Beamish Woods

We have always liked to get out and about for a good walk with our dog Star. The pandemic put a hold on that for a while. The world is slowly going back to some kind of normal and so today we went for a walk in the woods

The woods we walked in ate Beamish Woods only a 10 minute drive ftom our house.



Looks like this tree may have suffered from a lightening strike at sometime in the past.



Star was loving all of the new sniffs.



She had great fun



I spotted this nest in a tree. I'm sure it is to big to be a crows nest. Dave thought it might be some kind of raptor nest. So long as it's not the Volocoraptor type I'm OK with that



There were lots of diffetent twisty paths to go along



I was getting a bit worried about what might be following us as this is like a scene straight put of Jurassic Park.



Bit of a splash about before we headed home.

We had a lovely walk  but it did make me realise that lockdown has done me no favours, and I am now very overweight and very unfit.

When we got home I got out my My Peak Challenge Programme and have decided that from tomorrow I am going to start off with some yoga and some calorie counting. I really do need to do something 😕

Making Videos

As you know I am busy getting content onto my YouTube Channel. I have made several videos over the last couple of weeks. I am not 100% comfortable with talking on videos. I am very aware of my very Geordie accent. I also get very nervous and feel like I am stumbling over my words, or in some places I feel there are awkward silences. I have tried making videos with no commentary in them, but they aren't right either. I am hoping I have found the solution to my problem. I have discovered this handy little app. It has enabled me to edit photos together and add text instructions to the pictures. I have been playing with it over the past couple of days, and so far I am impressed. I shall be adding videos made with this app soon. In the meantime if you would like to check out my YouTube Channel  you can find it here  Celticmoon Crafts YouTube Channel Until next time Happy Crafting

Top Tips for Perfect Score Lines

Invest in good scoring board. I have the Ultimate by Crafters Companion. I've been using it for years and it's never let me down yet. There are loads of very good score boards on the market. Do some research, compare diffetent models and pick one that meets your needs and your pocket. Pick a bone folder that meets your needs. Again there are loads on the market. I have a lot of different bone folders I have collected over the years, but my favorite is a Teflon one. It gives a good crease and doesn't mark the card. When you use your bone folder hold it firmly in your hand and use the tip by running it firmly along the fold of your card. I start in the middle of the fold and crease half of the fold and the repeat to form the crease on the second half. Make sure you hold your bone folder at a small low angle. This allows you to apply more pressure as you crease the card. Always score with the grain of the card to get a good crease. If you don't have a score board you can i...
