Ok I  will admit it, I am not great at craft but I have wanted to set up a blog for a very long time. I am not the smartest when it comes to technology  I want to show people that it’s OK if you struggle with technology, craft, spelling, grammar. I am a very slow learner but through crafting I am learning something every day. I have no idea how to set up a blog and it will probably take me over a year to figure it out (AND I WILL) 

 I plan to make simple projects and hope that I am able to explain and show you how I made it. But most importantly I want to be able to have a little giggle and not take it all too serious.
I have no idea at all how to make this blog look remotely interesting. So please if you happen to stumble across this blog. Say hello. 

 Baby steps 

 Thank you for visiting my blog. Please leave a comment of support.

HTV ON BLINDS TUTORIAL

Brain wave!!!! OK I know I am not alone. I sat staring at my blinds for months wondering if I will ruin them If I put HTV on them. I am using Cricut to cut out a design I purchased and edited years ago.  Im also using vinyl from  GmCrafts (Click Here) .  I have old blinds (not only are they old but they were cheap as chips) that I am going to experiment with you can pick one up from Argos, B&M's or Harry Corry's.  I would advise at this point to only use a blind you are prepared to ruin and not one that you have paid over £300 for.   This is the design I used, you can find something similar on Etsy. Or If you are subscribed to Cricut Access then you can design your own  (here is a basic example)  Just search for music notes and swirls and experiment. I cut the vinyl on Glitter Iron On setting and it cut and weeded perfectly. Weed It Out Ready To Rock Normally Metallic or Holographic HTV is so temperamental and is a nightmare to cu

Using FontLab Pad To Create PERFECT text in Cricut Design Space

 There is a quicker and easier way to create text in Design Space Using FONTSLAB PAD Download  fontlab-pad  you will be asked to send your email address and then you will receive the link.  Design space does NOT display the fonts they way that the designer intended it to be, the spacing is very very frustrating and it takes a lot of time trying to get the text aligned properly.  I have all my font folders on my Desktop as it makes it so much easier to access. To do this just right click on your desktop and create new folder, The folder I am going to chose is Font Bundles Top Fonts  I downloaded some folder Icons. .

Thoughts on the Foil Quill

My thoughts on the Foil Quill Using Cricut I have had the quill now for a few months. I am not an avid crafter so I have not used it to create a card Ive only tested it on various materials. I like to try out things that not alot of people are making. I just love experimenting! Foiling on Gloss Vinyl  I decided to foil on some gloss vinyl and purchased this design as I thought it was super CUTE!!! click here to purchase design I tried to tape the foil down best that I could but as per usual it came loose whilst foiling :(   I am using Heat Reactive Foil/Hot Stamping Foil. Please do not get confused with Toner Reactive Foils as this WILL NOT WORK.  I used the Pink Pen tool for the thinnest line. Remember to let it heat up for about 5 minutes before using. I really am impressed with the outcome. SUPER CUTE!!! So next was to try it on Matt Vinyl, Using the same method as above. Again it turned out great!!! So now I was feeling a little adv
