I'm in docrafts Creativity magazine!!!!!

Yes!!! That's me...on page 79!!!

I was over the moon when I was asked, way back at the end of January - but now the mag is out, I can show you!! Thats me on the right hand page! Julie is another papercrafter...very talented, and is on the left hand side with her cards. We both got sent a bunch of yummy stuff to play with and make some cards to send to them (I got the V & A Hanoverian collection)..I made 5 and sent them all as I didn't know which 3 they would have room for on the page. But I'm chuffed with how it came out! ....


This card took a lot of time to make.,..getting the circle the right size in the paper, stamping those butterflies and putting them on the acetate front, lining up the pergola to fit just in the centre. I must admit, this is my least favourite of all the cards I made,but I love the paper on the front, and hey...it got in!



I love this one. It was my Hubbys idea to put the birds on the window... he took a real interest in the cards I was making for the magazine. I cut the curtains from the textured card I was sent, and made little tiebacks from ribbon. I used a brad from the collection to hold the ribbon in place.

I love the embossing folder that came in this collection, and used it on the cream card on this card. I inked all the edges and i just LOVE that paper! The rub-ons were so easy to use and good quality. I've had some rubbish ones before (from other companies) that woudn't all rub on, but these were great!
