Fodder Challenge 2022

 Hi Everyone!

I'm back today with the remainder of my Fodder Challenge projects. Hope you like them.

Day 6 - Pocket Fodder Book with Karen Elaine. This is a perfect size to keep my quirky watercolour birds in, and I added one as decoration on the cover.

Days 7 & 8 - Photo Transfers on Buttons with Jane Chipp, and Vintage Photo Tag with Ricki Midbrod.

Day 9 - Prayer Flags with Dori Patrick. I used paper gelli prints instead of fabric on mine, with ribbon and stitching

Before I go, here's a little crochet project I recently finished. The kit was a Christmas present from my son, and her name is Morag The Highland Coo.

Thanks so much for your kind visit here today.

Some Mini Journals For CJS 20, 21 & 24

 Hello All. I hope you're having a good weekend. I was thrilled today to get my first dose of the Oxford Astra Zeneca vaccination. I just hope Hubby will be able to get his soon too.

On Creative JumpStart, we learned some ways to create mini books, which will come in quite handy to use up gel prints.

On Day 20, Amanda Trought showed us some simple cuts and folds to create little doodle journals.

On Day 21, Andrea Chebeleu showed us how to create different watercolour meditative patterns and marks on both sides of paper, then to cut them up to make into a journal.

On Day 24, Diana Trout showed us a few techniques with watercolour, perfect pearls and stencils, creating patterns on both sides of a piece of paper, then folding and cutting to create a maze book.

Thanks for dropping by today,

Crafting with Gio Gio Instagram Challenge

Hello Again!

After yesterday's mega post, I thought I'd bring you up to date with another Instagram challenge I'm taking part in. My Italian friend Giovanna aka GioGio is giving us a prompt every alternate day.

I'll start with the prompt for 7th April, which was Pocket. I made a teabag pocket, to put a tag into.

9th April Prompt - Spring Is Sprung. My little bird made another appearance.

11th April Prompt - Steampunk. I used some Carabelle Studio stamps. The background was made with Distress Oxide inks.

13th April Prompt - Books. I used some book page gel prints to make two mini books, then decorated them with Carabelle stamps and stencils.

15th April Prompt - Animals. I made a background with my 5x3" Gelli Plate, then used a cork and white paint to create the sheep, adding details with a black Posca Paint Pen, then hand-writing the sentiment and adding some dots. I might save this for Hubby's birthday next month ;-)

Thanks for visiting,
