Cutting and Sticking

I've found a nice chillaxing craft!
And have made some items like these!

Exhibit A!

For the second year running I'm exhibiting my crafts at Cornerstones Art Exhibition. It's open all week, please do call in if you're local! There's a big exhibition hall, a shop full of crafty treats and a cafe for a spot of lunch. You can find out more information here and here.
My favourite painting!
Some of my crafts in the shop.
Fun and fabulous!
Beautiful!
 How cute are these!

Crafty Times

It was really good at the second Shipley Alternative event this weekend.

There's a wonderful group of people working there and lots of people visited.

 Here's a couple of pictures of my stall.
 There was a letterpress machine so I had a go and made this poster.
Thanks to everyone who came along.
I am also part of a group called Craft Soup which has over 60 local crafters and makers in it now. We have contributed to this *drum roll* our first ever Zine!
In other news, it was nice to receive these two photos of my Peg It! sets in action.
I love seeing what my customers use them for.
And one last thing, I got this wonderful vintage yet pristine typewriter for a bargain price. I am looking forward to typing some letters to my pen pals! 
The X Factor is calling so that's all for now folks!

Random recents...

As you know, I love Liberty! I was very happy to hear that they have done a limited edition Hello Kitty Liberty Art Fabrics range. I was even more pleased to find some items in the 3 for 2 Christmas offer at Boots and I used my points to pay for the umbrella, shopper and purse!  
I'm pleased as punch with this Double Walled Travel Mug. It was reduced from £12 to £4.50 on a one of super sale day in a department store! It's perfect for the cold mornings. I can whip up a brew and put this in the drinks holder in the car! It's much better than carting around a big hefty flask. 
 The lovely Sparkle Accessories popped by my Lou La La page this week and we decided to do a swapsie. I sent her some Cath Kidston magnetic pegs and she sent me these lovely hair grips!
 I decided enough was enough and subscribed to my favourite craft magazine Mollie Makes with the offer to get this new Liberty book free!
 The Telegraph had a good offer this weekend with these two craft magazines included. There's lots of new projects I'd like to try.
