Love the house make.
The tag is great - there are lots of crafters who make tags. I have never made one. Do you mount the completed tag on a card?

The tags are card themselves but to be honest i haven't decided what i am going to do with them yet. I just like making them!

ziggy, altered house is lovely. I like that you've left some bits to personalised by the lucky owner. Hope all went well at hospital.

emslovesmickey, the tab is so cute.

I made another 9 cards, using my easy peasy method. I can do quite a few more this way, before I get on to what I call "proper" card making. Just need to decide on a theme for that, then I can work on some design ideas. Usually I make about 30 of theses "special" cards, usually just before Christmas. I'm determined to be better organised and therefore less panicked/stressed this year.

I have to confess - got some craft bits today! I bought some tea bags as I want to do some tea dying. Also got 2 tea light holders to alter for presents. Plus I got some peat pots to alter. Oh - nearly forgot - got some hair extensions - project lined up for them too. All these buys were from the 99p or £ shop.
Made more cards.

More cards.

This Christmas card making is certainly helping my stash busting target, but I still seem to have tons of stuff left! I think that says something about my stash!

Florenceem, I'm sure the tea bags are for drinking and they will just happen to be useful for crafting too;)

Agree about the stash - can't see any dent in mine yet.
Re tea bags - we use Sainsbob cheapies.
I watched a video about tea dying - said to used brand ones so got 100 Typhee for 99p.

Spent £10.75 today buying fabric! Alas I needed it as I couldn't finish my black and white themed patchwork quilt otherwise.
It's about 16 'rounds' short if a KingSize, now and then it will be done. So near and yet so far. Every single stitch is hand stitched while watching TV etc when I visit the BF at the weekends.
