop. I've created little embellishments for use on cards and scrapbook pages.. or whatever you want to use them on (I used a couple to mend a hole in scarf!)

Craft Stamper November
This is a sneak peek of one of my pieces that is in the Craft Stamper magazine I mentioned a few posts ago.. not allowed to show more detail: you'll have to buy the magazine to see more. :o)
When I was shopping earlier in the week I resisted going into WHSmiths and taking photo's of it on the shelf but that was only because I didn't have a camera on me! lol There's still time before the next issue comes out........

Box + Kitten
I'll try to not let this blog turn into a Lola appreciation site! (yes, her name is now Lola - not Mabel, Mabel didn't flow!) but how cute is this photo!! lol ... I'm putting this photo up to show what her bed is made out of.... I've learnt from past pets that a cardboard box is just as good as a nice new bed and this just isn't any old box - this is a box that contained Bazzill.
gorgous paper + gorgous kitten - perfectly suited!

Hopefully it will somehow teach her that paper is good, special and not something that should be chewed or sat on!(she's already chewed the corner of one of my 'house of cards' (see previous post) cards. bad cat. bad cat!)
