A child's Card

Sometimes it is nice to use images that are already
coloured.  The image on my card comes from a set
of animals, and each one makes a beautiful card,
which is also quick and easy to make.

Tomorrow I shall publish a card I made as a DT
member for the new challenge at Pattie's Creations.
Soon Pattie will have a big sale of her digi images, so
watch this space.

After not having internet for a few days, then no computer,
then not getting my printer to print (I just needed to sort
out the ports), I am glad to get back to my blog.  Here
is a baby girl card, which I made using stick-ons, which
I don't use too often.  Also used my new Nestabilities.

A New Card

It's great to be back to my crafting and I'm enjoying my new
'toys'.  My Glue Glider Pro works a treat and I am going to
get lots of use from my Nestabilities A2 Matting Basics A.

Now for my card.

Not looking forward to the long journey home but can't wait to
play with all my new crafting goods.  Mind you, where I shall put
everything is another matter!  But I do have plans for a niche,
which is behind the table where I do my crafting.  I just want a place
to put all the plastic boxes my paper, punches etc. are in, so that I
can have a nice tidy table when I need!

Here is my first post for the latest  challenge at Pattie's Creations. I
am one of the two new DT members and I am very happy to join this
great team. Challenges are bi-weekly. Do go and visit Pattie's page
and see what lovely digital stamps she makes.

Do visit the other new designer, Bettina, to see what beautiful cards she makes.

Just an update.  Nothing put up recently because I am in the States.
Was staying in Boston and had planned to go for a couple of days
to Philadelphia, but along came Hurricane Sandy and we headed
right back to MD to family, even though it took us nearly 10 hours,
with a couple of stops on the way, We also drove through heavy
rain for a while.  Luckily we weren't affected but wish those that
were all the best.

I have now joined the DT of Pattie's Creations and will soon put
up the card I made for the new team's first challenge.

Michael's had a crop from 2pm-8pm that I went to and  had a
good time there. Afterwards the four of us in the class, including
the instructeress went out to eat together. Of course I did some
shopping at Michael's and ordered a few things over the internet,
and so was able to make a card here.
