FloatingHippo Crafts Love having a go at all handicrafts, and take commissions on many. Particularly like using Stampin Up! products for card making and paper craft.

I can confirm the new Stampin' Up detail scissors are fantastic. I always thought my old green handled scissors were superb. Then I bought a pair from SU and Wow! The difference is unbelievable. Having had to change supplier I was concerned. But a new source has been found and I bought these through demonstrator pre-order. Available in July at
£9.50 per pair.
Let me know if you're interested. They are superb.

I wonder how many other people have had a shower this morning and twice lost their light because they went under a bridge or through a tunnel?? 🤣🤣

Today was too hot for me, even for crafting. This was as far as I got! Ever had one of those days? Ah well, try again tomorrow.
Need to go shopping via boat. (Aldi has its own mooring! 😁) Then on to winding point ( turning circle named as boaters of the past without engines used the wind as an aid to turn their craft around). So that we can come back to where we are and move on a bit to fill with water. All good fun 🤣

Been having a go at something different for the boys (and female diy...ers! 😂) Prototype made, real thing tomorrow! Putting together stuff for a stall in aid of Manorlands Hospice at Silsden Town Hall with Crafty Heaven on Saturday 13th June. Just in time for Father's day! Come along and grab something a bit different to give as a card or gift this year! There will be lots of other gifts/cards to grab too. Any special requests let us know! Look forward to seeing you all there.

Thankyou Margaret McGettigan a lovely surprise ###

Fabulous day that really sums up why we live on a boat. We have moved around 8 to 9 miles, had stunning views and heard some wonderful bird song.
Ive spent quite a time literally mobile crafting, prepping birthday invitations for a very special little girl. What could be better. And oh yes! watched the red roses win too!

Now an evening assembling some bits!
