The colours in these photo's are just not how they should be, but you will get the idea I hope? All of the images and words are by Crafty Individuals.
The ladies at my class at Grimsby crafts wanted to try making some 'twinchies' using lots of leftovers and odd enbellishments, so I've made a start on some samples and have lots more 'on the go' to complete tomorrow. 
I just love working 'small', just wish I could do the same on a larger scale, but for some odd reason I really struggle.
I will soon be making a start on my acetate book class. Lynn is getting some lovely new stuff in and I have chosen the items above to include in the book. 
I have chosen these papers in browns and creams as a bit of a change as I am a bit 'pink' again at the moment.
They are from the Paper Reverie range by Making Memories. I love the bird one! 
I received the above 'goodies' in a lovely surprise package through the post yesterday. The advent calendar I altered received an honourable mention in the 'Let's Get Shabby' challenge in December and this was a prize from the sponsor'TALLULAHBELLES'. I might use some of the pieces on some more 'twinchies tomorrow. Until then.......Bye.....

OOOh you lucky thing....that package is gorgeous. I cannot wait to see what you create with the pretty bits and bobs Sue.
The twinchies are fantastic, I should have a go as my bits box and left over paper draw are full to the brim....I barely throw a think away. I am a very frugal scrapper nowadays with me not working. Stash shopping is normally at the bottom of the 'reality' list but always up top in the dream one...tee hee!
Have a lovely weekend.

You have some lovely new things to play with, Sue.
Your twinchies are so pretty and I understand completely about the scaling up problem. Impossible!!!
I know I am a technophobe etc, but are 'twinchies' 2x2 inches or something else. It is LATE.
Please explain.
Love your delicate colour palette too.

And what a wonderful surprise package.. Looks like you will be having some fun with those items..
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!!
