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. family:";">http://faeryink.com/product/granmargaret-fairy-digital-stamp/

LeAnn's World 101 Facebook progressive freebie challenge

Each month LeAnn gives a free image to join the Facebook challenge
 https://www.facebook.com/groups/1836531013324656

If you haven't already joined in you can buy this month's digi and make a card for the challenge which ends on 30 September and then you will receive the October image.

Because my eyes are so bad I printed the free image Trick or Treat Judy large and coloured the background with Twinkling H2O watercolor paints and the digi with Watercolor pencils and water.  I then scanned it and reduced it down to fit onto a card.
I layered it onto papers from Digital Scrapbooking Studio and added pumpkins.

I followed sketch 124 at Cheerful Sketches
