Mini Bag template.

Inside the bag I have mounted 2 Bind it all bound books with 8 pages for photo's these measure 6.25 in x 4.5 in.

Here is where you can find the instuction video from Denise on how to put it together. This is not my Idea but I adapted it for me to beable to use here is the ORIGINAL.

As I dont have a cricut, I assembled my pieces together onto a piece of 12 x 12 paper then carefully trimmed with a craft knife then flipped over to do the other side.

Today's Project.

I wasn't much in the mood for cards this morning, so found this jar to alter.

My original aim wa to complete a DT make ready for the weekend (the flower's) but needed something to display them in.

Today's Makes!

I had a rather eventful start to the day......I got up at 5:45am to get ready for work, with awful ear ache & feeling a bit dodgy on my feet, well I stumbled and fell. I've not been feeling well for the past couple of day's, so now I know why. I have an Ear Infection. Ive got some tablets to stop me feeling dizzy and to be honest they have worked wonders so all set for work tomorrow. You're probably thinking I'm mad but I love my job and hate to miss time from work although to be honest it was quite nice to have a day off with James and a extra bit of time in the Craftroom

Here are my makes for this afternoon.

Sketch #157 from CPS. Die Cut Dreams "No Flowers", Moving Along With The Times " New Home, Not Square" and Stampavie & More "Orange". Creative Inspirations asked for Charms and Crazy4Chalenges wanted Paper Piercing.
