I very nearly didn’t submit my report today because I just didn’t feel like it. Instead, I put on some music and squeezed out some fance! ⇒ Incredible needlework by benjibot, asking all the hard questions. Who DID die and make you Mr. Fancy? Hmmm? ⇒ For a while I was completely obsessed with the…

Friday Fance: cats, mangos and whimsy
⇒ I wonder what makes cats so fancy? I’m not a cat person myself, but I can’t deny Caitlin Shearer’s Leaning Tower of Cats has far too much whimsy for it’s own good! Caitlin will also be participating in Once Upon – her fairy tale is Cinderella. ⇒ There is nothing better than mango. NOTHING!…
This little piggy went to market
I was in a shocking mood this morning but we went to the markets and bought loads of beautiful fruit and veges (and flowers!) so now I’m feeling a lot better. Included in our market booty: pomegranates to make pommie cupcakes, and besan flour to make delicious vegetable kofta balls. I took some photos of…

Happy Father’s Day!
It’s Father’s Day in Australia and New Zealand tonight, so we went over to Mum and Dad’s to have a big family dinner. I gave Dad this card, which I made from reclaimed materials (including: card from Reverse Garbage, drawing from my notebook and paper from Frankie magazine). We also made Dad special home made…
Fanciful Friday
Surprise! It’s Friday! I really have no idea where my week went, but I suspect you’ll find it under a pile of eraser leavings and pencil shavings. I keep a tin full of them, I’m not even kidding. As for the picture, I wanted to share just how fancy I am. Even when brushing one’s…
