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.

Happy Cockapoo!

Today I have two makes with the gorgeous "Happy Cockapoo" stamp from Crafty Individuals. 

The first is a decoupage card, and the second is a take on a "See No Evil ...." card. There are videos for both - just click on the photos.



Decoupage card
The stamp has some quite defined white areas around the face which make this perfect for decoupage. And the design of this with the zentangle, means you can play with colours! 



See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil
I used my X-Cut Circle punches to create the glasses and the headphones.


    

And this is how I created the bone, and then cut into the muzzle of the dog for it to sit in.
