Poundland Haul.

    I do quite a bit of craft shopping in Poundland. You can get some exellent bargains. They get a lot of end of line products from big companies. Today I had yo go into Newcastle to go to the bank  so of course I had to pay Poundland a visit.

This is my haul for today. I am trying to reorganise my craftroom as I just don't seem to have room to put everything. I got a couple of small baskets and some hooks to hang them on the wall.
Those odd grey things are collapsable funnels. They were 2 for £1 and they will be very usefull in my craftroom.
I recently purchased some spray bottles from Aliexpress which were very reasonably priced. Today i bought a travel cosmetic set for £1. It has 2 spray bottles in it which are only small but big enough for alcohol ink sprays, 2 other bottles which I plan to use for glue, and several little pots that I'm sure I can find a use for. I also got a cosmetic stand which is perfect to put them in.

This was my favorite purchase. Metallic acrylic paint. Good sized tubes and I cant wait to see what they are like. They only had 4 colours so I will have to keep checking to see if they get any different ones. All in all I am drlighted with my little haul today.

Celticmoon Crafts

    I started Celticmoon Crafts quite a few years ago now. As a passionate crafter I wanted to share my ideas with others, so I started to design my own craft sheets.         This is one of my favorite design sheets. I love anything Oriental.       I produced 20 card making CDroms, covering a range of subjects. This was one of my first CDroms. I love digital crafting. Its much more economical than buying ready printed sheets. If you run put just print another sheets. Of course I have been known to run put of ink before which isn't always good.       I made this card using one of my own designs. Anubis is my favorite Egyptian God. He gets a lot of undeserved bad publicity in my opinion.     I've done a lot of craft fairs in the past.  Sometimes they are very very good and sometimes very very bad. I have been to craft fairs where I have sold loads, and I have been to ...

Health Scare

I have been notably absent over the past couple of weeks. The reason is I have had a health Scare. I returned from the MPC Gala in Edinburgh at the begining of May and developed a niggly pain in my right foot. I thought I had overdone it a bit at the Gala so didn't take much notice. However the pain got worse and eventually I had to go and see my Doctor. She thought I may have  a stress fracture and sent me for an X Ray to check. My X Ray showed a lesion on my toe joint that could not be identified. I was immediately referred to an Orthopaedic Oncologist. Then followed the worst two weeks of my life. As a nurse all of the worst case scenario's went through my head. Sometimes a little bit of k owledge is a bad thing. If I slept for 3 hours a night I was lucky. It was just hell. On Friday I finally went for my appointment. I am hugely relieved to say the specialist is certain the lesion is benign. I have to go for an MRI scan but he has no concerns. I do have a fracture which is ...

Ebay Finds

Like many other crafters i like a bargain. I don't always have a huge amount of money to buy supplies  so it id always good when I can find a bargain. I am a huge fan of digital crafting as I find it much more economical than buying ready printed products. I have a huge collection of craft cdroms and usbs. I have started checking out ebay for digital bargains and have found quite a few recently. I got this for £5 and it was worth every penny. The papers on it are beautiful. I am presently making a V8ntage Christmas Memory Book using this cdrom. I am a great fan of Joanna Sheen. This triple cdrom was also £5. I have lots of plans for this one. I am a great fan of anything Oriental. Joanna Sheen again. It suddenly struck me that I dont have anything with a baby theme. What would I do if someone asked me for a baby card, or a baby book. So of course I took to ebay again. Now if someone asks me gor something for a new arrival I am ready. Crafters Companion brought out this cdrom a few ...
