I have finally managed to make my Valentines promises book for Leroy. The total number of little books of love I made in the end was 14. Well done me!
Leroy s book has been made mainly using the products of the one and only Mr T Holtz. So glad I found Tim and his craft products. He is such and inspiration to so many people and a really nice guy.
The only part of the book not using Tims stuff is the little brass heart. All products were brought from the most amazing craft shop in the whole of the world - Art from the Heart - Must go and visit in the very near future as my soul needs feeding.
Not really sure what Leroy will make of the book, as he is my biggest critic. Also we are the most unromantic couple in the world and normally skip Valentines Day, but hey ho...................
I really want to spend this afternoon on one of the challenge that I follow, lastminute.com as ever, but we will see.

Baby boy blues and a little bit more luv
Spent the weekend just playing. I really need it to do it after a very stressful week and I am very lucky enough to be in the position to just shut myself away when I want to.
I made this little book for the birth of Baby Charlie. His Mum or Mam as they say up this end of the world asked me if I would add the photos as she was scared she might mess it up. Seeing as I had not taken any photos of it before I gave it away I said yes................... Also she was threatening to use sellotape!!!!!!!!!!
I managed to sell all six of my little books of love at work on Friday and I have a few people wanting to buy one, so I made another 5...........Bit miffed as Leroy made me put half the money in our money pot, affectionately known as the "Dingle Pot", how rude of him, wont tell him if I do sell the next 5.
I will be looking on the challenge blogs this week so hopefully next weekend will be a return to messy paints and inks. I am really looking forward to Dy's release of her new colours, stamps and stencils under the Banner of Ranger................I have told the other half I am having them all.
Have a good weekend , TFL

Love is in the air!!!!!!
Well that was a vile two weeks ........................Really think I need to win the lottery.
So to cheer myself up, I took today off work and finished a few little Valentine books. I think they are so sweet and a very inexpensive present to give a loved one. I think I may have sold most of them, which is always good. All proceeds will be going towards my CHA must have goodies fund and boy are there a few must haves.
Anyway here is what I have been messing on with today.
This little lot
became these little cuties
