Aliexpress Haul

I had a few crafty goodies arrive from Aliexpress this morning. I get quite a lot of crafty bits and pieces from Aliexpress. They do sometimes take a long time to arrive, but the prices are good.



This is my little pile of goodies.



First up is a 100g pack of air dry clay. I always get my air dry clay from Aliexpress. It's much cheaper than rhe branded stuff you pay for here and is equally as good. I'm trying to build a collection of base colours.



I seem to have mislayed my corner rounding punch. I bought this one as it has 3 diffetent sized corners on it. I do use a corner rounder quite a lot as I think it makes cards look better.



I bought this set of edge dies specifically for my Memory Books. They are continuous dies so if the design isn't long enough for your page it is easily matched up again to contue cutting until you have the desired length.



I love this and think it is a wonderful find. I bought it specifically to decorate a box. Can't wait to get started with it.

So that's my little Aliexpress haul until next month. There is loads of really good stuff to be found so have a look and see what you can find.

Christmas Wreath Decoration.

I made this Wreath using files from a Carnation crafts Christmas usb. It was really easy to make. It comes with all of the mats and layers you need as well as all of the decoupage. There are 3 mat layers. I cut two base layers in black, a middle layer in gold and the top layer in black. I cut two base layers because I have put a ribbon loop at the top so you can hang the finished Wreath up. I simply held the ribbon in place with a piece of tape and then sandwiched it between the two black base layers. Then I added the gold layer and finally the black top layer. Next was the decoupage. I printed the decoupage onto 128gsm Navigator paper. This is my go to paper. The print quality is exellent. I get mine in bulk from amazon but if you have a Wilko nearby they sell it as well. I glued the base layer in place flat. Then I added the decoupage pieces using silicone glue. I shaped the pieces to give a better effect by just gently moulding the pieces with my fingers. The sentiment was cut from ...

Christmas Album Page 2

Today I have made page 2 of my Classic Christmas Mini Album. Page 2 is a lovely waterfal page. Again I cut the base page to 7.5x7.5 ins. The waterfall pages are 6.5 ins wide x 5ins high. Then scored at  .5 of an inch on the short side. The closure mechanism is 2 ins wide and 6ins long. I then scored at .5 of an inch on the long side. I added glue to this small flap and glued the strip centrally at the bottom of the page. Then I added the main page mat which I cut at 7.25x7.25 ins. The waterfall mats all measure 6.25x4.25ins and we're glued in place. Next I added glue to the flaps on the waterfall pages. Be carefully to line them up properly. I added a tiny topper at the top of the closure. I added a magnet to the back of the topper and the front of the top waterfall page. Remember to do this before you add your decorative paper. If you would like to see a video of how I made this page here is the link  Page 2 I have also made a short video showing how I add pages to my albums which...
