What I am doing...bit of a catch up.

 Hello Everyone, I'm just dropping in today to share an Altered Puzzle Piece that I made goodness knows how long ago. It has been  blogged before.

It's always been a favourite item of mine and as I was in the garage sorting my craft stash I came across the tin that I kept it in. The puzzle piece is from an old child's puzzle, my great grandsons that he lost interest in.

I have been sorting through a lot of my stash recently, haven't been able to do much as my right index finger is still out of action.

But finding this puzzle piece made me wonder if I should create a Fun Challenge Blog for all things small, like Inchies ( 1x1 inch square ) Twinchies ( 2x2 inch square ) Rinchies ( 1 inch round ) Altered puzzle pieces, altered Dominoes etc.

It will depend on how much interest I get really.

Now on to my recent makes...I decided to dust down my sewing machine and get a few Bears made. These can also be made in to Memory Bears from clothes from a loved one.

I also made a few Bunnies for a couple of my great grand children, again these can be made from loved ones items of clothing.

This is the Memory Bear I made for my great granddaughter Millie. It has been made from her Nana's jeans and some tops.

The Blue Bunny was made for my great grandson, he just wanted a Blue Bunny, this one isn't a Memory one.

The grey bunny sat at the front I made for a friend who is having chemo at the moment.

Thank you for dropping by my blog today, be sure to leave a comment if you are interested in creating small things and share with friends in case they are interested too.

Have a great day...xx

Taking a Break

 Hello Friends, it's been a month now since I last posted here, I just want to say I haven't left, I am just taking a break from blogging.

As you know I took over running Valerie's Tag Tuesday Tag Challenges when she was ill.

After 2 years, I decided to step down, I felt Tag Tuesday was not as popular as it once was, with less than a handful of entries each week and lack of input by the owner it was the obvious choice to close.

I discussed this with Valerie and she agreed.

The teams, past as well as present have been amazing and a great support to Tag Tuesday.

I'm sewing some soft toys at the moment,  I will pop a couple of photos on here soon, it's going a bit slow as I have an infected insect bite on my right index finger and it's taking ages to heal.

See you all soon.x

Another set of Faces.

 It's me, back again with 2 tags for Michele's "Faces" theme over at Tag Tuesday

The stamps I have used are from the same bundle of stamps that I bought from another crafter, I have used these before and I thought they would be perfect for Michele's theme.

Thank you to all that drop by and leave me such lovely comments. x

Faces

 Hi Everyone, I am just posting one of the Tags that I made for Michele's theme over at Tag Tuesday

I used a strip of water coloured card that was left over from another project, cut a narrow strip and added to it, on top of that I added the 4 stamped faces that I mounted on some lilac card.

The stamps I have never used before and unfortunately I do not know the maker as I bought them and a few others from another crafter when she was downsizing her craft items.

In my next post you will see a couple more tags using other faces from the bundle that I bought.

Do pop over to the blog and join in with Michele's them. x

Add Wings and a Crown

 Hello Everyone, I have missed joining in at SPA (sunday postcard art) recently. For some reason the blog will not let me upload my entry to the challenges. I have no idea why and for now all I get is to create a wordpress blog. So I apologise to all the lovely people that have hosted challenges recently that I haven't been able to play along with.

However Mandy has offered to upload future entries for me, yay.

It is my turn to host this week and I have chosen the theme Add Wings and a Crown.

I hope you enjoy my theme and I look forward to visiting your blogs.xx

Another for Pinkys theme.

 Hello Everyone, I finally found my missing tag, I had found it where I keep all my stamps, I must have bundled them up with my tag and packed it away, sounds silly, but it happens.

Plenty of Pink here.

A couple of days left for this challenge over at Tag Tuesday.

In the Pink

 To my shame, I am running behind again with my craft projects, life gets in the way sometime and I can't always do just as I want to.

So here is a quickie Tag for Pinky's theme over at Tag Tuesday

I do have another tag, but I can't find it right now, I think I have in a pile of papers that were on my work desk, which I packed away, so will have to go and look for it later.,lol.

Add a Postage Stamp

 My goodness, this last 2 weeks has just flown by hasn't it, although the weather hasn't really started getting warmer yet, the spring bulbs are almost ready  to bloom. I've noticed the birds are starting to collect their  nesting materials, flitting about with small twigs, leaves and other birds fathers in their beaks, quite lovely to watch.

For the next 2 weeks I am hosting the challenge at Tag Tuesday and my chosen theme is "Add a Postage Stamp"

Here are my Tags, I hope they will inspire you to join us at Tag Tuesday.
