Hi, My name's Heather, I'm no longer a newbie and I'm a paper/glue/button/ribbon-aholic.
I love all kinds of papercrafts, especially cardmaking, scrapping & creating minibooks. I also enjoy various jewellery-making techniques.
I love cooking and baking, and especially like creating handbaked gifts for friends & family.
I don't think i have a particular "style"- i tend to try a bit of everything and love creating pieces tailored to the person who is going to receive it.
I am currently suffering from an extreme fabric flower fetish (who doesn't?!!)
When I'm not crafting i enjoy spending time with my special people, movies, reading, history, music and pretty shoes :-D
I enjoy meeting people, and swapping ideas and inspiration.
I never know what to put on these things.....I imagine once i get a few projects up and start chatting to more people, I'll update it!
<3
I've noticed some of you have posted a long list of likes/dislikes/would like/can dos, and i'll get round to doing something similar at some point, but in the mean time....
Colours: green & blue & everything in between, browns & earthy tones, purple, red, black, black n white, black n white n a contrast....i'm a bit of a Rainbow Brite!
Patterns: anything goes! but especially like polka dots, stripes & tartany checks.
Style-wise I'm a real hodgepodge! Vintage, gothic, anime, cute, kawaii...
Music: mostly rock, indie, cheesy dance
Literature/TV/Movies: tend to prefer thrillers/horror
Love baking(anything cupcake themed),
shoes(i'm an irregular choice/iron fist girl) so anything funky shoe related,
red wine,
black coffee,
corsets,
vampires,
chocolate
Hello Kitty,
zombies,
heavy eye makeup,
Alice in wonderland,
Nightmare before Christmas,
Oz,
Muppets - esp. Elmo,
sushi,
spicy food,
cartoons,
Cherries & strawberries - to eat, to wear, to cut & stick & sew.....
RIBBONS N BIBBINS N BOWS & BUTTONS....
I HATE: Celebrity culture- i have NO interest in who is dating who or people who are "famous" or who is wearing what
Soaps (the Corrie-enders type! I <3 the yummy smelling kind)
ULTIMATELY, I LOVE ANYTHING HANDCRAFTED!!
