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.

Unstampabelles challenge - mixed media with a twist to alter something

The challenge at Unstampabelles this month is mixed media with a twist to alter something.
http://unstampabelleschallenges.blogspot.com.au/
I altered the cover of a Stampin Up journal book


Started with the blank notebook

Painted with lumiere paints
Then added lace, photo, papers from Bearly Mine Designs and Pininkie, Butterfly and frame diecuts, 
pictures, stickers and glitter.


My favourite things are Angels, Fairies, Teddy Bears, butterflys and flowers.

I am sorry the photo is not very clear, I only have  a little cheap camera.    I usually scan my cards and layouts but this was too thick to go in the scanner.

This month we are sponsored by Bizzy Bec's store and the prize is a Marianne Die
http://www.bizzybecscardmakingscrapbooking.com.au/

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

REMEMBER NO STAMPS ALLOWED.
