About Me

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. 2025 - Now due to my sore hands and bad eyes I make mostly digital cards and scrapbook pages.

Conjurer of Dreams 19 - anything goes with a twist Travel plans

Luckily I made these cards earlier this month.
I went to have my four weekly eye injections last Thursday but could only have the one in my left eye.  The specialist said that there was an infection in my right eye.  He took a swab to send to pathology that will be a week before it comes back and put lens in my eye and gave me different drops to put in 4 times a day.  I had to go back yesterday (Friday) and he told me that the infection has caused permanent image to my right eye.  My eye is sore, itchy and weeping.  I can't see out my right eye.  Thankfully I can see out my left eye.

Halloween card with Cute Bee digis

 I bought some more Cute Bee Digis digital stamps and Berenice very kindly had her illustrator colour them for me.  Also she made some logos for me.

This is the Halloween card I made with one of the coloured digi stamps.


I layered the coloured Kayla digital stamp onto WondersArtist papers from Wonderful gold and Halloween paper sets and added We are 3 sentiment.

I followed the April sketch at Cheerful Sketches
