I'm not keen on sketch challenges - I find it difficult to start from a sketch, but I wanted to enter the Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge, so I decide to give this a go. Below is the sketch for the challenge. I cut a panel of 'Strawberry Slush' and embossed it with my Crafts-Too 'Tropical Flowers'… Continue reading Summer starts here – WMF19

Monochromatic Tag for IndigoBlu Challenge #16
Hi everyone!! Enjoying the weekend? I always seem to have too much to do & not enough time to do it in!

Thinking of you
Years ago I saw a beautiful coat at Badminton Horse Trials - I was enchanted, so I ended up parting with quite a lot of money for a coat that I often get out of the wardrobe just to stare at... I'm sure you will agree the material is gorgeous, teal is my favourite colour.… Continue reading Thinking of you
Mum’s Birthday card – 3 months early!!!
My late Step Brother always used to say I was 'very lastminute.com' & he had a point - I would always start a project and suddenly find that it should have been completed yesterday...

10th Birthday Card
Today is my eldest Niece's birthday, but because I've been ill for the last few days I didn't get her card completed until today! I used a white 6x6 tent-fold card for the base. I cut the green square from some patterned paper I got as a freebee with Cardmaking and Papercraft and attached it… Continue reading 10th Birthday Card

Well now that I've moved home & unpacked a few things (I'm still living in Cardboard City at the moment!!!) I'm sending out cards to my friends to let them know my new address.
