Well, as the title says it has been a long, long time! I cant believe the last time I posted was 22nd May!! Well I can believe it as a lot has happened since then!
The day of my last post I remember getting very naggy at my Mom as my sewing machine wasn't playing fair, it was very hot, and I was 38 weeks pregnant! I was gearing up ready making plans to go see the Olympic torch come through Shropshire the following week and maybe even a boat trip at the weekend.....well none of that happened!
At 39 weeks pregnant I went into labour (very long labour) and finally my little princess was born! Emily was born at 23:08, 28th May 2012.
So my life has been consumed by this tiny human and at 3 months old I am finally starting to think about carrying on with some of my likes and loves!
I haven't been getting very inky recently but this is changing!
I have joined an Art Journaling class with the fab Kaz Hall. I went to the first one last week and loved it!! I have since done a couple of pages but they need some tweaking and some finishing off and then I will blog them!
I'm getting excited with my birthday coming up as I know my Darling Mr Man has promised me my yearly crafting shopping spree....I have a mental list building in my head! I just will have to make sure Kaz Hall isn't about as last year my budget was spent in 30 seconds flat!
I have also been doing some making and been playing about with some canvases......
This is a mini canvas..I have covered in Craft resist paper which has been stained with white picket fence. i then taped round the edges to seal it and cover my lazy corner cutting of the paper! The bird cage is a Tim Holtz die cut out of his papers and the salvage sticker of the butterfly stuck on top. The letter is grungeboard and then stained with white picket fence. I added some buttons from docrafts and also the winged heart which is a charm from beads unlimited (they sell loads of great steampunk bracelet charms which are greats as features on projects and fairly inexpensive as far as steampunk goes!).
I have a few more half finished upstairs and they will, along with the journal pages, eventually make their way onto here when eventually finished!!
Well that is all for now....a long post but well overdue...I have missed the last few tags of 2012 too..so i have some catching up to do but may start in September a fresh with them!
Right Ta ta for now!!
