About Me

My photo
Perth, Perthshire, United Kingdom
Welcome to my little corner of the World! I live in Perthshire Scotland with my wonderful husband Eric. We have a daughter, Corinne who is married to Rob and lives in New Zealand, with their boys Harrison and twins Hadley and Dylan. Marie who has a wee boy Jackson, and Greg and his wife Kim, their wee girl Freya, even smaller baby boy Freddie and dog Buddy. I am happy when I am in my craft room, and I love making cards for Charity and also for commissions. I love scrapbooking, and I get my inspiration from my Grandchildren. They are the subjects in most of my Scrapbooking layouts. I have just started to do Mixed Media work, and I am loving it!! I have just started a craft group at our local Church centre, aptly called Saints and Scissors Club! If you can't find me, I will be in my craft room, buried under tons of stash lol!

Creatalicious Challenges #209

 Hello once again.  The sun is shining!!!!!!! Long may it continue!!

All this Covid scare and lockdown doesn't seem so bad when the sun is out.  We have been busy in the garden, and also in the greenhouse.  i love planting seeds and watching them all pop through the surface of the soil.   It makes my heart sing, knowing that better weather is on the way, and I can watch the world come alive again.

Over at Creatalicious Challenges, it is time for

 Challenge #209 and the theme is Anything Goes with the option of Slimline..


We are sponsored this time by Rachelle Anne Miller, and I am using one of her beautiful digital stamps Animal Parade


Isn't that just a really cute image? I love the wee squirrel on the back of the Tortoise's back.  

okay, it's over to you now, pop over to Creatalicious Challenges blogspot and have a alook at the Design Team's cards for some inspiration, then enter your own card into the Challenge.


Bye for now and I hope you will come back soon! xx

Creatalicious Challenges #208

Hello again and welcome to my wee corner of the world.  The weather here has been really good, and it has been great being able to spend time in the garden.  My seedlings  are all growing away in the greenhouse and it is lovely to see the wee shoots breaking through the soil  it does your heart good.  

Over at Creatalicious Challenges, we are spotlighting a new artist for me, Alex Syberia.  I used the image Just Wonderful.


I coloured my card using my Polychromos.  I have to confess, i made a muck up of this card initially.  I used Pearl drops to decorate the flowers, and it turned out a complete mess!!  i left it overnight and the next morning, I sat and scraped the pearl drops off the card and re-coloured over the damage!  I have to say it looked way better without them.  Nothing against the Pearl drops, but on this occasion, they just didn't work.  

That's all from me this time, remember to stay safe and stay healthy everyone.
