My first blog:

Have been thinking of doing this for some time now but today's the day I've plucked up the courage to have a go, to sign up with Google and get myself out there!

I've wanted a place to put some of the work I've been doing to help me have an overview of my journey.  I've been interested in crafting, art, journalling, etc for a long time and have done bits and pieces here and there but work, life, lack of space and time take their toll and you never see or feel you've progressed.  I'm hoping that this is the real start of my adventure with all things messy, colourful and fun.

I'm going to see if I can add some pics of some of the things I've done - really just to test and have a play.  So enjoy the playing LOL.

I remember doing this card - sometime ago now.  I've used bits and pieces from my stash, in fact most of the elements were with magazines (I subscribe to Cardmaking and Papercraft and they always have good articles and good freebies).

This card I did around the same time - it has a similar feel.  Again I've used bits from my stash, most of the elements being scraps except the lovely butterfly which I believe I got from a Create and Craft order of loads of elements on quite stiff card so ideal toppers.  I like this one it's calming and quite Spring like - ideal pick-me-up on day like today - so much rain!

Many thanks for popping by, it's been lovely to have your company, do pop back soon.
