Time to myself........

Hope everyone has had a good weekend???

Steve went fishing yesterday so I managed to get into my craft room and spend a few hours sat motivating myself to just make some cards and try some different things.......

I got my old sketch pictures and colour combo's out to see if I could inspire myself rather than just casing other peoples cards (although I never case them exactly!!)

So rather than just make a card because I have to (imminent birthday/celebration/anniversary) I wanted to just 'create', and here are the results.............







Thanks for stopping by to have a look around!

Stay safe

My oh my.......how long has it been???
Forever it seems - I just dont get any time to do any card making these days, and when a birthday crops up it just feels a bit like a chore to make one that I have even contemplated buying one!!!!!!

So I took a couple of hours today to make a few cards - 2 birthdays next week so it was quite essential that I made these but wanted to just try and relax and enjoy my craft time without getting stressed about not doing other things.........like getting the housework done or the washing!!

This first card is for my boss - she is leaving work to go and do something completely different and I wanted to make her something to say 'thanks' for all of her support and guidance.

 Having not done any crafting for a while I had to search the internet for some inspiration and have actually cased these cards from some very talented ladies out there.........just put my own spin on them x



This is for Steve's granddaughter who is turning 7 on Tuesday............no doubt she will barely notice the card and just want to see if there is any money in it!!!!  Bless her.......


It is also my very good friend, Donna's, birthday on Tuesday (I wont mention her age though...) and I wanted to make her something special........


The little box has post it notes in it and a magnet to close it..........


So, Mum, as you requested I have managed to not only make some cards but also put them on my blog, which I have neglected terribly - I need to win the lottery and become a house wife so I can get some cards made LOL xx

Hope you have enjoyed the cards I made - thanks for visiting.  Hope it wont be quite so long before I get back on here with some more cards to show you all.

Stay safe
