You are the Best!

Well it is a horrible wet windy day here today, just the sort of day where I feel very lucky to be retired so I can stay indoors and craft!

Yesterday I received my new Sue Wilson Dies and couldn't wait to have a play with them.
I really love them especially the bow, no more searching for ribbon to match my cards and always a perfectly tied bow!  This is the first card I have made using the dies, I am off to play again so I could be back later with another card for you!




Glamoureyes!

 Hi there, well I am going to try and give my blog a bit more attention from now on, I wonder how long my good intentions will last?? Lol 
Below are a selection of cards which I have made in the last week using the lovely Digi Stamps from Glamoureyes, hope you like them!

Well I can't believe it is nearly 6 months since I last added anything to my blog!!  Where has the time gone??

It has been quite a busy time for me, after 22 years of living in Cambridge I took the decision to move down to Wiltshire to be near my lovely daughter and her family.  Having to pack up a house on my own and get rid of all the rubbish you collect over the years was not easy!!  I have still brought too much stuff with me but it is so hard to part with your memories!  I moved in November and it wasn't until the week before Christmas before I had unpacked, although I still have a couple of boxes to look in.

My crafting has taken a back seat during all this time, I am just getting back into the swing of things although I must admit my mojo is not what it was!

Anyway enough of my rambling, here is a card I made tonight which I would like to enter in the challenge over at:

Glamoureyes Digi Stamps

Hi everyone, sorry it has been a long time since I last blogged.  I have had a busy few weeks with family visiting and then my son who lives in France, got married on 20th July, so I have had a quick trip to France too!

I am delighted to be on the design team for a new range of stamps and digi stamps by Glamoureyes, the very talented Sarah Mauchline!  This is a range you must look out for, Sarah is an established children's illustrator and also has her own range of digi kits on Daisytrail for all you Serif fans out there!

Here are a few of the cards I have made using the new stamps, hope you like them.

Andy Skinner Workshop

Today I spent a very enjoyable 6 hours at an Andy Skinner workshop where we learnt to do an image transfer with crackle effect.  It was great fun, a bit messy but that is what crafting is all about!






Two for the men and one for the ladies!



Hello again, today I have two for the men and one for the ladies!  All these cards are made using stamps by the lovely talented Sam Poole.  I just love the Owl stamp, I think he has such character and looks great as both male and female, what do you think?
