Test Tube holder.....

OOOOoooooo I got to have a play with the Taylored Expressions Test Tube Caddy yesterday for my DTDF post.......I love it!!

So easy to use and put together.....I used one to hold one of the test tubes I had made for my Craft Fair...the tube is quite fussy so I kept the holder pretty simple....yummy Christmas papers from Imaginisce.....the next one I have plans for a bit more decoration!

Some people are worth melting for.....

 So I don't know if anyone else is like me.......Pinterest Boards full of ideas and inspiration but never actually doing anything?

Time for that to change for me and I have been going through my boards and trying out some different crafts, recipes and more.........I have seen many versions of the melted snowman bauble and what with the Frozen phenomenon.....yes I admit to being a fan too!......I thought I would have a go at making some...

I had some red felt which I cut into thin strips and then snipped the very tips of each end to make the teeny scarf, then folded over and put a wee stitch to hold it....peppercorns for stones and this one has brown card for the arms but I have since gone out into the garden and snipped one of my bushes to get proper little snowman twig arms!....last but not least a wee piece of orange card rolled up for his nose.....Oh and the snow is salt!

I then made some wee tags with Olafs beautiful quote and attached to the bauble with a wee bell and some lovely ribbon!

I hope you like!

Will be back tomorrow to share some more makes for my Craft Fair!

Merry Christmas...

Hopping on quickly to share my make for today over at DTDF

I am limiting myself to browsing online at the mo as I frantically finish all my makes for my Craft Fair on Saturday!

I saw this technique either in blogland or Pinterest....(I spend far too much time on both!!).....and have been itching to try it out...for a first attempt I am pretty pleased with it and it doesn't take long at all!

First I covered my cardstock with Faded Jeans DI, then I dabbed white ink over the stencil ( I used Memory Boxes Bubbles) 

The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions Little Bits of Christmas Stamp set....which I have fallen in love with and has been added to my ever increasing wishlist! And of course a little bit of Stickles to finish off!!
will be back soon to share some of the things I have made!

Do You Wanna Build A Snowman?....

I have been after a set of Build a Snowman stamps for a while now and managed to find these on Ebay

with the intention of making some little sweets that I had seen on Pinterest for my craft fair....the Christmas Puddings I did last year were far too fiddly and took ages... and now that they are made I wanted to put the stamps to some other use too.........

I always like to make some packs of wee 4x4 cards too as they always sell well at the fair and last night was messing about and came up with this little card....I love it and after sharing a peek last night on my Facebook page it seems a lot of other people do too! So I will be spending today making as many as I can!

Have a lovely Sunday!
