New Year starting the spring cleaning















Didn't realize what a mammoth task it would be to decorate my craft room. Well worth the effort.


































I bought these stamps from a lady called Sue in America. The rate of exchange was good at the time. I love painting them. I used them to make an engagement card for a friends daughter.












My DD photos of her 18th, I was very proud of her. I made the flowers for the cake.

Busy transfering
















My DH has bought me a new laptop as my computer was becoming quite unreliable. It's taking a little time to find my way around vista. I'm transfering pics to keep them safe and files that are invaluable. Here are some recent pics from recently purchased cds.

New Year







We take inspiration from some very clever people. I constantly find myself revisiting blogs and forums all around the world. In my little corner of the web I like to post pics of cards that are some of my favourites. This year I'm going to try and blog most days. (Let's see how long it lasts).
Some of the Graphicus stamps I used to make Christmas presents. My favourite ink at the moment is London Fog as recommended by Lesley at Graphicus. Thanks.

A few more pics.





The backing paper is waste from a friend who was marbling with a group of children at school, the magpie effect set in. A first xmas card for the lollipop ladies Grandson turned into a mini book. My first attempt at a book. I used the Joanna Sheen messy rabbits. I'm taking it into school to raffle. And my first attempt at a candle, I suspect there will be more (loved the process).

Nearly Xmas
















I've been so busy with work and card making I've not had ome to blog. Taken lots and lots of pics, will start to post some of them.
