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 <><

Mary's Birthday Card

Mary's birthday card 2012 was inspired by the ribbon. I loved the ribbon when I saw it in the shop and knowing she liked burgundy decided to buy it.

When I came to make the card I discovered that using this unusual ribbon wasn't quite so easy and after a time of fiddling about... this is what I came up with.

Using lovely dotty papers layered I then used this ribbon to look a little like a plant growing up the side.
