So I haven't blogged in awhile, ok well 20 months or so.... I think I'll try and blog more often, however from previous experience that may not happen. Anyhow....... here are some cards I made in recent weeks.

I was inspired to make these cards after sitting beside this very talented lady at a crop, and from whom I shamelessly lifted this idea, www.lbeescrafts.blogspot.com thanks Linda xx

This crop cost me a fortune, because I 'had' to buy the stamps that Linda was using; the Hero Arts Envelope stamp and monsters set!

This card was a last minute one, whereby I had NOTHING in the house I could give to a little girl for her 6th birthday. I used the pink cardstock underneath forever friends heart vellum, I then coloured a gorjuss girl stamp and had her sit on some ribbon.

And finally, a friend's son made his communion and despite owning more stamps than I'll ever need in my lifetime, I do not own an appropriate stamp for this occasion. In addition to this I didn't want to give money, so I looked online and found this tutorial on youtube www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FXoDtw6WCE, and this is my take on it.

I used red bassil cardstock and docrafts krate paper, penny black stamp and Sandylion Essentials stickers.

So, I will try and remember that I set this up!! TFL
