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/

2025 - Now due to my sore hands and bad eyes I make mostly digital cards and scrapbook pages.

Conjurer of Dreams - Facebook freebie

Every month Conjurer of Dreams is going to give a free image to join the Facebook group challenge
https://www.facebook.com/groups/690288322484648

When you make a card you can request the next free image.

I forgot to request the next image  until yesterday so I just received this one.

I can't see to colour so I have just made a black and white card.

I have layered the free image onto one of Conjurer of Dreams Black Silk Backgrounds and then onto grey background. 
 Added flourish from Digital Scrapbooking Studio, heart shapes and We are 3 sentiment 

I followed Sketch Saturday 770 (I rotated the sketch)
