I have just sent this card to my student son. The image is a Lili of the Valley coloured with Promarkers.

A PennyBlack stamp that is a firm favourite of mine along with a stamp from Hobbycraft. This was made for a new friend of mine.

This is the first card that I have made for a challenge. It is the Clean and Simple black and pink. Although I usually do fairly plain cards this was still a challenge for me in more ways than one.

Doesn't time fly when you are having fun?  I can't believe we are already a week into February and I have made so few cards recently. But as I have nowhere to sell them and my family don't really appreciate the effort it doesn't really matter if I don't make many.  I do find that cardmaking helps me to forget other things for a while so must make more of an effort this week.

I took my cards to a carers group this week and a couple of women ooohed and aaahed over them and asked how much they were. I told them that they were all £1.50 and all of a sudden interest was lost... I KNOW I don't over charge but people just don't appreciate the time and effort let alone the cost involved in making a card!

My friend has been caring for her elderly mother for the last 5 years or so.  Sadly her mother died yesterday so
I made this card. The stamp is from Papermania and the embossing folder is D'vine Swirls.
