Playing with Paper

I'm still stuck indoors because of the snow but I've been enjoying myself and using my stash at the same time!

I came up with this LO for the UKS Weekly Challenge:









The photo was taken in 2001 and we were heading to a 25th Wedding Anniversary with a 70s theme.  I made my outfit but Maddie's jacket was a 70s original!

I also took part in the fun challenge set at Vanilla Sugar, Bubbly Funk's new challenge blog.  This month it was using coasters and I've come up with a fun money box to save up cash for stash!


















I really enjoyed doing it and I plan to try lots of other things with coasters, looking forward to next month's challenge!

Elsewhere in the house Maddie and Alfie have been having a very lazy day!




Off to make something else now.....dinner....I'm sure it won't be as much fun to make as the money box was!
