If you've stumbled across my blog, thank you for visiting.  It's been a long time since I shared a post.  It gives me great pleasure looking back at the beautiful cards I made over the years.  Lots of lovely memories of the design teams I was on and the hours spent making these cards and other projects.  I hope you enjoy your visit and are able to draw inspiration from my work.  I am still available to answer any questions you may have.

Warm wishes to you.

We have a Blog Hop

Good Morning Everyone

Welcome to my blog if you are visiting for the first time.  For those who have been here before, welcome back!  There is something special  happening today, as you can see!



As part of the SA Cardmaking and Papercraft in SA Facebook group, I welcome you to our very first blog hop.  We have 9 South African crafters' taking part this month, isn't that awesome?

Just so you know you're on the right track, your previous hop would have been from the super-talented Ansu's blog. She and her sister are the owners of  Ivytree Studio.  Their patterned paper is of the finest quality. You need to pay them a visit.

The brief was to make a card, but I've gone a step further and made 2 cards and a notepad, representing some, if not all, the colours in the Rainbow.   







Supplies used for this Card:
Base Card:  White, pre-cut scalloped card from Docrafts
Patterned Paper:  Simple Stories, Emoji Love range
Coloured Cardstock:  Papermania by Docrafts, Assorted Solid cardstock
Sentiment, Flowers, Ribbon and Die:  From my collection


Roberta Gamildien, owner of the online Scrapbook Faerie store has kindly sponsored a prize for this blog hop.  Please visit her store for all your scrapbook, card-making, mixed media and general paper-crafting needs. She has loads of products for you to choose from.  She also has a FB page, Scrapbook Faerie, please pop around and Like her page, to keep in touch with new products that arrive in her store.  Thank you Roberta for your very generous prize



I've browsed through Robert's website and was thrilled to see that she sells Santoro's Gorjuss Girl stamps. I still have 2 Gorjuss Girl stamps in my collection, from my design team days over at Totally Gorjuss.  After stamping one of them, I dusted off the old Copics (some have dried out completely...yikes), to add a bit of colour to our girl.  Apologies,  my colouring skills are not what they used to be, I am so out of practice.
