Ive been a slack blogger!

Yep Ive been a bad blogger. I have been making stuff but Lil' Red Rocket has had me super busy and hasn't left much time for anything else so, I guess its time for a catch up.
I made the OTP frame above for my boys (well me really lol.)
Lots of Crate paper and a bit of OA thrown in for effect. Ive always wanted to make one of these and I'm really glad that I finally got around to it. Ive got plans to do another one now.

This is for this months sketch challenge at Handmade by Suzanne. Ive flipped it but its still basically pretty true to the original sketch. Check it out HERE.
Now for a close up.

These next 3 are for some classes Ill be teaching at my LSS soon so if your in the hills Id love you to pop by. Ill be back with all the details when the dates and times are confirmed.

OK that's all for now. Ill be back with more soon. I hope lol. TFL

SKETCH TIME!!!

To celebrate my other baby's birthday LIL'RED ROCKET that is, we are hosting a sketch challenge for the month of October.
This month I decided to join in for a change and so here is my example.

 Ive used one of my all time favourite LRR buttons here, a red apple button you may also notice one of our new vintage tags, designed by yours truly and....

one of my other favourites a red gingham button.

I have distressed them both with a little brown ink on the edges to give them that worn/aged look.

Here is the sketch. We would love to see your entries with a fabulous Lil' Red Rocket prize pack full of our new release buttons for the winner and rainbow button packs to be won by our 2 runners up.

You don't need to use Lil' Red Rocket products in your entry but you will need to post your entry on your    blog and link your post back to the Mr Linky Link in the LRR side bar.

All entries need to be in by October 30 and Australian and international entrants are all welcome.

We will announce the winners in early December. I hope you will join in to help us celebrate our second birthday. HERE is the link so pop on over and check out some of the other DTs awesome creations and help us celebrate our birthday. TFL xx
