About Me

I am just a T### from EK,Scotland. Interested in most sports. Like to take photos of scenery in Scotland. Well they tend to be of golf courses, mostly ones on which I haven't even played.Would love to move to Florida. Don't listen to anything buttonsforbrains has to say on Florida though. I feel that working with so many oddities over the years has given me the knowledge to assist those with any work or domestic problem. With this in mind please look at the July archive and check out problems solved by myself. I try to laugh about life and what life can throw up. Just enjoy the blog for what it can offer you. Hopefully it can give you a laugh. I hope I dont upset anyone plus some of the stories may be slightly untrue. Since joining blogland I have also discovered a talented group of crafty girls. Listen to my music links and enjoy my varied taste.

Crafty Tip No 8


Do not try to make a crafty card without the correct tools. I have been studying real crafters like Buttons, Tigger and even Evil Edna for inspiration before I attempted making my 1st card.
I planned my design and it looked great (in my head).
I used all the correct materials like blog candy, buttons and pastilles.
However the actual putting the card together with the gentle use of glue went badly wrong. I forgot it was my hands that had to complete this task.
Yes the buttons kept falling off. Yes I forgot they had glue on them when I ate the dropped ones and yes I can still taste the glue. It was washable glue but it doesn't wash off your tongue.
Anyway here it is. It is called "Where did winter go?... this is a global warning"
Oh and it fell over.

Whoa that really is dreadful. Please do not think you will ever be good with your hands.
You should just stick to making childish fun of people and never visit a craft site again.
Raging.

looks great - any chance of doing a graffiti styled xmas card coloured in with wine gums, skittles, etc and outlined in bovril? If you get the time can you rattle up 7 of these for me?
