Project: Lovely Letters

I can't believe we only have one more task to go I'm sure I will miss it when its over but I'm sure I'll move on to something else. This time I've gone for a cat theme....

I answered my 10 questions from task 2 using my rubber stamps and hello kitty paper and also I listed my 10 favourite things through a collage as I wanted to do things a little differently...

My favourites in no order with still a little bit of a cat theme to it... 1.Photography 2.Music 3. Desserts/Sweets/Candy 4.Crafts 5.Seaside/nautical theme 6. Books 7. Fruits/Vegetables 8. Letters and Package 9. Stationery 10. Leaves Of course there are so many other things that I like so but it said only 10!

I included in my envelope some envelopes from my last letter set and the one I used this time. My friend told me that in Portugal on the 11th November its a national holiday for chestnuts which is quite fascinating. In the UK its not a national holiday but its Remembrance day where people wear a poppy to remember the soldiers that have fought the war since WW1 and we also have a minute silence. As I put some money in the charity pot at the supermarket I was forced to take a poppy which was handy as I posted it to my friend. I also posted some postcards/leaflet on the industrial side of Bradford which I'm sure house many cats!

I used my Halloween Cat set to decorate the envelope and it was a perfect time with Halloween being around the corner at that time. I used my stripy tape around the edge which made it look even better and brighter.  

 

Today I received my envelope from my partner....

Inside were the answers to my 10 questions, a favourite list and some goodies....

1. A cute birdie ATC which I love 2. Buttons: I haven't crafted with that much this year but I am a huge button fan especially the plain ones and lastly lots of mixed items to craft with which are wonderfully colourful and fun. I can't wait to use them at some point :).

 

Have you received any great packages lately?

Project: 30 Day Journal Challenge

I wanted to post this yesterday but decided I wanted to read instead so I'm posting it today. Here are the next couple of pages in my journal.

Day 9:Choose another person who is very significant in your life right now. It can definitely be the same person that we wrote about on day 3. This prompt is going to be all about those wonderful adjectives, and typography. Describe your special person with as many words as you can fit. For each word, try to use a different font or writing style. This is a great way to practice fun typography

I decided to decribe my sister

Day 10:This prompt is all about collections. What do you collect? If anything. Do you collect buttons, clothes, shoes, friends, parking tickets, whatever!! Illustrate your collections. This will be fun to look back on someday and see how your collections have grown or have moved on.

Hobbies of my past, I really would love to go back into stamp collecting again as I receive some amazing ones but I'm just too lazy to take on another hobby.

Day 11:Hello friends. Today is another one of my favorite pages. And speaking of favorites, this is a page all about your faves!! We are going to list your favorites in each of these four categories: * TV shows * Music * Food * Splurges

Day 12: Journal 12 is all about trends. Whether you consider yourself "trendy" or not, I bet there are a few trends that you find yourself gravitating to. If not, you can create a page of trends that you think are lame too, it's up to you.

I seem to be following in the trends of electrical equipment. I never thought I would be something change I guess.

Day 13:Silly insecurities....we all have them unfortunately. If you don't, you are my hero :) Today I want you to document your insecurities, face them, write them down, reflect on them, and get them out of your system. Somewhere on your page I want you to write "BUT..." This will lead in to tomorrow's prompt :) This is definitely not a fun prompt but it's kind of necessary in order to move past them.

Day 14:Ok, now that we have all of the yucky insecurities out of our system, I want us to completely focus ONLY on the things that make you the amazing person that you are. What are the qualities that you possess that make you so wonderful? Don't be shy and don't be modest either on this one.

Day 15: Today I would like you to brainstorm some goals for the upcoming month. A short list of goals that will be attainable to accomplish in one month
