Sunday Sketch & Stamp Challenge

Sorry peeps I am megga late with this weeks challenge :( technology issues!!!

But we're here and this weeks sketch stumped me as I dont have an oval shape lol will have to wort that one out!

I'm still trying to use up old supplies but I saw this image on Lianna's blog the other week from Lilli Of The Valley and fell in love with it as her colouring is just beautiful in it, I actually thought she had used a printed image sooo professional!!

Papers-K & co., flowers-Prima, Punch-Martha Stewart, colouring-Copics

Precious Metal Clay

Before.....

......After

I got some new clay in the other day & seen as it was raining today I had a lovely play, I really ordered the clay to do a couple of Precious Moments Fingertprint Pendants for customers but I fancied experimenting as its a lovely material.

Random Random

Playing with my Copics again which is great as I feel my mojo coming back a bit, I think I'm trying to do to much with the kids, business & charity, also my hubs has just moved back home after a two year stink of working away so I have decided to try let go a bit more of the third.

I am very much in the mind of, if i do it myself it gets done and its hard letting other folk take on rolls with the charity but I really have to, we have some great new people on board and they are very capable of taking some of the work load off me :) I'll keep you updated lol
These are some of the gorgeous gemstones that we took delivery off this week, I just love the earthy colours, might have to hang onto these ones and order my lovely customers in some more lol It's my birthday today and just thought i'd pop this wee guy up cause I made him yesterday and her really made me smile :D

Wool Supplies From Sirdar & King Cole Have Landed

We have been up to our eyes this weekend with the recent deliveries of wool and wow there are sooo many lush ones to choose from, I'm not a huge knitter but even I have found some stunners to play with :)

The lush new Sirdar Indie wool has been my first choice :) it is lush, we only managed to get our hands on two colour ways as they have sold out but not to worry we have dibs on the next run which should be arriving beginning of next month

I've added this little cutie in just because I managed to get a play with my Copics this week and cause she ROCKS!!

Sunday Sketch & Stamp Challenge #37

Its my turn for this weeks sketch!! don't laugh I am rubbish with computer programs so I have to draw free hand :) Anyho I hope you join in with us as we the the wonderful My Favourite Things sponsor us this week and some of the team used their lovely digi stamps

I took delivery from the lush Sweet Pea Rubber stamps this week and just had to play!! this sweetie I'm afraid has sold out & is on re-order, not that I am surprised as she is beautiful and great to colour in. The papers used are from the Inspire me flock range that we have in store & the embellishments where just old stash I had from yonks ago.

Looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with :D

Sunday Sketch & Stamp

Can you believe how fast the weeks are going by, some kind customer informed me today that its only 104 days till Christmas!!!! now that's just wrong lol

Anyhoo its time for my pic from the challenge, I am late but I was away to the Muse concert over the weekend and I took the wrong laptop with me so couldn't post my pics

I went different this week as I normally use the main pic for my rubber stamp, this time round I used the stamp as a border down the left side :D

Hope you all join us this time around as its great fun getting to look at all your work x

Cullen Crafts Gone Bead Mad!!

As you can see we went a bit bead mad this week!!!

Just too many beautiful gems to choose from :D

Lush Beads Arrived At Cullen Crafts

Took delivery of some truly beautiful beads this week :) Its busy busy trying to keep up with my beaders appetite but also means we can bring you lots of great new beads & the best bit is seeing my beaders get all excited about the new stock(I have to be pc by saying beaders as I now have quite a few men making jewellery!!)

You don't really get a great idea of how wonderful the colours are in this range as ,y pics aren't the best lol

Below pic is a before and above was the result of me having a play, they are 20mm so make a great size pendant when top & tailed with some Tibetan silver findings.

Below is the smaller size, just as vibrant but ickle & cute!

Sunday Sketch & Stamp

Our design Team have a great sketch once again to play with :) Its so wonderful too see so many of you join in with us all each week!!!

I haven't played with this little cutie for age's and I got some lush American Crafts ribbions during the week so I just had to use them :)

Sunday Sketch & Stamp

That lovely time again :) and boy I really got stuck into this challenge sketch, I adore the Sweetpea Rubber Stamps from Lanette in the US, we took delivery of them at the shop a couple of weeks ago and I haven't had a chance to play so this was perfect and the sketch was just great!

Hope you head over via the button on the right and join in with us :)

Gorjuss Christmas

I finally had a play with the new Gorjuss winter collection :) They are just super sweet and for some reason I am taking to making black cards lol not very christmas themed but still lush!

You can find these babies in the shop for only £1.65

New Stock Arrived

Just a peek as some of the lovely new stock we've had delivered :D

Sunday Sketch & Stamp Challenge

This time we have a fabbie sketch and we also had some great digi stamps to play with, as a design team we do get some real fun stuff to play with and these stamps are no exception!!!
Head over to the blog and please join in :)

New Gorjuss Girls & Cullen Crafts

We have the new lush Gorjuss Girls range in stock and its proving as popular as the first little lot, we will be running a comp where you can win a pack so watch this space but in the mean time if you want to get your hands on them sooner they are available for £1.65

I also thought I'd share some pic's of how we are getting on with the extension at the back of the shop, we have the last lot of griding on the back wall and are in the process of coming up with ideas for the middle but so far its looking great!! Unfortunately the glitter floor isn't holding up so we are looking for something else, I'm not upset as it was fun to try and has been a real talking point so we have our thinking caps on for something just as funky :D
Hope you are all having great summer hols c
