About Me

My photo
Lincoln, United Kingdom
I'm a mum to a 14 yr old. i started cardmaking a good few years ago after watching QVC. I fell for the "It's much cheaper to make your own" line and have never had a penny to my name since. I've recently tried to steer away from my usual cut and stick technique and try to be a bit more adventurous.

My Baby Girl




Here's my daughter all ready for her first day at secondary school, she went off with no problems but I was a bit tearful!

Long time no post

Well it's absolutely ages since I've posted anything. Had an eventful last few months, my brother suffered a stroke which came as a huge shock to us all but thankfully now he's on the road to recovery. Also the school I worked at merged and we had a huge task trying to move everything within our school into another building, and lastly I gave up my job at Tesco to work full time at school which is very tiring, I work in foundation stage and to say they're lively would be a huge understatement! hopefully things should settle down a bit more now :-)

Scarlet Woman


Here is my ATC for this months Paper Paradise swap, the theme is "My Favourite Colour". I used my new lady stamp bought from Paper Paradise after I'd given up all hope of ever finding it. I stamped in red Versafine ink added glossy accents to the mouth, a red rose sticker and some adhesive gems for a finishing touch.

2nd Insert

Here is my second insert for the Craftswap birthday challenge, I love the colours on this one.

The Newest Member of The Family


This is my great-niece Lilly-Mai she was born on Sunday and weighed 7lbs 14ozs and I've got to say I fell in love with her straight away, especially her dimples!
