UKS Whodunnit CyberCrop Days 12 - 21

Well, so much for keeping up with blogging! I'm officially useless at it. Never mind, I hope you're sitting comfortably today. Here's my work for days 12 - 21 for the UKS Whodunnit Cyber Crop pre-crop daily challenges (if you're interested in how any of it was done, please leave a comment to that effect and I'll come and find you):

Day 12: Doing Time - Make something time related

I made a small clock from a CD-Rom

Day 13: You're Nicked! - Use something unrelated to scrapping

I used wire mesh usually used for repairing cars

Day 14: Hello, Hello, Hello What have we here then?

Introduce yourself and your favorite detective/film/novel.

"Hi everyone, my name's Sarah C and I am totally addicted to stash, especially Bazzill and PPs. Green Tara blossoms are my all time weakness though and I've recently told myself that if I don't start using them, I won't have room for more

I'm not into 

crime/detective/thriller programmes/books/films, although as a child, I used to love watching and reading about The Famous Five and Secret Seven. Anyone else remember them? I still have a Famous Five book that I read more than once. Nowadays I prefer to read true life stories or chick lits. Sad, but true."

Day 15 : Go Ahead – Make My Day - Take a picture of what makes your day!

Lots of things make my day, but having pretty scrapbooking papers definately make my day and here they all are on the shelves David made me from wood scraps. Thanks David, it works a treat. 

Day 16 - I’ll be Back - use something you’ve not used in a while!

My mini wooden stamps

Day 17 - Little Grey Cells - make or use a miniature embellishment

This is about 1" in diameter

Day 18 - Mug shot - post a pic of yourself in the mug shot gallery...there is a special gallery for posting your mug shot in, you can either post a regular photo of yourself or you can go the whole hog and 'pose' with a number like a real mug shot!

Day 19 - CSI - Take a pic of things beginning with C S and I – they have to be placed together in the same picture

Day 20 - Between the Lines - make a journaling block, decorate it however you like

I got carried away and made several digi ones. The Dottie and George images are available excusively from Charmed.

Day 21 - Identity Parade - Detective Quiz that had to be e-mailed by 7pm tonight, which I've managed to do!

All 21 challenges completed and all 21 doughnuts received.

There was a pre-crop LO challenge and it had to be uploaded to the correct and hidden part of the gallery. I did my LO and somehow I uploaded it wrong. I have no idea what I did, but I did try and will show you that on Monday.

Cybercrop starts at 7pm tonight and continues until Sunday night, so I'll see you all here after that and upload all my work. We'll see how much I manage to do.

Take care and be safe out there if you have snow and ice like we do here.

Loads of love to all my friends

UKS Whodunnit Cybercrop - Day 11

Thanks to the UKS Whodunnit Cybercrop, I shall go to the wedding. The final date for getting replies in is 29th January and as it's my youngest sister's wedding, you'd think mine would be one of the first to be sent back. How wrong you are as it's still sitting on my craft desk. But, it is one step nearer to being sent. I really must envelope it and take it with me when I go out tomorrow.

So, on to the Whodunnit Day 11 pre-crop challenge. We were challenged to use our decorative scissors. I used mine to cut the edges of the base card before I inked them. I also used corner scissors to cut the PP. The off-cuts from that, I used inside the card.

Dottie and George are pre-coloured and exclusively from Charmed

Day 9 - scrap your most identifying characteristic

Thanks for looking.

As always, take care
Love and hugs

Another catch-up - UKS Whodunnit Cybercrop

UKScrappers have a cybercrop week-end on the 6th, 7th and 8th February. To warm us up, we've been given a pre-crop LO challenge and daily challenges. Each daily challenge earns us a doughnut which we've been told we get to eat at the end LOL

Doughnut (yummy!)

I'm in the Lady Julia Grey Special Branch team

So far, there's been 8 daily challenges (excluding today's) and here's my daily crafting

Day 1 - make a bookmark

Day 2 - fingerprint and interrogate someone

Day 3 - Construct a 'usual suspects' LO using yesterday's evidence

Day 4 - Make a tag

showing hidden compartment

Day 5 - Decorate a bag

Day 6 - Use mini-doughnuts (eyelets) to make an embellishment

Day 7 - Prepare some interrogation questions for a teamie
(this was done completely digi)

Day 8 - Use spray mist or spray ink on a layout

I've been having great fun with this cybercrop and getting to know some of the other detectives on my team. I can hardly wait for the week-end's crop to come round. Prior notice, I will be away from here that week-end, but will be back to catch -up with you all and to show you what I get up to.

Love and hugs,
