Hello friends
No blog post yesterday but making up for it today by announcing the winner of
Very blurred action shot of Bella!
Wrestled the winning piece of paper from her and it was relatively unscathed!
The winner is....
SUE (aka Stitch-a-Greeting Sue)
Congratulations - drop me an email with your address and I will get the dies sent out to you.
The Harry Potter film viewing is going to plan - Elliott has drawn up a schedule
that we have to adhere to otherwise we will not fit them all in before next Tuesday!
Now for something crafty - revisiting previous projects at the moment.
How about a chalk board using Nested Tea Cups to decorate it.
I often look around bargain stores, 99p, Poundland and it amazing what items you can pick
up to alter - this was a children's chalk board that I just added a few die cuts, lace and twine.
Elliott hasn't forgotten about his blog post...definitely on its way soon.
Take care friends.

Hi Christine. Love the chalkboard. I also get lots of bits and bobs from charity, 99p and pound shops to craft with. Hope you and Elliot, and your other son of course(sorry, don't know his name) enjoy watching Harry Potter together:)Take care.
Great idea to decorate a kitchen today Christine. Loved the Spellbinders shows yesterday, but frustrated that all the embossing folders were bundled together - my budget wouldn't run to that.
Hi Christine,
Well done to Sue. I love the chalk board, could do with one of these for my kitchen.

What a great idea with the chalkboard, I love it! I reckon I need to visit the bargain shops more often to see if I can find some nice items to change. You have a good eye for doing this!
Pleased to hear Elliot has made a plan..... enjoy your HP viewings!

Love the altered chalk board, they'd make super gifts (got to find some!) Well done Sue.Hope you all have a super day of film watching.Big hugs x
Hi Christine, I am out and about today and first on my shopping list are the very cheap shops, and charity shops as I learned a great deal in the craft classes on board my cruise, and now I can practice altering a mirror before tackling a larger one. Enjoy Harry and friends.

What a lovely idea Chris, One that I will be copying very soon!!!.
At Excel on Saturday I got a template for owl bunting, so I might have a go with that instead of cups. Looking forward to Elliot's blog. Take care Janice xx
Your chalkboard looks fabulous! I bought these dies but haven't used them yet - now I'm going to have to try using them as bunting!
Hi Christine,
Sounds like Elliott has you very organised!!
Chalk board is a cool idea, maybe for the kitchen a 'don't forget' board which i seem to be needing more often these days!
Let me know what the Harry Potter experience was like as my teenage girls have expressed an interest in going! i will wait for Elliott's review!
Crafty hugs

Congrats to Sue for winning the dies.
Elliott, you are following in your Mother's footsteps,keeping busy and being organised. Hope all works out and you enjoy yourself at HP Studio.
Take care Carolyn x
Hello Christine, glad HP plans are going well. Hope you have a good time.
Well done Sue for winning the dies. Have fun using them.
I just love the chalk board idea but haven't got this die set. I don't think there is another option that I could use this time so it looks like another set for the 'must buy one day' list
Take care

Hi Christine, Congratulations to Sue on winning the beautiful dies.
Glad to hear that Elliott has got a schedule to stick to with HP viewing, I believe that lists and schedules are an essential, a definite necessity for me (but maybe that's an 'age' thing with me ha ha).
Lots of love from Patricia cc
oohhhh, just love this.... another creation on my to do list :)
