Mum's 60th card.

Yesterday it was my mum's 60th birthday,we're not seeing her till sunday-which is a good job because i've only just made her card this morning!!!
I've decided not to put her age on it because i'm pretty sure all her other cards will have it on!!

Little necklace.

I've made this little necklace for a cousin who's 3 (sounds odd saying i have a cousin who's 3 when i'm 40!!)I was thinking of a string of beads but since she's young i didn't think that was a good idea if it broke!! her mum asked for a necklace,which again given her age i thought was odd,but there you go!!!
i decided to go with chain and a few beads-these are on wire so they shouldn't break.(fingers crossed!)mum's taking it down to Plymouth on Monday!

Milliande catch up!

not really much of a catch up!!......just catching up with blogging the ones i've done!!

Milliande day 3

I'm doing well-i've just finished my day 3 and i haven't missed a day yet LOL
Day 3 had us making a print block-i made mine from mount board and i used watered down acrylic paints to print with. I tried 'neat' paints but they were so sticky it was leaving a layer of mount board on my page!!
