Paper Beads

I had a little spare time yesterday and wasn't really sure what I wanted to do... I have this mini album idea floating around in my head but not enough time for that, So I decided to try and make some paper beads to maybe use as charm's on my mini book.... so this is what I have after my little bit of crafty time... The mini is possibly going to be quite vintage so it will probably be just the brown beads I use, but it was fun to try other colours too....

These are quite fiddly for me and made my wrists quite sore but if I only do a few a time I'm sure I'll be fine lol.... (the things we put are selves through for the love of crafting :D)

Sally B and the Reds....

The Sally B, B17 Bomber and the Red Arrows... 

These are photos my brother took yesterday at Norwich Airport. Sally B and the Red Arrows had been staying here for a local air show this weekend.... I didn't get there in time so to see Sally B taking off , she left earlier than planned... :- ( But got to see the Reds though :- )....

 I managed to get this one...

But the best seat in the house was on top of my brothers van... (health and safety was taken into account, they were told to sit still lol lol)....

Don't get to excited......

I found a little time yesterday to have a crafty moment....  My friend is off in her caravan next week so I made this little journal for her son (hes 7)...

The pages are plain printer paper so he can do what he wants with it and I just used the BIA (which I had to dust before I used it) to bind it, the caravan is hand drawn from an image I see on FB somewhere coloured with Promarkers... just something pretty simple... Hope he'll like it....

Still feeling pretty creative which is handy really cause when my little peeps saw it this morning it was "can we have one for our holiday, please mummy can we please", guess I'm going to be busy lol......

So it's now June....

Oh where as the time gone....


I have not had much of a creative time of late and daily living has taken over but here's hoping for a change... well there is a creative spark just hope it ignites and I can get back to playing with all the lovely crafty goodies I have... Hoping to find some crafty time soon to get creative and have a good ol' play....
