My First Memory Book

Here is the reason my best intentions to post more often went straight out of the window..I have succumbed to an awful addiction - making albums and books ! Halfway through one I'm already planning the next. As a result I have a number of partially completed items scattered about; this is the only one that has been actually completed and handed over to my younger granddaughter; she loves tea parties and baking, hence the choice of decoration.

I also started to make a Wedding Album - my own - yes, after too many years to mention my long-time partner and I decided to get married, which we did in August. My own album is amongst the incomplete items, I still need to sort out all of the photos.

Now that I've remembered how to do the technical bit, I will post my completed items on here and also on Facebook, where I have joined a number of groups made up of like-minded people; its lovely being able to share ideas and techniques.

Hope its not such a long time to the next time......

FIRST POST FOR A LONG LONG TIME !!!!!

It's so long since I last posted here that I had almost forgotten I even had a Blog. If anyone actually reads this, the eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that things have changed since I last posted. I am now retired from work (hurrah!), and I have acquired a third grandchild (hurrah!). Now that my time is more or less my own I can spend as long as I like on all the pastimes that previously had to be squeezed in around work.

I have not designed anything new for Craftsuprint for several years; I can't really explain why that is, I just seem to have fallen off that particular wagon, but my designs are still there on the site - apart from the ones that required graphics licences; they all had to be taken down.

I am currently occupied mostly with mixed media art. Fortunately all the stash I accumulated whilst creating cards is coming into its own now as I work on my various projects, but that doesn't mean I need an excuse to indulge in any new products that take my fancy.

I decided to resurrect the blog to display some of my projects, which will be my next step. It's not out of vanity, my work is strictly amateur, but I think its important to show others that if you want to do something you should really just have a go! It doesn't matter if the outcome is not perfect, it just has to make you happy in the creating of it. So I shall try to remember how to upload the photos, and will try any show some of my stuff really soon.

Hugs xxxx

BACK IN THE SADDLE

 

 

 

At last! I've finally manages to get some new designs done....I've been off the circuit for several months following the death of my dear old mum in February; just couldn.t seem to get myself motivated to get on with anything new - but here we are, I decided to have a little tinker about, and these two designs are the end result. They should be available on the CUP site within about 48 hours at the amazing price of only 80p....so please go along and take a look ...just click the link at the top of the page and it will take you there.....

 

 

Hope you like them.....

 

 

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL

I'm so relieved to have 'found' my little BlogSpot ~ I treated myself last week to a new computer, and it has taken me AGES so far to set it all up to my liking.

I wanted to take the opportunity of wishing you all a Happy New Year, and I hope that 2013 will be happy, healthy and prosperous to us all.

As soon as I've mastered all (or at least enough) of the knobs and whistles on this new gadget of mine, I hope to start posting some new designs, which I hope you will like enough to go along to the CUP site and purchase.

Thank you to everyone who purchased designs from me last year - I hope I can come up with new delights for you very soon.

New Designs

Haven't had much time for designing lately - something to do with Christmas being on the way.....  :) doesn't all just take AGES !!!

Anyway, here are a few new selections that should be validated soon, including a last minute card-make showing line-ups of penguins - just right for the odd one or two you forgot about.
