I have made a folio cover for our secretary. I made a patchwork base using some squares I ordered off ebay a long time ago and added all kinds of things, including machine and hand stitching.<br />
<br />
I am quite pleased with it but wish I had made the piece longer so it fitted the folder better<br />

using papers from colorbox and a freebie from one of the crafting magazines, I have made this lovely box in a bag (you can find the template <a href="http://www.thelittleblueroom.com/2009/09/make-take-monday_28.html">here</a>) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
again found this on pinterest - I am becoming so addicted to it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
obviously the box is inside so you cant see it, but its the same colour as the flowers which I used a punch to make then stuck on some gems, I have used craftwork cards sentiment and used a stampin up punch to make the frame for that</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have filled it with pink and blue crafting items for a lucky crafting friends birthday</div>

recently within our WI we asked people to donate old books that we could give to guide dogs for the blind (not so the dogs could read them, so they could sell them)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
someone donated an old family law book that was tattered and out of date by about 500 million years, so thought I might use it to recycle</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
now instead of crafting, I have become addicted lately to pinterest, and dreaming of all the fabulous ideas I could make!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I saw inspiration <a href="http://www.100layercake.com/blog/2011/12/06/how-to-make-a-gift-bow/">here</a> and thought I would give it a go</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
however, I had to change the dimentions slightly to fit on the page, when they have advised to use 11 inches, I changed to 10, therefore had to make all pieces 1 inch shorter, in future though I will keep the middle piece at 3 1/2 inches as mine is too small</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as I am also a lazy crafter, I have been playing with SCAL and made a cut file of all the pieces, so I dont have to stand over the guillotine cutting out the pieces</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I most definately will be making more!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have used some more pages making things - I will eventually get around to posting photos</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
thanks for dropping in</div>

my first attempt at making a message board, have been and purchased some more material now to have a serious go at these, is a blank canvas frame, covered with 2 layers of wadding, then covered with material and ribbon for the criss cross, buttons sewn on and then another thinner board covered with material on back and then all stapled together, very simple, but am concerned now that I wont make my money back on these now I have bought dearer material!! can see me just using as gifts for friends and family!</div>

oh I just love this lili of the valley image</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
had it for ages but just never gotten around to using him</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the paper too, struggled to cut this as its double sided but have managed to get both sides used on this card </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used some nice white card and dry embossed lines around the square as a frame for the image</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added a sentiment from craftwork cards and some rafia just to finish off</div>

have been making some more brooches!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
really love these, so therapeutic to make, cut out on sizzix machine with very thick felt - so difficult to get hold of!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I actually have used the hot glue gun to hold these instead of sewing this time, then sewed the pin to the back and glued onto a leaf from the thick felt (think its almost a cm thick this one!</div>

Had to make a birthday card for someone who likes parrots!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
found this a bit difficult to think of what to do really, so went to trusty old greeting card factory for an image</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
teamed this up with paper from bo bunny, really hurt to cut into this as its double sided and I just love the colour and texture of it - but am trying to get out of my addiction for beautiful paper!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
decided on an easel as I havent done one of these for ages and just added some ribbon from stash and green card and buttons, used some red thread on buttons just because I thought it was a bit too 'green'</div>

I needed some clipboards for our WI but didnt want to spend a lot of money on them, went out shopping today to get some but couldnt see anything suitable, then in the 99p shop saw 5 of these clips for 99p (who would have guessed it in the 99p shop)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

my auntie works in a factory and often brings me home old card that would normally be thrown away, but knows I like to mess around with card and papers</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut 8 pieces of the card 11x9 ins and glued them together, then I covered back and front with papers I brought home from America last year (not sure of the make, they were in a pack of 50 for about $7) I then did a bit of paper piecing by cutting the lovely ladies off the forever young cartridge on my cricut, the clothes are from bits of scrap in my scrap box</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then I lastly added a clip and actually am quite pleased with how they turned out!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
would have liked to do a bit more embellishing but then I wouldnt be able to use them properly as would be a problem when writing on the paper</div>

I am going to use up some of my papers before buying some more, although to be fair, I have been so tempted today to buy some more of the british themed paper, but I was good and resisted!!</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
The backing paper I have used for this card has been in my stash forever! and I even cut into a 12x12 piece for this small card. The image is from the cards for men magazine, which I also have had a while.</div>
<div align="center">
I printed the sentiment off and layered all onto green card</div>
