Granmargarets cards-n-stuff: January 2023

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.

Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.

Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.

I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.

The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge. family:";">http://faeryink.com/product/granmargaret-fairy-digital-stamp/

Gecko Galz January Steampink challenge

Every month Gecko Galz gives a free picture to join the Gecko Galz Steampunk challenge
http://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/gecko-galz-monthly-steampunk-challenge.html

I layered the free Gecko Galz Steampunk picture for January onto paper from My Memories Steam Punk Dream Mini Kit by Pat's Scrap. Added coloured elements from same Kit.
Added Ric Rack from E Scape and Scrap

I followed sketch Saturday 717 (I rotated the sketch) with twist used a new picture)
