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 <><

This is the first card I made on our Cotswold Crafters day.

With some urgency I made this card because it was Anne's birthday the very next day.

I used an embossing folder to create the white broiderie anglaise design and then using some fabulous die cutters and stamps belonging to Chris, made the flowers.

If you want to see more cards using these then I can really recommend you go onto Chris's blog listed on the right hand side of my blog... called purple peonies.  She has made some lovely cards using them.
