UIU – 1/23 update

January 23, 2012 by Carol B.

Just dropping in to update my UIU (Use It Up) projects. Haven’t done a lot but have gotten a few things done.

First I made a postcard using a paper cocktail napkin, lace, ribbon, trim and a rubber stamp.

Then I played around with making a tag using another paper napkin, card stock, pearl cotton and rick rack.

One night on Stickam, ladyoflosttimes was making an art doll using a tag and beads. It turned out so cute than I had to try my hand at it too. Luckily there was a face bead in my stash along with loads of beads and findings.

What a cute doll! I had no idea there were doll face beads. Didn’t know you also had a Ginger cat. Is yours a tortie? Yours looks like a close cousin of ours~ Our Ginger has more black on her face and is quite hefty! She also licks the fur off her tummy and hind feet. Have you ever heard of cats doing that?
