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 <><

Sue's 2013 Birthday Card

I saw an advert for some die cutters to make a card that looked very similar to this. When I looked closely I thought, well I have cutters that are so close in design, I reckon I could have a go at sort of copying it.

Having some lovely lime green card from Papertrey that I was looking forward to using, set about making Sue's card.  Sue likes (in colour coding terms) summer colours, so I set about using some blues and silver to try and pull it round to something that I thought she may like.

I did have a bit of a wobble mind you... because she isn't overly fond of cards with flowers, and these are sort of flower elements, although not actual pictures.

She said she liked it... I hope she did, and wasn't just being polite.

It is difficult to make cards for card makers.
