WELCOME: Just a bit of nonsense really from a paper crafter and quilter who loves to dabble in all sorts of crafts. It will give me a way of remembering my craft projects - and sharing them with others

Mr Mojo has been my only friend

Not the best weeks it has to be said.... tardy builders, no bath, resignations and uncertainty at work not to mention needing a new clutch for the car. Imagine my surprise then when Mr Mojo decided to pay a visit.  Been turning out cards left, right and centre.

The first was a vintage lady which I used as a Get Well Card for a colleague who has had surgery.  The basic card is a piece of 12x12 paper folded into 4 and decorated with the usual bits and bobs- lace, flowers, doily, a bit of bling and ribbon.


The next is one which uses a Design Sheet from a MCS CD called Cool Britannia (I think).  This is for Carole's birthday on Sunday.  It didnt really require alot of creativity I suppose but it was fun doing it. Keep Calm is very popular and I just heard about a site where you can create posters with your own slogans for free. Check it out here   http://www.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/

CAROLE'S BIRTHDAY

Got a bit behind with my blogging.  Here is the card I did for my friend Carole for her birthday using a LOTV image in an easel card design.  Made this up 3 times before I got the pinks just right.

IT'S A BUSY TIME OF YEAR

I got all excited when I discovered Magnolia stamps and loved the way the designers were decorating the cards with paper flowers. I immediately  rushed around ordering bits and pieces from the web and started on my first card. Needless to say I wasn't happy with my first effort as the colouring in of the Tilda image wasn't right. I have since ordered some Promarkers for my second attempt.

I couldn't bear to throw away the basic part of the card so I used an image from a Joanna Sheen CD and finished it off with some FlowerSoft.  Here is the finished card which I gave to my good friend and line dancing buddy, Carole.




 More soon
