ATC, TAG AND FLOWERS

I haven't dissappeared yet, Uni has been taking most of my craft time but it's nearly all behind me now. The last lecture is complete and only 2 assignments to go and I am done...Yippee!

I have squeezed in a little papercraft and even a bit of stitching but I can't show you the ATC and tag I made as my camera has been taken away to the west coast gggrr. I did however get some snaps of what I received....

Joanna @  Gracious Rabbit Bones sent me a Canoe themed ATC for The Altered Papers Alphabet ATC swap letter C of course, plus she sent me some extra goodies. Thank-you Joanna!

Kimmer @ Kaleecee's Creative Crafting sent me this fabulous halloween themed Tag for The Altered Papers Once a month tag swap. It says 'Come if you dare" and the little pullout out says "witches ball" plus some extra stickers. Thank-you Kimmer!

The Altered Paper swaps are lots of fun, if you want to try a little paper project these are perfect.

Now for the stitching I have one photo I took on my ipad of a pressie I made for Kylie @ Country Wishes for her Birthday. Kylie is one of my Friends in Stitching pals, it's an online group I belong to. Each year we make a birthday pressie for another in the group on behalf of the whole group.

The theme this year was eat, grow, cook! What a challenge!!

I had to make Kylie some flowers, like the ones in my header and said I grew them from my fabric patch

included in the package was a recipe journal, some fabric, some fabric lollies and chocolate!

Today is a public holiday for the Hobart show, it's too wet and miserable to walk around sideshow alley so today I'm blogging, about to go to my craft room for some stitching therapy....did I mention my hubby is away for 4 days...that means i can craft to my hearts content until I feel guilty that I should be doing those uni assignments.www.thealteredpaper.blogspot.com
