Week 127 ~ Inchies


Guest Designer

Get to know Lisette.....


Hi, I'm Lisette and I live in Sheffield, England. I am both excited and honoured to have been lucky enough to win a guest designer spot at one of the very first blog challenges I ever discovered with one of the friendliest teams and followers in blogland.  I'm new to blogging but have been crafting all my life. My ambition is to work full-time in the crafting world in some way. In my day job I work for a charity that trains people to set up healthy cooking clubs and to get people cooking good food from scratch. I was previously a primary school teacher and also had a long spell working for the BBC . I've been married for thirty years and have two grown-up (well sometimes!) sons. All three men in my house are very good at putting up with my crafting mess!

Get to know Michelle....


Hello everyone, my name is Michelle and I am french Canadian. I am so happy to be here as a guest designer on this great blog that is CCCB. I love paper crafting, scrapbooking, cards, stamping and a little bit of mixed media, I love to make my own paper flowers and ornaments too. I don’t think I have any particular style but I use a lot of ink in my projects. I really enjoy my handmade life. I love everything Vintage. Old books, frames, boxes, and when it is not old enough I age/distress it myself.
Have a creative week!

Michelle

City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 123 ~ Wishi Washi 2

Hi everyone
It's Ros back with you this week for a brand new challenge ...
Are you just loving the washi tape craze? I am amazed at the beautiful creations I am seeing in blogland using these tapes ... and they are so easy to make as well
So this week I am challenging you to use Washi or Tissue tape on your projects ... it can be store bought or handmade ... but there is a catch ...
Just to make it more interesting you are only allowed to use 2 other items on your projects!
These can be DP, stamp, flower, or any embellishment you choose
Reckon you can handle that? I hope so because we are looking forward to seeing your creations ...
Have fun!

~ Ros

Hi All!  It is Cheryl back as your hostess this week and I have chosen the theme of "It's a Fabrication"...*and that's the truth*...your challenge is to use fabric on your project this week.  I don't know about you, but I get almost giddy when I walk into a fabric store.  I just LOVE all the pattern and color and texture.  Using fabric on a project can add all those things to it and I'm super excited to see what you all create with it this week.

Get to know Catherine......


I am french but I have been living in the UK for more than twelve years now. I started paper crafting ten years ago. I used to do a lot of cross-stitching but I had to stop because of problems with my hands. I have never looked back since ! I am totally addicted... I used to make memory albums but since I started my blog I have been mainly making cards. I love kraft cardstock, dies, ribbons... and cute images for me to colour ! Blogland is a wonderful place with great people and a lot of inspiration
