Q & L Challenge - Knowledge

Our two words for this fortnight from The Craft Barn's Quotes & Lyrics Challenge are Knowledge and/or Hurt.  I chose Knowledge to use for my altered beer mat, and decided to use a lovely Crafty Individuals image of an owl - seeing as they are wise! - for my image this time.   The quote I chose is by George Bernard Shaw.

I am in the process of making a book to mount these beer mats in by recycling cereal packets to make the pages and I will use book rings when I am done.

I am also entering this in the Crafty Individuals 'Nature's Beauty' challenge.

Gruffies & Guests - Ch #4 - Anything Goes with the option of Lace


I have just made the halfway reminder post on Gruffies & Guests for our current challenge, which is Anything Goes with the option of Lace.  For my DT work I have made a card using an image from a HM CD which I have to say is a lot easier than colouring in for me these days!  My eyes aren't what they used to be!  My lace is from a reel of sticky lace and I coloured the flowers with Promarkers.


There is a great prize of a £10 voucher from Bearly Mine Designs for the lucky winner, so pop on over to the blog and take part!

Q & L Challenge - Change

Our two words on The Craft Barn's Quotes & Lyrics Challenge this time are Change and/or Truth.  I decided to go for Change to make my altered beer mat, again using some old K & Co. bp I've had for ages and an old favourite stamp.  The quote I chose is by Marcus Aurelius.
