Summer.

So I started this blog to have a place to upload all my cross stitch & other random craft projects to, so my poor twitter feed didn't have to put up with them.

Here's my first project that got me back into stitching.
Both the cross stitches were packet ones bought from Spotlight, & I bought the postcard from the Anglesea Newsagency. The rest is from various $2 shops. :)

Boxes!

green paint over paper mache box, with ribbon glued in place. The floofy bit is 5 lengths of ribbon glued at the middle (to the middle of the box) and then folded around and both ends glued in the same spot. Then two shorter bits arranged in the same manner glued to hide the ends.


Just stating the obvious. A balsa wood box I rescued from a friend. Painted it all purple, then used masking tape to create the space for the silver lines. The letters are plywood from a $2 shop.

Now that I've prettified these, I have NO IDEA what to use them for.

Yes, I am a crazy cat lady.

I found these scrapbook kits at The Reject Shop, $2 for a collection of 6 backgrounds, stickers and transfers all with a cat theme... so I had to make one.
The phots are awful quality cos they were taken on my really ancient phone camera and then printed using my regular old printer. But I still like the finished effect overall.



Paper stuck to a plywood board from Spotlight, basic kit from the Reject Shop and a wooden cat figurine from somewhere, I can't remember!
