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 <><

Nina's 33rd Birthday Card

Nina would love to own a bag shop selling all the posh bags you can possibly purchase.... of course this is a dream she doesn't expect to realise, but there is nothing wrong with  dreaming.

So with the help of my sister-in-law and her card making CD, she produced the pictures for this card.

I then built the card up using the pictures and peel offs placed onto acetate to create this really effective card. This picture doesn't do the card justice, and you cannot see how all the windows are see-through. When the card was opened you could view the whole of the inside of the shop, rather than just peeking through the windows!

Nina thought it was the best card I had ever made for her so that was good.
