About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

A bit of Shabby Chic

Morning! Thought it was time I gave a bit more attention to my blog!! So, today I have a card made using Sara Signature Shabby Chic collection.


The base of this one is Kraft card, and I used the Antique Edge die from the collection to create the front. I also used Filigree Flourish and Aged Rose (edged with a little Vintage Photo Distress Ink) - and the little backing for the flower is from the Weathered Window die set.

The papers are from the Shabby Chic 6x6 paper pad, and I added some flat backed pearls and pearl trim for embellishment.
