Bio.
I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at College many years ago, I now work as a Medical photographer part time but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion and I loved sharing my cards with like minded people.
I love stamping and loved finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself.
This then has become my second addiction and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and its just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Many thanks to our Generous Sponsors for their Continued Support

I love hot chocolate so I'd be right at home with this House Mouse. Your card turned out so cute and colored so nicely. I love the scene you created with the window and the snow outside. [Bunny]

April what a fun card. The wood background and window are so fun with this little image. I can hear the sign from the little mouse as he lowered himself into the warm drink. Sweet card, love it.

Hugs
