Firstly, my apologies for not keeping up to date with my blogging over the last few weeks. I could use many excuses, but I wont, I've just been a bit crap again at keeping on top of all elements of my life and work! For a start I've got this going on at home, although I have to say I am impressed with the work of Wither and Greenhill , Stranraer! Just can't wait to see what it is like finished. I'm taking the photos so that I can scrapbook the transformation.......
Hoping these projects will make it up to you all.
Cards
I've made a couple of cards recently for work colleagues. Below are I believe the best of them, again patterns from SVG Cuts.
I always struggle to come up with ideas for making cards for boys or men. however this one is most definitely a fit for most young men I know! Beer! As you can see I even made the envelope.
The second is for a Chocolate Addict, still I also wanted it to be feminine and not just a lump of chocolate.......so I adapted the file and inserted a sentiment from the silhouette store.
3D Models
Okay so as you will have gathered by now, I have a bit of a love for making 3 dimensional paper models and shapes, usually patterns and ideas come from SVG cuts and Silhouette store, how I decide when to make them though are a bit hit and miss, sometimes influenced by events in my life, sometimes just because I am lacking in inspo! One thing is for sure though, I never have problem being inspired to either buy or make my favourite things: shoes or handbags.
Shoes: so here's some shoes, okay they are not a pair, but how nice would they be anyway sitting on your vanity table...
Lastly today I am going to show you something else I made when thinking about what to make for our beloved males in our families. How many ours of their misspent youths did yours loose playing? Again as this is an SVG cuts file it is multi-functional, not just a model, but also a box.
POOL:
Anyway, that's it for this week. End of year Uni assignment due on Thursday, so I will be back with some designs soon as I can.
Have a great week (or couple of weeks , just in case I lapse again ;-) )
Don't work too hard
