Catherine's Crafting Space

Hi Here's my latest make that I made at the make 'n' take. This is my first attempt at wirework so the wire is not as neat as it could be but I'm learning. I know how to improve this for next time.

I was bored last night and decided to do some crafting. I made my first ever card with an elegant lady. I love the colours of the background. I loved making the pyramage card as it looks great but is really simple when you can line up the parts. I finished this and got thinking that I like so many animal beads and they are normally glass but I thought I wonder if you can make them out of fimo. So I found some pictures as I need to see picture before I can create anything. I made the teddy bear first and then the cat. These are not cooked yet as I am going to make some more fimo before I put them in the oven so I am not wasting electricity

These are my latest creations. I made them on Thursday at Bunyip Beads at the make n take session they run every month. It's was great as when I need help there is someone there that can show me. I made the pink one first and then the green one.

These are the latest ATC's I've made. The teddy bears were for a craft beautiful swap, and the bunny is for the ATC draw also on craft beautiful. I kept the tessy bear with a balloon, as I like to keep one of every set I complete.

This is a picure of my first ATC's. I did the swap on the crafts beautiful forum and have kept one for myself. I know that they are not the best, so if you have any comments on how I can improve feel free. This is my first dealing with paper craft that has been given to someone else. I got the paper and the toppers from Allissa Designs who gave these for free for Easter. Her link is on the side bar.

This is the latest make of today. I spent all evening making it but love the outcome. I know that if I was to do this one again I would have to work on finishing it off. I may need an extra 5 pairs of hands to help hold on to different bits. I love the colours of this necklace and the fact that it's different to all other necklaces I own and have seen in the shops.

This is my latest necklace that I've made it didn't take long to complete and I really like it. I've enter this in the jewellery challenge. I've had all these beads for ages now and didn't know what to do with the green beads. This is my first lariat that I've made and I want to make more in the future. I haven't been brave enough to wear it yet as it's completely different to anything I've ever bought - not that I've ever seen one on the high street.
