Doodle- Thinking Day Connect 2016

Hello readers!  It's been WAY too long since my last post!  I've been on a Guiding break... except for sharing my resource files. 

I thought I would share with you some of the new doodles that i've been working on. I've had quite a positive response to my doodles this past year.  So, here is the newest 2016 Thinking Day doodle and card.  {I will post the rest of my doodles over the next few days so stay tuned!}
World Thinking Day 2016 Theme is "Connect" 
If you would like to request the above doodle 
refer to it as "Doodle 2016#1a"
World Thinking Day 2016 Card "Doodle 2016 #1b"


The card is blank on the inside allowing you to write whatever you like.  These are so much fun to colour!  If you are part of the insane "adult colouring" craze then these may interest you! 

Thank you so much for your patience with my lack of blog posts!

Canadian Guider Craft Articles

Hello blog Readers! I'm back...

 view Canadian Guider Spring 2015 PDF 

Owl & Toadstool crafts have , once again, been published in the magazine, Canadian Guider, Spring 2015! Woo hooo! It is always so exciting to see my blog post ideas in print.   

Thank You 
Canadian Guider!

The magazine staff had viewed my blog post "The Guiding Law" circuit board and asked if I would contribute the idea to the magazine. Of course I said Yes!  They also liked some of my hat crafts and a Brownie badge banner.  Take a look!


This Circuit Board idea is an oldie! I had made one of these back in my elementary school days...probably science class.  I now have a detailed pdf if anyone is interested. 
Here are some Hat Crafts:  The Trefoil brooch, the Knapsack, the Seahorse brooch, and the Owl Note Holder are my original creations.  The Campfire is an old idea.  The Sleeping Bag and Bag of Ice are NOT my ideas...they are from the awesome site Making Friends.com.  {The article may read as if I created those two as well but I did not}.
This adorable Brownie Badge Banner belongs to my sister-in-law Jane.  She made it when she was a Brownie.  A shout out to Sharon for her cool Guide Badge Pillow...I love it!  These are fab ways to display badges and crests.
That's all for this post my Guiding friends!  

Have a Nice Day!

GGC Magnetic Note Holder

Hello ! Just a short post about what I had received the other day...some "Happy Mail" from Girl Guides of Canada, Nova Scotia Council. They had sent all of their adult members a useful, little, magnetic note holder as a token of their appreciation.  Thanks GGC NS Council ! I appreciate it!

This is a neat little magnet to have on my fridge.
