New Kits

Two new Christmas Kits for sale at http://www.kaboodledoodles.co.uk

Scrapbook Set

We went to Costco a few weeks ago and I got one of these it has loads of stuff in it and the box that its in is really nice and sturdy and is 12"x 12". I have opened it up but not used anything yet.
You can get in this colour or a blue one I choose this one as the blue one had a bit too much yellow on it.
This cost £25.00 and I'm really pleased with it.

Halloween Kit

I have a new Halloween Kit coming very soon there is loads of papers and stuff included and it only costs £2.49 so keep and eye out for it over on http://www.kaboodledoodles.co.uk/ .

I have included all the elements individually so that you can re size them yourself.

I have made my card from one piece of A4 with my choice of items placed on the paper using Photoshop and I only had to print it once so quite a saving on ink.

I have printed one of the circle elements to fit in a badge machine which is why the card looks a bit wonky as I put it in my scanner. I read somewhere that badges were going to be one of the in things this year!.

Kaboodle Doodles Challenge 4

Well this week over at the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge blog we really want to set you a challenge!!! With our purse strings getting tighter and consequently our crafting budget forever shrinking :( we want to see you do a little bit of recycling!!! Our challenge to you this week is to use a non-traditional crafting element on your project. Now this can be anything that you wouldnt normally use or see in a craft shop e.g tickets, carrier bag, safety pins, fabric - one to really get you thinking this week!!

I have used a platic bag and some garden twine.

ABC Challenge blog

Here is my entry for the ABC challenge

http://www.abc-challenge.blogspot.com/

Now for the challenge.... this week the theme is....
H is for Holidays
So it can be... xmas, halloween, memories of a summer holiday, skiing holiday, religious holiday.. anything that fits into a holiday theme is welcome!

So I went for a sparkly summer holiday feel.

Sooooo !!!! Excited

Just booked our tickets for Lapland UK, we got an early booking code sent via email as we missed out last year. I'm so excited already, I love Christmas and I have to keep it from Harrison until the day just in case the weather is rubbish and we cant go.
They send an invite to the children asking for there help in getting organised So I will leave it out on the morning of our trip for Harrison to see.
I know he will love it, He will be eight by the time we go and still loves Father Christmas and I feel that maybe this is the last year before he starts asking questions.
I hope I'm wrong and he goes on believing for a bit longer.
I cant wait, go and have a look, ticket sales start on the 8Th Sept and it looks really magical.

NEW KIT !!!!

Childrens papercraft club

Thank you for your comments, the children loved the things we made and I did a second one last week . Its hard work getting it all organised as they seem to whizz through things.
I'm going to do foam and rubber stamping this week as well as a project I got from the site that Lulu recommended (see comments from post below).

Childrens papercraft club

I volunteered myself to run a craft club for year 2 children (6 to 7 years olds ) at my Son's school.
My first one is tomorrow afternoon after school and including my Son I have 12 children barering in mind that there are only 18 children in his class. I have saved the large tins from work( large bake bean tins ) and I have just covered them with paper so that the children can decorate them to use as ( bits and bobs storage ). I would like the children to take something they have made home every week .
Im hoping they wont be too bored, if anyone has any ideas or already runs a group I would love to know what the children prefer to do/enjoy doing most.
Im kinda looking forward to it, I think lol !
