Deely Boppers!

Or whatever you call them....these little bunnies were just that, now they're decorating the top of these little boxes.

The box is a Sizzix die...the Cookie Box, I think it's still available through Amazon

Cute!

Rabbit, Rabbit...

.. Rabbit... What more do you need.... a rabbit and some wheels!

Love him! he's one of a limited edition of four (which are still works in progress)

October...

.. That's the theme for this months challenge on the Crafty Individuals blog....

It's simple, just create something with at least one Crafty Individuals product and upload it here...

I still love those bunnies.Iv'e used Halloween colours but not Halloween stamps.

I've Been...

..rummaging through my new bit box.... I now have three, one for altered odd embellishment stuff, one for pieces of patterned paper and the latest is full of die cuts..

 

bits from trying out a new feather die....

 

a tag and a piece of packaging...

 

I made up a whole load of flowers using punches and my favourite leaf stamp from Hero Arts

 

and you just have to love those bunnies from Kirsty Neale

 

I just love bit boxes!

I Told You

it was all about bunnies....though there's nothing warm and cuddley about this chap.. he's downright scary!

 

This is my March offering for the UKStampers postcard swap.....maybe someone will like him!

Feel free to hop on over and join in.

Easter Bunny...

....Hop on over to The Ribbon Girl blog and check out their March colour challenge, you  have the chance to win a £10 voucher from LOTV and £10 to spend on loveliness from The Ribbon Girl shop. This month the colours are green and white...I did think about doing something for St Patricks Day but I'm in bunny mode at the moment..

The bunny is a piece of clip art from one of the Dover books.The box lid is trimmed with faux bling.. I love that stuff...it comes in wide strips and can be cut any way you like.. lovely pom pom trim.. you can find everything you need here...

the crown is made from the inside of a toilet roll....cover the inside with patterned paper, the outside with some embossed paper and cut the points.

Isn't he cute!

Bits And Pieces...

..Twice a year I head off into the Yorkshire dales for a long weekend crafting with seven other people..( I've just returned from trip number nine)...each time we have a theme, exchange handmade gifts and collaborate on several projects. November 2012 saw 'The Bit Box Swap'...

These are some of the bits I received

And this is what I made with them....a shadow box.

It's all about rabbit and hares for me at the moment!

If you would like a random bit box (an A4 envelope) then leave a comment and I'll pick a random winner this time next week.

Eat Cake....

 The lovely Clare Rowlands(Molly Bloom) came to visit and showed us how to make these fabulously cute cupcakes. I added some name tags and they will be on my table for Christmas day, I'll fill them with after dinner chocolates
.

 

I just had to do something a little different too...

I just love that bunny!

Merry Christmas

 

It Was....

...Love at first sight when I came across the illustrations from Alice Palace...I thought they would make fabulous rubber stamps ...
So taking a chance I emailed  and asked if she had thought about it, the answer was no but she was interested.... the upshot is she is now designing for  Crafty Individuals and I have them in my hot little hands.....

I am now delighted to say that I will be contributing to the Crafty Individuals blog as part of their team 

 

 

I thought I'd start with an altered book.. these are the covers, front and back. It's a small book around 15x10cm, I've ripped out about three quarters of the pages and will cover the rest with hand coloured papers.It will be an on going project so keep popping back to check on progress.. I'll be using Alice Palace stamps of course!

Just Sometimes....

....it's good to get out of your box....It must be years since I've drawn or painted anything (why draw when you can stamp) but the theme for this postcard swap is Hand Drawn Animals... so I did and here he is... yes he's a boy rabbit, no idea why but he is.
Maybe he's sad because he's wearing a crown and a flowery necklace...... though I don't think that's a reason to be sad.
