Our theme for this months Craft Mad Card Swap was monotone  We had to make a card and tag for our partner. I hope she enjoys them. They were fun to make    

Beaded Ornaments

Image
I enjoyed beading these ornaments.  They are on a plastic base so I think they will take  handling and hanging on the tree quite well.   

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to my family and  friends. I hope it is a very happy time for you all.

Snowglobe

Image
Another find in the craft cupboard. This is a kit from Blooms n Lace. It is a 3 layered snowglobe which lights up. I have modified it slightly from the original plan but still very happy with it .     

Beaded Wreath

Image
Amazing what you find when you clean out the craft cupboards. I bought this kit last Christmas but with recovering from one surgery and waiting for the next one then recovering from that my year has been a bit up and down. So beading has been my friend for the past few months and I have a few projects to show you in the next little while.  Better late than never   

Beaded Motifs

Image
I was gifted this set of Christmas Motifs to bead.    They are very cute but I am just not sure what I will do with them  but I am thinking maybe an embellishment on Christmas cards or perhaps gift tags. Watch this space.   

Craft Mad Monthly Card Swap

The theme for the second part of our  Craft Mad Monthly Card Swap was a Clean and Simple card. This was my idea of what was required.

Our theme for the Christmas card and tag was Gnomes  or Snowmen.  I decided to make one of each. I have used Hearty Craft 3d die cuts  on both the card and the tag.     

Christmas Cocoa Shop

Image
I know it is still November but never too early for a Christmas project. and a very cute one it is.  . The Cocoa shop only measures about 4 inches square  But it is so sweet and so lovely to assemble.

Our second theme for this swap was Gift Card Holders so I thought I would keep the Christmas theme going. I sed my Zing Klik n Kut machine and a Dreaming tree project to make  my gift cards and matching envelopes.

The theme for our Christmas component for this swap was White on White. I loved the way this card and tag ended up.  I used Couture Creation embossing folder , Spellbinders Poinsettia die  and an unnamed leaf spray.  

Beaded Serviette holders

Image
I came across these beaded serviette holders on the internet and as a lot of my friends do a bit of entertaining  I thought they would be a nice addition to a Christmas gift. Quick and easy to make  and so many lovely serviettes around these days to fill them.    

Magic House

Image
This is a Bookend Kit  It is a magic house.  It was a really interesting project  to build. The detail in it is amazing and it went together so easily  which made it a real pleasure.  Lots of photos  

Building Block Flower Pot

Image
This is a building block kit, very similar to Lego.  It was a birthday gift from one of my family . Lovely to build, only quite small but very cute.   

REMEMBERANCE DAY

Image
Remembrance   Day 2025  They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old  Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn  At the going down of the sun and in the morning  We will remember them.                                                                                             

Miniature Project

Image
I recently made a few miniature building projects.  I really do enjoy doing this type of craft. This one is a lounge room with a small garden room on the side.   

Craft Mad Monthly Card Swap

Image
 As I was recovering from surgery, partner agreed to a bit of a variation  on the themes for this month. The first swap card was a male theme which was fine.  The second was a predetermined colour theme which hadnt been announced  when I made the card but as chance would have it  I was pretty close with the card colour  but not the tag. My partner was happy anyway.
