Monday January 9th 11 pm.....

 A wise old owl lived in an oak
The more he saw the less he spoke
The less he spoke the more he heard.
Why can't we all be like that wise old bird?

Not sure where l heard or read this but loved it so thought I'd share :) well yep I'm blogging it again hahahaha l want to do so much but the hours in a day just wont let me at the moment maybe when kids are back at school and things settle down l hope.
Well today l made some cutie pie bookmarks but l cant remember where l saw them or what gave me the idea so l am not going to show them tonight l think l will stick with the easy stuff.  Well the day started at 6 am once l got hubby and the eldest off to work.  I generally are up early every day and try to do a few things before the kids are up and fighting hehehe.  So l started on some pendants l purchased from a fellow blogger lm sure she will notice them :P Instead of using images l have purchased to put in them l wanted a little different so here goes many of you might think omg these are ugly but you know what they might be but lm right in saying different arent l :) Sorry about the shadow l have yet to work that out on the new camera :P




Then l did some magnets or pendants to use in flowers or something :) 


Shown above is half l made the rest are on magnets drying...... Then all this before breakfast :) l think l did rather well hahahaha.....

Well l have also had a sculpt head on the go lately and tonight l got into it again she doesnt look like much yet but each one l do has a different look a different expression then by the time l hair her and paint her shes different again!!!


I get to this stage and l cant wait to get her done lol but theres a lot to go yet ugh! Well on saying this l am off to bed and l will be back tomorrow l hope and write n show some more :)

January 6th 2012

Well l know its about time l stopped reading everyone else's blog and started to type in my own but l really cant think as to why anyone might even think l might be a smidgen exciting compared to all the things all these other great bloggers do and share but hey.....what the bugga l may as well give it my best shot LOL.  And talking of blogging if you have a Australian Blog we invite you to come and join our facebook page and tell us all about you and what you offer!!!! Click on the label below and get in there with us!



So what have l been doing well l love playing with my bottle cap embellishments and l have really got into ummmmm owls!  So purchased some really cool 1 inch graphics (with license) and make some lovely owl and bird botle cap embellishments and brads and also some pendants have been made.  Heres a few piccies for you to look at.....
 Can make this lil guys l love them! A bookmark or they look great over the spines of my Creative Memories Albums and each one you can have personalised eg.  The one above is my mum as she is a lover of owls.  I can make pics up and have names placed inside for people and tell me colors you like or if your into butterflies or music etc etc.  Great gift also! I sell them for $9 plus postage (Australia is $1.20 oversea buyers need to ask me) Just send over a email :)



The top pics are large paper clips with a charm l put on and l love them!!!! Look so pretty in your hand crafted albums or paper albums off the page projects all sorts of things!!!  I just get a run on things and keep on going, l get bored easily too one day lm doing this the next lm in the garden making mushroms or statues hehehe ;) more of that later !


These are cute and can be used on bookmarks, chains or keyrings and even break of the ring and used in cards or pages.  Great idea and a cute gift also l sell them in different pictures but only limited stock in this design.  


A great lot of bottlecap embellishments l get into and can make in many pictures if needed.  Normally amke in a set of 6 and sell for $5  plus  post.  It varies to how cheap l can get the bottle caps for :) the last lot like above are just caps l bought new and flattened myself and a hint to those who might not know if you want to flatten your own and have a sizzix die machine (large red one) place them face down and pull the handle down and bingo! a flattened cap ;) Thanks to the following link l found l learnt this so l cant take the credit for it!!!!
