Hi, welcome to my little crafty place on the web! I,ve been crafting one way or another all my life, and card making for the last 8 years and am now totally hooked! I live with my husband of 32 years, Robert and two children, Claire, 24 and Andy, 21. I am a primary school teacher and currently teach 6 year olds.

Hola! Back Home Eventually!

Hi, all, glad to be back again! Went to Tenerife for a week a fortnight ago. Stayed at the lovely Vulcano Hotel and had a great week recharging the old batteries then could not fly home because of all the volcanic disruption everywhere. We tried to treat it like another week's holiday but got quite stressed out not being able to return to my work on Monday. We realised that it was beyond our control and just tried to enjoy another week in the sun courtesy of Thomas Cook - at least it didn't cost us anything but we had to kind of live from day to day not knowing when we would return and wondering if we'd be better to try to get ome or just sit it out. So glad we stayed put when we saw all the hassle lots of people had trying to get home.
Anyway, back to work tomorrow and need to start getting the creative juices flowing again and get some cards made!

Footie Boy


Ohh, it's turned cold here again today, and the rain's on now. Hope it picks up for tomorrow - we are taking the children at school out to do the Sport Relief mile so we'd like it to be at least dry!

Made this for a Footie mad boy and wanted something a bit different.

21st Easel Card


Made this for a neighbour's granddaughter. It's a first order from her - she'd heard I made cards and just thought she would ask.... Anyway, I was actually quite nervous as I didn't know her tastes etc and she just left the choice to me. However, she likes it so I'm happy with that!
