<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ok in case anyone was wondering I am still alive!!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have been a bad blogger these last few
months as I have had so much going on.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>On the positive side one of the things that has been keeping me from
blogging is the amount of orders I have been working on recently.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Things have just gone crazy over on my </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/scratchycatcrafts"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Facebook page</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
over the last few months which is excellent news. I still can’t believe how
busy I am and amazing it feels that people like my items enough to want to buy
them. It is only 18 months since I set the page up and at the time I never dreamt
it would prove as successful as it has done.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Don’t get me wrong it hasn’t always been easy and its hard work –
working fulltime in my day job, running scratchycat fulltime in every other
hour as well as raising a young family and make time for hubby and Little Miss
G means I never stop!. One day it will all be worth it I hope and I’m under no
illusion that I wont succeed unless I give it everything. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have recently taken on a new assistant to
deal with some admin work which takes the pressure off a little.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I never realised how time consuming it can be
sending invoices, answering e-mails, networking, wrapping parcels and posting
items etc.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now I have an assistant to do
lots of those types of things I can focus more on the crafting and producing
the products.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anyway as well as running
my Facebook page I have also opened a new online shop.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now I have had a website for a while but its
never really done what I wanted it to so I decided to start from scratch
(excuse the pun).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I got the lovely Jamie
from </span><a href="http://clickbusinesssolutions.co.uk/"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Click business Solutions</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">to build me a new website and then I have spent the last few weeks
uploading new products.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you want a
website building I would highly recommend Jamie. He offers a professional and
friendly service and nothing is too much trouble. I will definately be looking to work with him again in the future.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Anyway to celebrate the launch of my new
website I am offering the first 20 customers 15% off their order. So if you
haven’t been for a nosey go and check it out now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Make sure you register to claim the discount
and to receive future promotions.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I’d
love to know your thoughts when you’ve been to check it out…..</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today i thought I'd share a recent commission i have just finished. A customer who has purchase a few items off my </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/scratchycatcrafts"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Facebook Page</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> contacted me recently and asked if could make her a personalised wedding cushion with a VW camper van on. I loved making it as i don't get as much time to do applique projects as I'd like. On this occasion i decided to do it slightly different and found a handy tip that i will always use from now on. Instead of appliqueing the cut pieces onto the cushion face i decided to heat n bond the pieces first and fix them in place then applique over them. I'm so glad i did it made the process so much easier as the pieces didn't move around and were easier to cut out as well as they were a bit more sturdy. Anyway what do you think of the end result?......</span></div>

It was a well needed break after i have been so so busy this year. Having said that we nearly didn't get there!. 4 months ago when i booked flights i checked my passport to make sure it hadn't expired - no 5 years left. Now because i renew the passports at the same time then i didn't both to check any others BIG mistake!!!. It didn't dawn on me that Lili's is only for 5 years because she's a child!!!! So 4 days before going when i go to enter the pre flight information online i almost have a panic attack!!!. Ok keep calm i'll just ring Liverpool passport office and spend a whole day (that i don't really have to spare!) sorting out a new one. Oh no those days are long gone when i rung up the passport central number i was told they offered a same day service and a weeks service at all offices. I explained it was less than a week till we go so could i have a same day appointment please. Apparently not as as the next available appointment at liverpool was in 2 weeks time (erm why are people being booked in to a same day service when they fly in over a weeks time surely thats what the week service is for!!). To cut a long story short the only uk office with a same day appointment before we were going was Belfast!!!. So off i flew to sunny Belfast (and it really was) to get little Miss G's passport renewed. Alls well that ends well but not an experience i want to repeat!!!.dizzytinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10418811440083157414noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836109936358560180.post-69849273294445002992012-05-21T05:53:00.003-07:002012-05-21T05:53:39.791-07:00My new garden kits<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Today i thought i would share some of the things i've been making this week. First up is something i have been meaning to try for a while now. I had some plain headbands i bought last year with the intention of jazzing them up. Until now i haven't had chance to do something with them. The other night i was sorting through Little Miss G's clothes for our holiday in June and realised she didn't have many headbands that matched her summer clothes. With this in mind i grabbed my glue gun some ribbone and embellishments and ta dah...... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> This next project was a practise for an order i have. I have been asked to make a drawstring bag with a see through panel in the front in a childs initial. I thought i would practise first and came up with this in hello kitty fabric with my little girls intial on. She loves it and it was really easy to do. i used vinyl fabric for the panel and made the rest the same as a normal drawstring bag.</span></div>

Everyone seems to want them. I do love making them as i like to give each one its own individuality and i'm always trying to come up with new designs. i thought i'd dedicate this post to some of the monkeys i have made over the last few months. If you want to have a go at making your own then drop me an e-mail and i'll send you the instructions of a basic monkey. If you don't want to make one but want to give some love to one that i've made then visit my <a href="http://www.facebook.com/scratchycatcrafts">Facebook page</a> and pick a monkey to buy. They start at £8.50 for basic monkey's and you can add accessories and name tags and other bits and bobs as you go along. I am also taking part in a charity auction in aid of McMillan nurses and Iris my pink and white sock monkey at the end of this post is up for auction so pop along to the wonderful <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Supermums-Craft-Fair/282895841739131">Supermum's Craft Fair</a> Facebook Page and have a peek at all the fab items up for auction. If you wa nt to bid on Iris then click on the link <a href="http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.392643974097650.105201.282895841739131&type=3#!/photo.php?fbid=392663157429065&set=a.392643974097650.105201.282895841739131&type=3&theater">Here</a>.

