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/

Creative Fingers 264 - anything goes
https://creativefingerschallengeblog.blogspot.com/ 

I painted my journal page with Twinkling H2O watercolour paints
Sponged distress ink through rainbow and fairy stencils
Used markers through flower, grass and butterfly stencils
Stamped sentiment with an old stamp I have had for years with Versafine Clair ink
Added flowers and rhinestones

I hope you will go over later and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I would like to add my card to the following:
