For the last couple of days I have been doing some paper type crafts for CADS. Some worked, some didn’t but it’s all trial and error right! Here is my favourite 3 for you:

Traditional origami crane

  Circle dot box pattern from here – loads more on the blog go check it out!

What I would call a ‘x-mas bow’, useful for making your own present decorations on the cheap, I actually used a sudent loans leaflet and a Tesco mag to cut the strips out of, heh. You can find the tutorial here.

A couple of other notes for you, I forgot to add Heather or Craft Fail, Doller Store Crafts and CROQ Zine (does she ever stop?!) has been adding her CADS projects on flickr which you can find here, loads of awesome projects which she includes her adorable kids in too:)

Also I found out that this month is National Sewing Month! How convenient:) Have a look at the official National Sewing Month website you can also use one of your projects from CADS to Enter the 2009 Reuse, Remake, Restyle National Sewing Month contest.

I also am going to try and post everyday again, I have been a bit slack on posting but I promise a post a day if i’m not too busy.
