Ok so there aren't any animals in sight but neither has their been any activity on my blog for many many months now.
I have pretty much got my craft room all up together now and have started doing some crafting again - must take some pictures when everything is sorted. Have a week off work in March so will be able to get lots more done then.
I'm no longer working 50 hours extra each month, so have a lot more free time, and I've just altered when I have my half day - mainly so that I can pretty much guarantee that I am going to get my afternoon off the majority of the time.
Yesterday afternoon I actually worked on a Robo template that has been just an idea in my head for many many months, I've cut out the 1st prototype and it just needs a little tweaking; once it's completed I'll see about adding some pictures.
As well as Roboing I've also started branching out in some other crafts. I've always wanted to paint but never have time to go to classes, so I picked up in Hobby Craft a set to learn the basics of Water colouring. Hopefully the techniques I learn will also be usefull for colouring in my rubber stamps, which I have quite a few of but never use.
I've told myself though that I'm not allowed to buy any more craft items except for the basics like glue, tape etc. But I definately don't need any more papers or inkpads, and I have quite a lot of card stock too.
I really must use it. So when I have my half day I will pop and do my mid week shopping and then back home for a crafty afternoon. Think I'll also set aside time at least one afternoon at the weekend.
Maybe this year I'll actually get around to making my Xmas cards - and not 2 day before whilst watching Die Hard.
