A Golden Day



Hello again and many thanks for the lovely comments on my last card.  I have managed to make another card this week, it is for my Uncle and Aunt's Golden Wedding Anniversary.  I've got to be honest this was a very easy card to make because I made one like this last year when my mojo was flowing, but I never put it on my blog.  I am entering this one into Crafty Ann's Challenge - Love Actually.  The bp is from Sharon Duncan's Embossibilities Elegance, the Feathered Heart is a stamp from Chocolate Baroque and is one of my favourites, the flower combination is from my stash, the sentiment is computer generated onto Stardream card and embossed with Wow ep, as is the heart.

Thanks for visiting today.

Hello Again!



Well I am still here, and this is the first actual card I have made in over six months, I have made some family cards using Craft Artist. It got to the stage that cardmaking was becoming a chore rather than a pleasure, so I decided that I would give up completely, apart from my own family cards. For Christmas I had enough cards left over from the previous year when I made lots in order to have a table at our local Christmas Fair, at least I didn't have to buy any but some friends and family may have had the same card two years running lol.

This one is for Robert's granddaughter who is 17 on Tuesday, and I only remembered this morning.  I had to do something quickly. I started it in Craft Artist, but had real problems trying to cut out the topper and decided it would be just as easy to print and cut by hand.   The backing paper and image are from a cd by Debbi Moore - The Legend of Unicorns.  It's not for a challenge and I'm not sure if this will be the first of many or if my mojo completely deserts me again.

Hope you are all well,
