What’s been happening in my life….
Well it’s been all go here in the past few weeks.
Firstly I’m loving swap-bot at the moment. I am being more creative now than I ever have been in my entire life, my mantlepiece is full of cards from people who have sent me stuff and every day I am eager to get up, check my email and greet the postie! With all this mixed media work I’ve been doing I can’t help but attack everything with a pair of scissors. The hubby thinks there is a mail vandal about!
We also have a new addition to the Sylvester household. Her name is Brie. Check out her page on Catster.
I have created a blog for Kucachoo Crafts, my Etsy store. Recent posts include a collection of links about making books for journaling and a photo tutorial on making an elastic topped storage bag.
I’ve also been updating the soggy-cornflakes parenting blog with some really cool things to do with kids!
Be a groupie!
Well this week I have set up a couple of yahoo groups that I think will fill in a few gaps!
The first is a group for journaling. It’s for those who journal, want to journal or make their own journal. Journaling these days is a little more than glorified diary entries. It can be wonderfully creative using pictures, colours and embellishments to make the journal ’speak’ to you. you can have a journal on almost anything, nature, recipes, thoughts, inspiration, family history and so on.
The second group is based on a different kind of pen palling. If you have ever wanted to write to someone as a film star, secret agent or alien. Alternative pen pals is for you. It also covers alternative media pen palling where you use different things to write your letters on. I once read about a lady who received a letter on the insole of a shoe!
If you think that these groups may be of interest to you come on over and join in the fun!
