CD Holder

Sorry I've not been around for a couple of day but I've been a little bit busy, although I have made another CD holder...to hold the discs of my new grandchild that is due in november
This may even turn into a Birthday book as my small 4x4 Cards will fit inside. It has so many different uses. I already have a few in use for discs so to use it for something different would be great..
The inside pages are just made from an A4 piece of card stock laid horizontally then
scored at the depth of your choice (mine about a third of the way down then is folded turned to portrait and folded in half.
What ever your dimensions add a couple of mm all way around and this will be your cover size. I used mount board for my cover as it is thicker than cardboard.
I'm sorry about measurement as I never measure anything but do it by eye. I'm lucky that my hubby still works at the printers where I was his boss and he gets me stuff like mount board cut if and when I need it, again with out measurements ( Jimmy bless him is a god send and has just become a dad for the first time) I just sent a piece of the card folded and said I need it cut to that size with a couple of mm extra. I ended up last time with a box full of this same size mount board so just do different books & albums. Well I think this is enough gobbldy gook from me today. Just have fun and play all day...!

Christmas

Well i've not done much today, although I did have to call into the craft shop.... Hey my friend that works there has just returned from holiday so it was a must that I call in and say Hello...! That is my story and i'm sticking to it.. My purse was a little lighter though when I came out.! Lol..
The christmas card is made using an image that a Paper Craft Planet friend sent me last week. The second card was made using an old stamp that was stored away and not been used for quite a while, At his feet I have used flower soft...!
Tomorrow I may have to stamp some images of other stamps that time has forgotten....!

I will be back tomorrow if I've had chance to play...!

House Mouse

I've had a bit of a strange day.. I'm self employed as a domestic cleaner and Home Help and my first 2 clients had not left me any money...! Then I went on to meet a new client that wanted some ironing doing, I tend to go along and say hello first then make a date to return and do the job either myself or one of my fab staff. I ended up with a cup of tea as soon as I walked in then shown up to where the ironing was all set out.. after the initial horror elapsed I just got on with it.. An hour or so later it was all done, my hubby and son will never believe me when I tell them I have done some ironing today... My son normally does it although he has left home now ;o(
Any how let me tell you what I have been playing at today....!
Then I came home and had a House Mouse thing going on today...
I've used a mixture of papers today sent to me in various different RAKs send from the wonderful friends I have made on Paper Craft Planet.. One day I will learn how to put a link on so that you can go straight to my PCP page....!
I have also used my copics again as i'm trying to get better with them but, that could take me a very long time...Lol..!

I managed to finish my Ribbon box...
Will I ever get my ribbon out of the great big knot it is in...?

So what did I do to my box after yesterdays post...
I added a handle, some flowers, leaves and some H&S Images..
The sides were left without flowers as They will only get tatty when they are stacked in the corner..
This one will house my 8x8 card and yes I have started another one but not sure what to keep in it.. Maybe my mass of ribbons, although I would need a few more boxes for that idea. My 8x8 papers need a home so I may do that. What would you use one for????
My friend who gave me them works in a craft shop and can get me more if I want any...I said yes please before she could catch her breath..
I also made some other flowers yesterday....

So what have I managed to do today, I've been to my only job on a wednesday as it keeps the rest of my day to do as I please :o)...
My friend yesterday gave me 3 boxes nice big boxes, so I have played for a while and this is how far I have come today, but I hope to finish off tomorrow so please call back and see what happened next..

Sorry I've not been around as we have been away for a long very lazy weekend..
I did't even take anything crafty with me ;o(
Please Come back tomorrow afternoon and see what I have been up to..
