About Me

My photo
I'm a retired primary school teacher, who started paper crafting in 2008, when I had a fancy to make my own Christmas cards. Since then, I have tried all sorts of techniques and styles - and I kind of like them all. I have been lucky enough to be on blog teams and large design teams and to do a bit of freelance demonstrating - and I love the challenge of working with different products. My crafting style is very varied - from junk journaling and art journaling, bookbinding and journal making, to quilting and patchwork - and of course I still make cards. This variety keeps me interested - and my crafty stash growing!! I'm always seeking inspiration for new projects.

A new little baby!

My husband's nephew and his girlfriend have recently become parents - and it was the first in a new generation on that side of the family - first baby, first grandchild, first great-grandchild. So, that called for a few special cards.

Many year ago I bought a huge collection of Kanban toppers and papers based around various celebrations - including births. So I used a combination of papers, toppers and Centura Pearl card to create three cards.
The first card was and 8x8 card for the parents. I used Spellbinders Grand Decorative circle dies, and Crafter's Companion Create a Card Base Die - Stacey - to create the tags. 
The second was a 7x7 for the grandparents, using Crafter's Companion Essential Only Words Dies. 
And the third was for the great grandparents. This was an A5 card, with Crafter's Companion Essentials Only Words dies.

Take care,
Cxxx
