Friday Freebie - Under the Mistletoe

Hi Everybody,

The gift this week is staying with Christmas and it is from Lisa Horton called Under the Mistletoe.

In this set there is a beautiful slimline embossing folder and four dies that will match it perfectly.  

The magazine is full of ideas and inspiration that you may like to try as well as ways in which to use your pack.

So just for leaving a comment with your FULL NAME you can be in with the chance to win this and have it in your own crafting stash for ever.

If you have never won then please look at the way you enter and check that you have left your full name.

If you haven't then the comment you leave will not be entered into the draw as it is difficult to notify a stranger of their win, especially if it comes through as anonymous .... need I say more ???

It doesn't matter where you live or if you have own before I am happy to send the pack to you.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Bead Work

Pokey Tools Eight
Hi Everybody,

Today my PC is going to the PC hospital to get fixed  and I will have to manage without it until it is back home again.

Instead I am adding some photos of some more bead-work that I have been doing and this time it is making some
 Pokey Tools


.

Pokey Tools Six



Once my PC is fixed completely I will do some videos again making cards.

All of these have been made from beads
 that I have had for quite some time and I am very new to making these

I don't profess to be any type of jewelry maker  but they are all sturdy and pretty and will do the job in question.

I am willing to give these away as they are only practice pieces so please let me know  if you would like to have one of them.

Email me  with your postal address to

More tomorrow ...

Earrings


 Hi Everybody,

Just to prove that I have not been idle over the past few weeks I wanted to show you some of the earrings I have been making.

I got all my jewelry bits and pieces from Amazon and following YouTube videos I made all these from beads that I already had in my stash. 

I was wearing some when I took Ruby to her playschool and my dog walker lady liked them.

I sent her the photo of the ones I had made and she bought all of them from me in one go.

Sally gave some to her daughters and another pair to the lady who works with her walking  the dogs, and told me I should ask more for each pair. But I am only learning how to make them and so at the moment they are cheap to buy.  

I used glass beads and some ceramic ones also and the end results are very pretty.

What do you think of them ???

More tomorrow ...
