Ivy Covered Log Studio Button - walkthrough

Hi everyone! It has been a little while since I updated this blog. Of course I am updating the One Button a Week blog every week (do pop over and have a look!), so I am not neglecting things really, I just haven't got that much to say. I'm sure you don't want to read me just writing for the sake of it!

I decided to try a slightly different take on things for this video. Goodness, that wasn't a good idea! Usually, I know what I am filming, do it in quite an organised way, and Mark is able to edit it based a lot of my silences - or simply by me turning of the camera for anything repetitive. Well, not this one. I did not know how this was going to turn out - or what I was filming. So the editing took forever - I had to do it as Mark couldn't remotely figure it out, and I had to narrate afterwards and it just took ages. Not really cost effective by way of time, haha. I hope that you enjoy it though.

Speaking of time, can you believe it is already nearly a month since we were last on Create & Craft? Well, we are back this coming Tuesday (the 26th) and the show will feature Teneriffe Lace. Which hasn't been on your screens for at least a year. I'm looking forward to it and have been making some lace (spoiler alert, there will at least one lace themed video next week to add to the playlist).

Take care of yourselves, thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend - or week, depending on when you are reading this.

Playing catch up this week!

Hi Everyone!

Well, this week has been a bit mad for me - I hope you've managed to have a bit more of a relaxed time.

Busy busy getting ready for our next show over on The Craft Store - next Saturday the 19th. We will actually have 2 new button kits, and both will be exclusive to them for 7 days. As we move forward, most items that we launch over on the channel will be exclusive for a period of time. More about the kits next week.

The real rushing has been for the big job that I can't talk about haha. Lots and lots of extra items at very very rushed timescales now until the end of the month. A case of "oh I bet Gina can do that" I think haha! All very exciting, though time consuming!

Above is the video of last week's "Rain" contributions. Goodness me, every week just gets better, honestly! So many wonderfully creative people!

Have a fantastic weekend everyone xx

A new year - a new challenge - will you join me?

 

Happy Betwixtmas!*

I hope that you are all enjoying this slow time between the two holidays.

If you receive our newsletter, you'll know that I asked for opinions as to whether people would like to join me in a new challenge for the new year. So many people emailed to say they'd like to take part, we've worked it out.

It will be simple - you don't have to register or buy kits from us and you don't have make a button every week - just if you feel inspired. 

Interested? Why not visit the "official" blog for this - www.onebuttonaweek.co.uk - for the rules and prompts for the first 12 weeks. I'll post images of my buttons there towards the end of each week.

*Happy Betwixtmas was used by the lovely Alex Turchyn this week on the Craft Store. I love it, and think its a great greeting for this time of year. 

Wishing you all a very happy, healthy, safe and lucky 2022
