This years first TTD is on this Saturday. The show and tell criteria is to use the papers from one of our A5 pads to make a workshop (which would normally run for 2-3 hours). I've made this mini album to enter. I was going to leave it plain, but decided to add some interactive pages.

    It took at least 10 hours to do, but half of that was working out measurements, and making templates to ensure it all worked properly. Even so, I think this one would have to be a double workshop. But I'm really pleased with how it turned out, even though I spent another couple of hours remaking the covers. The original was more of a folio - soft covers and no spine. But I decided to make it an album, so remade the spine and covers using chipboard.

      

Here are my treats for the girls who will be there. A caramello Koala in the bottom box, and a small sweet in the top box.

    Well, here I am, back for another creative year. Firstly, the card I made for my sister's birthday - an unusual spiral design. 

  

  

Then a little Halloween treat for some friends. 

  Next it was on to Christmas things. Tea and sugar folders for the ladies in my weekly social group. Fifty of them.

     

   Mint mini bags for the hospital staff who have been taking such good care of me over the past few months. Sixty of these.

One hundred and fifty of these little blighters for the town treats.

   

   Then the kids\grandkids boxes. Cash in the top, a little chocolate in the bottom section.

 

Lastly, the 3D Christmas cards for my sister and brother.

   I'm looking forward to another year of crafdting, and hopefully getting my craft room sorted and refurbished asap.
