Worst Blogger in the World!

Can't believe I haven't posted anything since the 18th of August! Actually, I can, I blame moving house...and laziness! =/

But anywho, yes, I have finally moved house! It ended up being a bit of a nightmare at the old house what with one thing an another but never mind, glad to be out of there now. The new house is fantastic, it's so much nicer than the last one which just looked like a student house (which it was) Housemates are really nice too, we all keep to ourselves a little bit but none of us mind that. My bedroom is so much bigger than the shoebox I was in before and there's actually room for more than one person in the kitchen at once! I'll pop pictures on when half the rooms aren't covered in boxes of people's things.

Right, on to something crafty. I've decided that I need something to make myself make things so I'm going to start doing challenges. I've started with the Lili's Little Fairies challenge which this week is 'Embellishment Bingo'


I decided to go for a horizontal line with glitter, buttons and ribbon and this is how it ended up:


I picked one of the images from Lili of the Valley's Mini Masterpieces sheet 26, the sentiment is from LOTV's Set 28 Vintage Labels - Occasions sentiments. The chevron paper is Papermania 'Happy Days' and the dotty paper is LOTV 'Petal Fresh'. The buttons, ribbon and gems are from my stash.
I didn't intend it to be a baby boy card, nobody I know is having a baby just yet but it worked out well anyway.

I also randomly made a little bow tie for the dog yesterday! I haven't quite finished it yet, I'm waiting for my sister to give me his collar measurements but I'll post pictures when I get it on him because he will look so gorgeous! =D
