    900th post giveaway

    November 19, 2012 - By 

    I can scarcely believe that I’ve written that many posts!
    And even more shocking is the fact that you all are still here reading after all this time.
    Especially considering that I’ve been in quite a dry spell lately.

    With that said, I’d like to reward one of you for sticking with me by sending you one of my newly created scrap journals.

    All you need to do is leave a comment on this post, making sure I have some way to contact you if you are the winner.
    I’ll draw the winning name on November 27th.
    The winner will have their choice  of cover designs.
    Easy peasy, right!?!?

    Scrappy, scrappy

    November 11, 2012 - By 

    I’ve been working on loom knitting again. I have an order for 10 dishcloths and am expecting I’ll be getting a few more orders real soon. I decided to use some of my scraps of yarn to give some visual interest to these cloths.  Waste not, want not.

    As long as I was thinking scrappy…

     I put together the first in a series of journals. The cover is a print of one of my kaleidoscopes. I believe this one started as a rose.

    I love the look of all the different papers. It’s up to the recipient to decide how to use them.

    Well, not actually me in particular…just my book. 
    I decided to put together my tip-in swap book without the final player’s pages. 
    It was yet another UFO in my pile that needed to be completed. It’s not like I don’t have another spot for those tip-ins when I eventually get them..right?!?! Right!
    Thanks to Elizabeth for the handmade paper on the cover!!
    My favorite part of altered books…how they look from the side. 
    Wiggly, wonky pages. 
    Love ’em!!
