Well big thankyou to all who left kind wishes re my eye problem.It is much better not as painful but have been taking it easy past week.Optic Neuroitis they treating me for.
Anyway last monday well high winds here in Norfolk ,power cuts werent the word and after about the fourth bingo computer went well mental...Glad to say at weekend was fixed and luckily not lost anything as had back up...phew.Well it was good in a way i had not computer except missed like crazy.whatever did we do without them i ask?IT gave my eye time to rest .Very little crafting got done as mojo and myself with the pain didnt feel like doing much.
So last week took leaf ou of Hels book and cut some T/holtz die cuts up as stock running low .Also cut some for my dear friend Cheryl...Reminds me must post off!.Then i did some making well made /decorated some pins whihc you can see below using beads charms ect.So easy to do and i always stick with clear accents as sticks well and yes clear.What ya think?
Now this is how i left my desk yesterday and looks like this morning.I think first task will be to give a good clean to my craft mat!rather inky ,painty ,tad gluey.
Yes the good old Paperartsy fresco paint has come out again i just love this stuff especially this one colour "Vintage Lace".As i am altering acouple of jewellery boxes ,also a small note book whihc i have painted and then added deco art weatherwood to as you can see better in below piccy it's come out lovely im pleased with it .Now today if time will try and finish said book and boxes and alter them.not sure what yet but some sort inky mess no doubt.
Weathered Wood look small note book.
Also didn't get chance to upload these last week my finished ATC' folders and ATC's this is for another swap im in at the beginning of October.I have used various Sir T's stamps,papers from crowded attic pad .Various distress inks.The Atc's below are a couple from the inside of the holder.

Good to read the eye is better, especially after a bit of rest. However, I think you have been pretty busy, even while resting that eye. I really love those pins. Kinda wish I knew what you used as your base.
Great ATC's I love the eclectic mix you have going on there.

I love those decorated pins - they made such lovely adornments to altered book pages and book covers,
Dx
Glad your eye is on the mend. I'm loving those pins how did you do them? Is it a normal straight long pin or one that already has a bead on the end? You need to do a tutorial, pretty please xx
hi hun glad your eye is better oh love those pins,hun really gorgeous,must get some stuff to make some myself,love the look of the,project you are making hun cant wait to see the finished,result take care my dear friend hugs cherylxxxxxxxx
Great work you have here today, love those pins, and the crackle is fab - I love that Vintage Lace colour too.... have a good week.
Well, even though you were proper poorly, you still managed to achieve more than I do in a week *grin*. Love those little pins - I'd just have some of them in my pin cushion to love and drool over every day!! x
Happy WOYWW, gorgeous boxes!

Hi Honey - glad to hear you are resting that eye but I am not sure my definition of resting and yours match. Resting means no die cutting, no beading (although have to admit those pins look fabulous)and no painting but then who can resist Fresco stuff (isn't that crackle amazing). Oh and no atc's either. You have been busy but get resting that eye. Hugs Neet #7
Thanks for sharing your space this week, I always enjoy visiting and hope you have a fabulous rest of the week. Great pins by the way
Love your stick pins. Thanks for the tip for the gluing. Hugs Mrs A.
The pins are great and I am also a fan of those fresco paints - I just love that magic when it all starts to crack!
Hugs,

Love the pins and your crackling is beautiful ...mine never really works... must try the stuff you use. Not sure how you manage to do so much with poorly eyes ...I struggle with bad lighting and mine are just old eyes lol.xx
Beautiful pins! I also love those ATCs!

Love those pins, very effective. Yet another 'must do' crafty bit for my ever-growing list
hi Jude - so glad your eye is improving. I love those pins and your ATCs are fab - esp the sewing one - lol. x Jo
I enjoyed getting a peek at your work. Nicely done. I had to go look up Crimbo though - had not heard that yet. And it is still too early . . . take it from a procrastinator.
Love your banner fa la la la la...la la la la! (wink) Your pins are wonderful! I really like them and I'll add that to the list of things I want to try! Thanks for the inspiration. Hope we get to see your jewellery boxes when they're done! Go on.....take a leap! Start that Christmas creativity, you'll be surprised how it gets you thinking about the Holiday Season and gives you a good jump on your cards.
Fun stuff...love those little pins! Pop Art Minis

You have lots of lovely things to show - great idea decorating the pins, they look fab! Glad your eye is getting better too.
Thanks for your visit to my desk earlier too xx
Looks like you have been very busy creating. Glad to hear the eye is better.
Happy WOYWW
Oh fab pins - so pretty. And the ATCs! LOVE the child on - so striking. And glad, too, to hear you are on the mend!

Hi, Jude! Love the pins, and the crackle effect is great. I've been doing some of that lately, with emulsion paints, and some crackle glaze I bought years ago for a decorating project. You can use PVA glue too - really cheap to do, and looks great! Sorry to hear you've had optic neuritis but glad it's improving. As a fellow M.E. sufferer, I'm off to explore your new blog.
glad your on the mend, some great makes, especially the pins.
thanks for sharing

Glad you're feeling better. You've been so busy...and say what? Christmas. Nooooo.....
What beautiful pins! I never know what's best to adhere the beads to the pin - but now I know, so thank you!
Hope you've had a wonderful WOYWW!

Great banner Jude and interesting post. Glad to hear your eyesight is improving although it sounds incredibly painful ... anything with neuritis sounds very painful Love your crackled wood piece and the gorgeous pins ... it's a wee while since I made some so you've reminded me to get the makings out and do a few for my stash. Your ATCs are great too.
I’ve a giveaway over on my blog, you might like to take a look at:- http://silverscrappers.blogspot.com/2011/09/my-memories-suite-digital-software.html
