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.

Merry Monday 123 - use a wreath

The challenge at Merry Monday this week is use a wreath
http://merrymondaychristmaschallenge.blogspot.com.au/

I have embossed red card with Funky Poinsettias embossing folder.  Printed The East Wind digi "Christmas Wreath with sleepy cats" onto oval.  Cut out and coloured with markers and layered onto red card.  Printed out second image, cut out flowers, coloured with markers and layered up onto top of flowers in the first stamp. Stamped Happy Christmas and punched out with scalloped oval and layered onto red card.  Layered all onto green card.

You can buy the lovely East Wind Stamps at https://www.etsy.com/shop/theeastwind
