A few hours spent in the craftavan

I managed to get into the craftavan a couple of times and get some crafting done - this week's inchie for the Every Inchie Monday challenge, the tag for the Tag Tuesday challenge and a couple of other bits.

The inchie theme for this week is CEILING. Not an easy one I thought. But when I think of beautiful ceiling, I think of the wonderful old coffered ceilings in those grand old British buildings. And that is what I went with, a coffered ceiling. 

I used a couple of different brown inks for the background and brown embroidery thread to create the coffered effect -

Next up, this week's tag with the theme of Casino Amusements and Bingo.
Luckily I had some bingo related images in my little stash , but all the bits and pieces I would have loved to use are in my craftroom in the UK!

I also made another tag, more in keeping with what I usually make, and the lady I used here is somewhat, errrmm, slighter of figure -

You remember I found a handful of bits and bobs for mixed media stuff at a vide grenier recently? I showed them on the vintageland blog here. I so wanted to make something with one or two things. And I finally did, yay. I made a necklace! -

Now my bed is calling me, I am nicely tired out from haggling my way through the Thursday evening vide grenier.
