Inchie and Speed Challenge

Hi All from a lovely frosty and sunny Yorkshire. Thank you for calling in and for leaving comments which I love to read.

At Every Inchie Monday this week we are doing Night inchies

Mine is a simple black, felt inchie with peel off stars and some white beads as planets. Lovely to see more people have joined in this year and have wonderful ideas.

Speed Craft Challenge have animals for us to think about this time and still plenty of time to join in so I hope you have a go. It is fun to see what you can make in 15 minutes or how far you get with a project in that time.

For a change I made a scrapbook page for my 8x8 scrapbook. It has photographs of my daughter's cats and a few other things I gathered together before I took the time at the start. What ever my daughter is doing the cats are there to 'help'. I am sure she is pleased to go to her 'real work' without them being there.

Have a wonderful and peaceful day

Love Chrissie 

Speed Craft Challenge

Hello everyone. I am bit late today as we went shopping early thinking it would be busy but it was just the usual Saturday shoppers here I think. I hope your day is going well and thank you for your visit to Jumbled Crafts.

At The Speed Challenge this week the theme is anything goes with the option to use a stencil if you like.

Just over an hour ago I thought I would come up to my craft room and do the speed challenge while Vic was watching a film. I just got everything ready to start and he came upstairs to ask if we had any Christmas paper, where was the sellotape and did I have anything to make some labels? He said he had some bits and bobs to wrap up for under the tree. 

 Then I took a pic with the time and the stuff I thought I might need

Ready to go

 Cover A small piece of card with double sided tape and stick stuff onto it. Next cover the whole lot with aluminium tape. Press the tape into the shapes so their pattern shows through. Mount this onto another piece of card

I stenciled the white card with a Tando music stencil, a Big Juicy Ink Pad and a brayer. Well I am sure I could have finished it but the phone wrang with my daughter on speaker wanting to talk to Vic and me so I took a photograph and left it until later to finish

This is it finished with the shapes better defined and a smear of black ink and a gold pen here and there.

Have a lovely rest of the day

Love Chrissie x

Inchie and Speed Challenges

Hello Everyone who calls in today. It is always great to read your comments and thanking for taking the time to leave them. White over with frost here and very cold brr.
 I see that Google have added a verification number to Blogs and I am not sure if it can be bypassed. I did try to get rid of it on my settings but no luck so far.

This week the theme at Every Inchie Monday is Yo Yo. I used to love playing with a Yo Yo and I still do because I got one in a Christmas Cracker last year and it had be hidden before I would stop playing with it.

I found an image that was for children to colour in--well I am still young at heart so that's ok :)

The Challenge at Speed Craft this time is Butterfly and you have 15 minutes to make something--you are allowed to gather things together before the time starts.

The card I made

I gathered some stuff together.  A lot of it was from a card I made a long time ago and never posted because I didn't like it. This time I hadn't a plan at all when I began and it seems to work better for me that way.

Ten minutes later I had made this card which just need an inner now.

Thought you might like to see a few pics we took with Vic's phone yesterday.

It was lovely and sunny but freezing cold. The harbour was very quiet for a change so we went for a walk along where the fishermen have their storage places.

Have a lovely day today

Speedy and Digital Collage

Hello to everyone who calls in at Jumbled Crafts today and thank you for visiting. It looks like a craft day today here as it is dark, windy and wet so far.

At Speed Craft Challenge this time the theme is anything goes and you have 15 minutes to make something but you can prepare the things you are going to use beforehand. Still plenty of time to enter so do have a go.

All ready to start

Time to get going

Finished card--I added some stars as the white bits looked a bit bare

Time finished.

At Three Muses this week the theme is White Space. Not always easy for people like me who like to fill every bit of a digital collage.

Used effects to create the silver head and a flower of my own design. The bird was from Outlaw by Design a long time ago.

Have a lovely day everyone
