Thin waistline or thin wallet.

Posted on: 22/01/2012 00:28:31 Quarantine this entry

I have this new thing, I either allow myself to buy cake or craft stuff in a day.

Yesterday I chose chocolate, but that's besides the point!!! (and technically I didn't buy it!)

The day before I bought some art materials so that was a big no to cake.

It's an expensive hobby baking/eating/crafting.

If I had to be honest, I love cake. Cake is the best, I am a dessertoholic.

Every time I go out for a meal with mark I'm always eyeing up the dessert menu, regardless of how full I am!

So Craft V Cake.

Craft is the healthier option, but it isn't easy on the wallet, at least cake is cheap.

Well some cake. I do like my expensive cake too, mmm luxury deluxe super fancy cake. I love going to tea shops.

Art and crafts is my thing though. Cheers me up. At least it's guilt free calorie wise, and I don't have to work it off at the gym.

I think all in all this has been a bit of a ramble.

ah well.

at least I got it out of my system, aiming for craft tomorrow. :)

Kelly.

I haven't been active lately due to my pursuit of teaching.

I still have been making commissions every so often, so I have photographed,

some I have not.

just a quick update.

Craft fair

Posted on: 14/08/2011 09:34:24 Quarantine this entry

I'm preparing for a craft fair, and ofcourse I've agreed with things not thinking on the implications...-rolls eyes-

I'm doing two days until four o clock, and do I have enough cards?!

Nope.

So I'm a daft git for agreeing to this in the first place.

So I'm making cards like a mad-woman.

Craft table?

Posted on: 06/08/2011 19:10:18 Quarantine this entry

Today I went to a craft fair, and it was nice enough, but I was thinking, how can I get in on this?

I have no idea how to go about selling cards on a craft stall!

I've done commissions, I want to raise a bit for charity.

I don't know how to contact people about these things.

I'm googling it and may get in touch with people about it.

Will try my best, wish me luck!

Entry 2: The brain/printer block.

Posted on: 17/07/2011 20:55:04 Quarantine this entry

Hellos.

I have just got some stuff ready, got some paper and such like for christmas but inspiration is yet to strike! Oh the shame! :P

I want to start on another project, and I wish the blinking printer would sort it's self out as I want to do my graduation scrapbook entry and finish the one from may when my friend from america came over to visit.

But alas it still prints streaky, damn.

I'd love to sell my cards and help charities and go to craft fairs and sell them and stuff but I don't have the guts, and I have no idea how to get started.

I'd love to also go to a workshop or a craft group but I am yet to find one in my area.

Anyway that's my little winge done, I wish I could find a job, well I wish something would start I'm getting a bit frustrated with the lack of stimulation.

I hope I get onto this teaching course for september.

The Kelly: An Introduction.

Posted on: 13/07/2011 12:36:52 Quarantine this entry

Hello I am Kelly Kels.

(Kels is not my surname it's just a nickname, people always ask that :S)

Just an introductory blog post really.

I love to make things, and I would love to design and make cards for a living but unfortunately it doesn't pay the bills.

I really want to be a teacher/tutor and I'm working towards that at the minute but there's no reason why I can't produce a few cheeky little cards now and again.

I also scrapbook but this is on hold for a while because the house printer is leaving the pictures I try to get with streaks and stripes which would be a lovely effect if that was the one I was going for!

I sometimes write articles, poems and stories, and I'm about to write another subcultural article on www.mookychick.co.uk about Kawaii Noir (Dark Kawaii) I've written one about frogs and toads already which was more of an opinion article.

I like being creative and learning new things so I will be on the look out for new card making techniques, but If you want to chat or ask anything feel free as I am pretty cheerful and accommodating.

Kelly.

About me

A kelly, who loves her anime, likes to learn and try new things, tries to work hard and wear purple whilst doing it!

I make cards, cakes and other crazy stuff.

I can make anything paper related.
I also paint (which I am not so good at) Draw (which I am better at) and Write (which I am pretty good at.)

I went to University and did my three years in cultural studies but still looking for full term employment and I wish to be a teacher.

I have recently got into the habit of cleaning up after my boyfriend...which makes me feel like a stereotype...I am not pleased about this fact.

My Plan for my life is: progress in education, travel and have fun with my main man mark-san. Then from there I'm just winging it.

Interests

I'm a big geek, and have come to accept this fact.

I love comics, cartoons, anime, sci fi, cult films, musicals (good ones and not over done ones) I love drawing, writing, art and craft, cooking up vegetarian and cake recipes, music, all cultures especially Japanese culture, and cute but dark things. (kawaii Noir) I also love my pet toad The Hypnotoadddd...(Pac man toad) :P
