Owl be Back!


Here is another card with a tag on it - well I might as well make use of the die while it's out and dusted. The owl stamp is free with this months Craft Stamper and very cute so had to be used as soon as it plopped on the mat today!

Zig Zag


This card took me ages even though the person it is made for had sorted and stuck down all the photos all I had to do was scan them and print them off - she had left gaps so I had to work out how to cover them! Anyway after lots of shuffling of tiny pieces of paper this is what I eventually came up with. I like the finished result so I will just have to wait and see if she approves!

Whisky Galore


I do get asked for some odd things on cards but this has to be one of the oddest! An old battered caravan! Anyway I rose to the challenge and here it is - the colour of the card obviously was dictated by the grubby colour of the caravan. All in all I'm quite pleased with the end result.