Sorry for my prolonged absence but things have been so busy recently. I usually write my posts on a sunday night and just schedule them to appear on my blog during the week as i don't get a lot of spare time in the week. Over the last month i haven't even had half an hour on a sunday night to write! Anyway i'm here now and have scheduled some more posts so i won't be going AWOL again (well not for a while atleast!!). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Given its almost Mothers Day (over here in the uk don't panic yet any of my US followers!) i thought i'd share some of my latest Mothers Day projects. If you need any help or advice on how to make them just drop me an e-mail or if you don't want to make them yourself pop over to my </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/scratchycatcrafts"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Facebook Page</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> or my </span><a href="http://www.folksy.com/shops/scratchycatmemories"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Folksy Shop</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and have a browse at what i have on offer for Mums and Grandma's!.</span></div><br />

I find it easier to do schedule posts as i just wouldn't get the chance in the week to update my blog and do live posts. Some people prefer to write posts as and when they have done something or have something to say which is great if you have the time. Because my posts are all written and uploaded on a sunday i do sometimes miss spontaneity but hey ho!. Anyway if anyone does want a copy of my blog planner </span>I have uploaded it . Not sure why but the photo below doesn't show the text but if you click on the link below you can see the correct version.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhni8UkJDOjjAQ4sf_OY78v1QaMTtEIafPoJafeuI1YClBaBWxyWtHJ0nE_XY-STXzWKXU33B_YHTQ4hZcgnRK16iPtU6cgWTyfo8lmdgoYy-DFT1QCGls70vA_RmCNPzU0h2-rDYnBIak/s1600/1-3ab162cdcd.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="221" kba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhni8UkJDOjjAQ4sf_OY78v1QaMTtEIafPoJafeuI1YClBaBWxyWtHJ0nE_XY-STXzWKXU33B_YHTQ4hZcgnRK16iPtU6cgWTyfo8lmdgoYy-DFT1QCGls70vA_RmCNPzU0h2-rDYnBIak/s320/1-3ab162cdcd.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/78407127/Blog-Planner-Sheet"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Just click here</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> for a copy</span></span></div>dizzytinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10418811440083157414noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836109936358560180.post-73121606066720754152012-01-17T10:27:00.000-08:002012-01-17T10:27:12.149-08:00And the Valentine's ideas just keep on coming!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpdCvheJ68L0h2hIwvQvzd9nxbU90MPXH4Sap4Tyts6yoD3mNONS7T0S7lUuK884Zxcaz5I2zHaxbr_e9DmAdspZJQWl6S-ZEpmHIfiSQ19XmNIpSr7D9oTcM6CMp8z5PYZOsBe_Gy_I/s1600/IMG_8899.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" kba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpdCvheJ68L0h2hIwvQvzd9nxbU90MPXH4Sap4Tyts6yoD3mNONS7T0S7lUuK884Zxcaz5I2zHaxbr_e9DmAdspZJQWl6S-ZEpmHIfiSQ19XmNIpSr7D9oTcM6CMp8z5PYZOsBe_Gy_I/s320/IMG_8899.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br />

The chunky square magnets were made by painting a wooden heart red and then gluing on the tile.</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpdCvheJ68L0h2hIwvQvzd9nxbU90MPXH4Sap4Tyts6yoD3mNONS7T0S7lUuK884Zxcaz5I2zHaxbr_e9DmAdspZJQWl6S-ZEpmHIfiSQ19XmNIpSr7D9oTcM6CMp8z5PYZOsBe_Gy_I/s1600/IMG_8899.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="282" kba="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCpdCvheJ68L0h2hIwvQvzd9nxbU90MPXH4Sap4Tyts6yoD3mNONS7T0S7lUuK884Zxcaz5I2zHaxbr_e9DmAdspZJQWl6S-ZEpmHIfiSQ19XmNIpSr7D9oTcM6CMp8z5PYZOsBe_Gy_I/s320/IMG_8899.JPG" width="320" /></a></span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br />

We do but don't particularly buy gifts other than little token ones (and i make all mine of course). We then tend to go away for a night or out for a nice meal but either the week before or the week after as the prices just get silly as companies know they can charge more at Valentine's Day. This year we have got a great deal on </span><a href="http://www.groupon.co.uk/"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">www.groupon.co.uk</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> for a nice 4 star hotel with 3 course meal, overnight accommodation, a glass of champagne each , a bottle of wine and full breakfast all for £79 Bargain!. i can't wait.

