Hi, Welcome To My Blog

I love various different types of crafts and have had a dabble at most over the years, some with greater success than others. I believe that apart from loving and giving, being creative is the next most important thing to do. There is something about being creative that taps into something deep within us that makes us feel good with the world. But then we were made in the image of God, God The Creator... so I guess being creative will be second nature to us if we allow. The problem is that many people will not have a go because they make the mistake of measuring themselves against others... and that is just not a good thing to do. I create because I like to create, not because I have to impress anyone else or be better than anyone else. I created this blog with a lot of help from my son-in-law, as a personal scrap book that I am happy to share with others if they wish to take a look.... Enjoy <><

Sheri's Birthday Card

I work with Sheri and this is the first birthday card I have made for her so I hope she likes it. The inspiration came when Chris from the 'Purple Peonies' blog came to craft.  She had the lovely die that cut the scalloped edge and I had the die cutters for the flower.  Well Chris started making a card cutting out this flower and then decided she didn't fancy using it so I wasn't going to let a good flower go to waste.
The background paper does look a bit 'peachy' but in actual fact it was a lovely pale ivory coloured paper... just in case you were thinking that these two colours don't go together!
