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.

Break of Dawn

This was an anniversary card for my in-laws, using an ancient Kanban topper called (I think) Break of Dawn. It was a lovely collection with beautiful watercolours of sunrises.


I love the pastel colours of this one, and have teamed it with some blue Kanban patterned card, and I think the pink might be Craftwork Cards (or Hunkydory).

The letters are cut using Crafter's Companion Essentials Alphabet dies. 

Happy crafting,

Anniversary Wishes

A quick share today. This is an anniversary card for my sister and brother-in-law made using a very old Kanban topper set. It could be Break of Dawn - but I may be wrong.

I used up lots of bits of cards from my scraps box to co-ordinate the colours, and cut the sentiment with Crafter's Companion Essentials Only Words dies.

Happy crafting.