Hope you all had a good weekend. Personally mine was not great as in my day job we are going through a restructure and whilst my post appears safe (I'm taking on 2 more teams and approx an extra 100 staff including site staff for no extra pay)some of my staff are at risk and there are a number of people fighting for posts. The formal process of the restructure began on Friday. Anyway lets not dwell on that and focus on something much more cheery like crafting!. </span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br />

All you will need is a wooden heart ( have a search on eBay for these or try your local craft shop or </span><a href="http://www.woodencraftshapes.co.uk/"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">www.woodencraftshapes.co.uk</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> ), some ribbon,buttons, tester pot of paint emulsion or acrylic will do and either a cricut machine and vinyl or letter stickers (or failing that a gel pen and you can do your text freehand). First of all paint your wooden heart in the choice of your colour and leave it to dry. Once it has dried cut out the following words using your cricut machine and a piece of vinyl. I loved you then i love you still i always have i always will. If you don't have a cricut machine its fine just use letter stickers (available at any stationery shop/craft shop or hand write the text on). Stick on your letters as the photo above shows and then add a hanging ribbon and glue on some buttons as embellishments. That's it valentines gift number one in the bag!</span></div>dizzytinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10418811440083157414noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836109936358560180.post-83291121779598895832012-01-05T05:21:00.000-08:002012-01-05T05:21:57.895-08:00What's on your to do list for 2012?<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Happy New Year everyone. Are you one of those people who makes New Years resolutions or not? As a rule I don’t really tend to make new year resolutions as they tend to end up more like a to do list for the first week in January!. Having said that there are certain things I would like to work towards this year. The first is expanding and growing my Scratchycat craft business. At some point this week I need to sit down and write some goals and a business plan on how I aim to do this. I have a few ideas in the pipeline but need to work them out on paper. More importantly I need to become better organised. I always thought I was a fairly organised person until things became really busy before Christmas and then I realised I really wasn’t prepared for the rush!. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now then have you all managed to get any crafting in yet?. I have managed a couple of projects so far. </span></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Ok i'm 4 days late but i have been having some well deserved rest and relaxation with my family. Things during December have been so manic this year and i never expected my crafts to be as popular as they have been. This of course is a really good thing but has meant up til Christmas Eve i have been working full time at my day job then coming home and working full time making up orders from my </span><a href="http://www.folksy.com/shops/scratchycatmemories"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Folksy Shop</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">, </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/scratchycatcrafts"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Facebook page</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and sales for friends and my unit at Botany Bay. In between that trying to fit in family life and special moments like watching little Miss G in her Nativity play(Which she was awesome in). All this has meant i haven't had chance to stop and catch a breathe let alone do the other things i love like baking, catching up on everyone Else's blogs etc etc. So i apologise if i have been absent from the world of blogging but i promise to be much more organised next year!. Anyway here's a few pics of some of my recent makes and orders.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xLSV3TDBWBc/TvxdFytReAI/AAAAAAAABAk/0LzCDrpwd1o/s1600/IMG_8736.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" rea="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xLSV3TDBWBc/TvxdFytReAI/AAAAAAAABAk/0LzCDrpwd1o/s320/IMG_8736.JPG" width="256" /></a></div><br />

I live by them so writing a Christmas list will be a walk in the park – when I get round to doing it!!.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am going to make a real effort tonight (once I have finished my orders of 3 sock monkeys, 2 door hangers, 2 wooden hearts and a dad’s shed sign!) to get it done and I will post it on here tomorrow. For now though I’ll share some of my recent makes....</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhydAPOQkXP0e_1y9laGyB1dWli3dv94uaONCSha9UORbe6L2dDLV9AFZdb204TmC91mdxWHRDIruRD2GoC4IdhDqs9h2aPwIydcuW3Io6GfVEomZRgXgwrwuUSurRNYYSAKkKyV77snOk/s1600/IMG_1151.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" dda="true" height="276" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhydAPOQkXP0e_1y9laGyB1dWli3dv94uaONCSha9UORbe6L2dDLV9AFZdb204TmC91mdxWHRDIruRD2GoC4IdhDqs9h2aPwIydcuW3Io6GfVEomZRgXgwrwuUSurRNYYSAKkKyV77snOk/s320/IMG_1151.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Bella and izzy the sock monkey's.

<div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have only made a few memory boxes previously as finding suitable boxes at the right price is usually difficult. The box i used for this was from TKMaxx and i added pink satin ribbon, the wooden castle that i painted and embellished and a little wooden butterfly. </span></div>dizzytinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10418811440083157414noreply@blogger.com6
