Ok, so I confess, I've dropped a bit behind with my magazine shout outs, so some of these mags have been out for a few weeks now so you might need to move fast if you haven't got them already and you want them. The first shout out is for Simply Cards and Papercraft 121 which has been out since the beginning…
It's my favourite post of the week, time for a bit of Art Journal Sharing Thursday. My Art Journal Share this week is all about another habit that I'm trying to turn into a regular thing and that is sketching. I've shared a couple of sketches here on my blog in the past, but I would say that I'm not a confident sketcher,…
Ok so it is a bumper read-a-thon this weekend! I'm looking forward to reading... Creative Cardmaking 64 Which is very pretty in pink this month! I went to the circus with my makes for kids in this issue. They are very bright and all you need to make them is some coloured card and maybe a few dies or punches. Hope you…
Hey Gorgeous Bundles of Arty fluff, I've been a little distracted recently. If you read my home-themed Art Journal Sharing Thursday post from last week you will know that my partner and I are in the midst of the house buying rollercoster ride that is the crazy London market at the moment. Think over-priced rabbit hutches, things rarely coming to market but when they…
Another magazine shout-out and today it is for the March Issue of Craft Stamper. Have you seen the cute little cover stamp? Very sweet.

It is magazine time and here is what I will be reading this weekend... Well first is some catch-up reading with issue 119 of Simply Cards and Papercraft which came out in the first week of January.

I have my reading all lined up and there are two new magazines out that are on the list: Get Stamping 6 is out with a lovely nature-inspired stamp set. I…
So how many sleeps is it now? Not many and I still haven't made those mince pies. I bought all the stuff I needed last weekend but just haven't put them all together yet - Job for this weekend I think! Well, in between mince pie making and eating (they won't last!) I shall be reading... The new issue of Creative Cardmaking…
Hey, hey, hey, would you Adam and Eve it? It's the weekend! Well that kind of snuck up on us again, or did it just snuck up on me?
