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!

I am using this cute new Christmas stamp from Stampendous. She is enjoying wrapping her gifts as much as I do!


Stamps:  Mint Gifts - Stampendous     Saying - Sparkle N Sprinkle
Dies:  Stitched Ovals - Gina Marie
Patterned Paper:  Park Lane Paperie
Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers

Thanks so much for stopping by. I hope to see you over at the challenge!
Have a wonderful day!
