British Craft Awards 2017 Nomination Link

Shortlisted … !

Oh my lordy lou – remember that nomination for Papercraft Blog Of The Year that I was bleating on about before Christmas? Well this wee blog only went and got shortlisted!

I therefore just wanted to say a quick thank you to all that voted as you made that happen.

The awards ceremony is on Sunday but sadly I won’t be able to get to it as I will be making an appearance on Create and Craft TV at that time so I won’t know until next week if indeed it did make it all the way.

To be honest though, the fact that you all thought enough of my random ramblings to give it a vote means so much to me that I think I will be able to live with 100th place, let alone 1st.

THANK YOU!

Micro Photography – A World Beneath Your Feet

Watcha mates. I’ve often watched nature documentaries with fascination. Particularly the ones that show us the ‘hidden’ world of the micro organism and it’s juxtaposition against it’s larger brethren.

It was with this in mind that I whipped out my phone and attached one of those clip on micro lenses in order to see what I could see, or, couldn’t see if you catch my drift.

Was very pleased with the results – fancy a look?
