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 Sponsor for their continued support. 
 

I have been seeing this paper ribbon technique on line, so I decided to try it on this card. I enjoyed making it for the background of my card. This is a good way to use up some paper scraps!




Stamp:  Spring Mini Clear Set - Stampendous
Dies:  Stitched Oval - Gina Marie
Dotted Oval - Sizzix
Flower Soft - on top of hat
Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers
Technique:  Paper Ribbon

Thanks so much for stopping by. Use up those scraps and hop on over to the challenge! Have a wonderful day!

they are too cute peeking out from under the hat, that is a fun technique for the background, a girl in my cardmaking group shared a card like that today, it was the first time I had seen it. Your paper choices go great with your image!
