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.

Anyone for a beer?

Afternoon, I have been busy crafting on some messy stuff for the past four days!! It's the most inspired I have been in ages - to the point where I got so carried away, that I forgot to feed the dog this morning!! Don't worry - she's got a full belly now! I will share all that at a later date - lots of step by step stuff to sort and edit.

Anyway, a quick card to share today - this one is made using Create and Craft's Birthday Celebrations kit. Orange is not usually a colour I would reach for - but really like how this turned out. It's not complicated - but still effective.
The image on the topper is just perfect for a man's card. The matching backing card is really effective - and all I added was the die cut name (Crafter's Companion Diamond Press Block Alpha) and the buttons.

Hopefully he'll have received this today - before I plaster it all over social media.
