Simply Thanks   Happy Tuesday everyone. Well after a fun relaxing Christmas everything is back to normal. Hubby has gone back to the office and the kids have gone back to school.   One thing I enjoy after Christmas is playing with any new crafty goodies I was given and making Thank You cards for friends and family.  I must say my Christmas/Birthday wish list (yes, I'm a Christmas Day baby) didn't contain to many fancy things. I was super happy to get the set of brush pens that I was after and a set of water brushes, but was over the moon with the little portable photo printer.  I started to get into making memory albums last year and this will make printing little photos I need sooooo much easier as me and our main printer never can see eye to eye!!!!   Today I would like to share a simple Thank You card I made using stencils, inks and a stamp. Using a stencil I find it can give you an amazing background with minimal work, perfect ...

Hello to all. Well where has January gone..... Oh well even if I post monthly it will be more than last year! This last week I decided to do something just for me.  So after a bit of a clear out I though I'll have a go at a tag using a long lost template. I embossed the card using a Tim Holtz embossing folder and enhanced it using Victorian Velvet and Vintage Photo.

In my clear out I found some butterfly stamps, again long forgotten, so found some scrap of decorative paper, stamped the image and embossed it with some clear powder with a bit of bling in it.

Hi there.  Well what a last few months I have had of 2012.  The main thing was finding out, well basically confirmation, that our son, Alex has High Functioning ASD. So as a family we have a hill to climb with him but we will get there. My resolutions for 2013 - well I try not to make any as it only means that i will break them.  However this year I will try and eat more healthy, try and finish a load of Xmas cards that I started and never finished in 2012, and try to blog more.  I hope that by using the the word 'try' if I don't do manage it I can say "well at least I tried"! I hope you enjoy my 1st offering for 2013. A very simple "Thank You" card for my Aunt who sent the kids some money.  The SWALK image was coloured using my Spectrum Noir/Promarker pens along with the paper flowers, which were originally white. Most of my cards always need a bit of bling so I sprayed the flowers with spray and sparkle. The background paper was from my rather big ...
