Thinking of having a spring clean!?

I can't believe how quick last year was, ok so I went to Australia for most of December but at the moment it seems a bit of a blur. Can you think what you managed to achieve last year? at the moment I can't besides spending most of it studying. (yawn, yawn I hear you say).

Perth area is so lush, managed to see and swim with the wild dolphins in the ocean, stroke cute koala bears and kangaroo's with their joeys (I wish i could sit and cuddle them all day). Visit places which just wouldn't survive over here in the UK. Beaches are more practical and family friendly, by providing toilet blocks and barbecue areas all along the front. Ok the shops remind me abit of America more than here and obviously there isn't any Tesco or Asda over there but its more about communities.

I will have to upload some pictures so you can see what I am dreaming about......

Stay at home mums can actually spend time with the kids and enjoy other mums and families company. They have more freedom to go places and children do activities which are subsidised by the local government.

Well that is enough of me ranting.

Im back!

Well, I am back!

Have finally been able to get my card stash out again for some cardmaking sessions. Will be posting some new creations on here shortly.



Have ventured into the unknown in terms of Penny Black's and Magnolia's Tilda and Edwin. I find them all so adorable.

I am about to look into setting up my business as well (if I can tear myself away from the cards for 5 minutes) to start selling the cards and not jsut making them for family and friends. Wish me luck ;)

Yay.... Pink Petticoat

Well I have finally managed to do my Pink Petticoat Christmas order, after the Internet Downtime and managed to do and yes I am about to say it...
Quite a few new cards..... I am trying to upload these onto the blog for you all to see. Fingers crossed I can figure out how ;)

After reading a few of your comments, which I truly appreciate, the background papers I have used are those of Pink Petticoats, Doodle-icious Christmas Collection. See here for the link

Well what a week or two!!!

I can't honestly believe how much time has flown since last posting a message.

A few days after setting this up I took my stash of handmade cards into work to see if any would sell and what they thought of them.
I had positive feedback but was a bit disappointed in only selling 6 cards the one day and 2 the next. However, the Monday after I received 4 more orders for cards, 2 being for a mum and dad and the other for a sister (as well as birthday cards).

At first I was slightly disappointed, but have found that in a way if I hadn't taken them into work I wouldn't have been able to sell them full stop. So far... I have been able not to spend the profits. Not sure how long that will last though???!!

Had a bad start to the last weekend. BT had to disconnect our extensions giving us only one main box, so unfortunately we was back to a few days without any internet. But hey, it gave the best opprtunity to have a really good tidy in my craft corner.

I just love making christmas cards, - my boyfriend can't wait to put up the xmas tree, now I know I'm not as eager as that. The only problem is - he will have to find it first.
