Mixing it up...

Good afternoon, dear Blogger buddies!  I know, I know, I am once again AWOL!  Mr Motivation is avoiding me with evasive manouevres - I am still crafting, it's just not things that I can share at the moment because it's for upcoming workshops or DT cards. My crafty table is now all clean and tidy so I'm hoping that will clear out the clutter in my brain aswell and I may find some inclination to create, just for the heck of it!
I am hoping to do a couple of Christmas craft fairs in the next month so have been making some post it note holders and gift card/money wallets...
...I've used decent Papermate pens and bagged each one with a header to write who the gift is to and from.  I'm also waiting for allsorts of other bits and bobs for me to alter - pegs to make peg fridge magnets, shopping list notebooks, bottle tops for more fridge magnets and I'm hoping to get some printed mugs done too. If anyone has any other ideas for some easy crafty items to sell, then I'd be grateful for the inspiration!
I've also made a quick card after being inspired by the lovely Donna's card here...
I used the Mixer image and Sewing and Lamp papers from A Play on Words and cased the fab layout that Donna used...think this will be one I'll be using again...
I used Labels Eleven for the image topper and a Nellie Snellen border, embellishing with some narrow pink satin ribbon, button and pearls.
Hope you've had a fab Monday and I'll be back in the morning with another fun challenge over at Passion for Promarkers...until then...
Hugs,
Lisa x

Super little gifts Lisa, these will sell like hot cakes on your stall. Love your pretty card too, it certainly looks as if Mr Mojo is still around.
