it's just an illusion........

i started making this this morning and nearly got to the end and crimped a crimp bead too hard and went through the illusion cord so had to start again!! i'm glad i did because i rather like it :)

(the inking round the edge really isn't that harsh!!! looks better IRL !)

365 challenge challenge

over on bubbly funk some of us have got ourselves into a challenge. it's called 2010 365 challenge not sure why it's called a calendar coz it's more like a journal!!! anyway,i've decided to join in with this one because you only need to write in a 4cm square each day and i'm sure even i can manage that LOL.
here's the 1st page - january.






i've used,inks paints and foam stamps and some scraps of paper......i've also added to this challenge for myself not to buy anything to do this journal - just use what i have.
here's the finished page :)



to do the title i used my cricut with a new fabby programme that dh got me for christmas -sure cuts alot2 :) took me a while because it was the 1st time i'd used it but i managed to move each letter to a different angel and weld them together,then i worked out how to cut a shadow for it :) all with the help of you tube!!
