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.

2nd guest designer card for Deedee's digis

This is my 2nd card as guest designer for Deedee's digis
blog:  http://www.deedeesdigis.com/
shop:  https://shop.deedeesdigis.com/


I have used papers, precoloured images and sentiment from Deedee's Carnival kids set


Deedee also has a digi of the month challenge.  I hope you will go over and join in the challenge.

I love using Deedee's precoloured digis especially when my eyes are bad.   If you enjoy colouring all the sets have outline images and white-filled layering images which you can colour yourself.

Layered Bugaboo Stamp "Chibi Flower Girl" onto paper from Pininkie and coloured her with markers.  Added sentiment, punched flowers and heart brads.  Layered onto pink, white, dark pink and light pink card.

I originally started this card for the last recipe challenge which was 3 word sentiment, 2 flowers, 1 image but didn't finish it in time so was lucky this challenge is anything goes.

My printer put white lines across the paper and I was going to try to print it again but a couple of the ladies at craft group on Friday said to leave it as it was.
