Before I get into the main post, apologies to those whose blogs I've neglected, and who I owe an email or post, Life™ has been a bit hectic. I've been away at another camp which was a real bonus, very chilled and recharged as a result, plus there's been lots of family stuff going on. Hopefully life™ will shortly return to normal and I'll get back to some regular crafting/blogging (famous last words).
Anyway, back to the real reason for this post.
Following my last post, I received a comment from Joanna/Asia asking if she could have a page as well, so in a moment of madness I asked her what she'd like and the reply was:
"long legged birds and moths"
Nothing difficult then!
After racking my brains, I was looking at the long legged birds from the Octopode Factory, and thought "they look a bit moth eaten". Ta-da - I have an idea, so I present to you "Moth Eaten" - especially for Joanna.
Now, anybody else got any weird ideas, or can I get back to my normal* crafting?
Also, when I was creating this page, I had a visit from this wonderful creature, and yes it really was 5cm across (2" in old money).
*Normal is a relative term :)

ReplyDeleteHope Life™ will be kinder to you soon, it's treating me very harshly at the moment, too, so I know how you feel... x
great how you've put Moth Eaten behind what looks like gauze AND a visit from that handsome moth ... do do do do (to the tune of twilight zone)
