Crafting for a Cause

The J52 week 10 prompt was chosen for the UKPC SWAP this month. Creating for a cause.

I went a UKPC member's idea of creating as part of friendship and sharing our crafting with others.

I used my new Timmy stencil for the first time along with his spritzer tool. I'm in love with all things speckled at the moment! I also used the new stamps I got as a freebie in a magazine recently, quite enjoyed using them which is unusual for me! I added a few diecut flowers and bling and all done.

As is the custom on our group, if a member signed up for that month's SWAP is unable to do their SWAP for some reason, we call on the SWAP fairy to step in.

Fortunately a remit was given to the SWAP fairy so all she had to do was wave her magic fairy glitter wand and hey presto all done.

The cause was Breast Cancer Awareness and the SWAP fairy used a cell stencil, apt but deep, with some glitter paste and the required pink ribbon to finish off.

12 Months Catch Up & More

Been a bit behind with the 12 Months in View Challenge due to all the other challenges starting this month, but finally managed to get my Recycled Challenge done.

Love my little angels made out of old Christmas Cards.


For the Documented Life Project - Week 3 we had to "Add an Envelope" received in the post.

I have cut up an altered envelope I received in a swap last year.

Now have 4 pockets in the front of my diary. Two are flaps/tip-ins and the other is flat on a page so it makes 2 further pockets.




Also I have done my swap card on the theme of "Ribbons" for the UKPC swap this month. I have mounted the ATCs I received from last months Exchange too.

Yes I had a bit of a crafty day yesterday....what fun.
