I'm sure I've mentioned it hundreds of times, but my Grandmother is 94 and lives alone, so I like to make her a card for Christmas because she doesn't get very many. Unfortunately her sight and hearing are both very bad, which adds to her isolation - she has a carer who comes in daily… Continue reading Granny’s Christmas Card

Christmas Card Swap Card #5
So I know what you're thinking - what happened to card #4? Well I thought it was better to post 4 cards on time and one late than 3 cards on time and two late, so I used the card I made for World Card Making Day 2014 as card #4...

Goodbye Sandwich Students Cards
Awww! I can't believe this crop of Sandwich Students have been with us for just under a year already! They have been wonderful - really engaging & outgoing, throwing themselves into the science & any social occasions with gusto, I'm sure the work groups they have been based with will be sad to see them… Continue reading Goodbye Sandwich Students Cards

Mother’s Day card 2014
This card involved lots of elements! I was hoping to enter it in the February Lilli of the Valley Monthly Challenge, but I finished it too late... My Mum simply adores gardening, so even though the stamp used is one of the boys from Lilli of the Valley, it always makes me think of her!… Continue reading Mother’s Day card 2014
