I fell behind a bit at the end of last week. I had no energy left after being done with work each day. The weekend has helped me recover somewhat, and I’ve been doing some catching up on the cards I had wanted to make and share over the days I missed. Not all of … More Catch Up Cards
My first day back at work after being ill went fine. If you don’t count all the public transport mishaps… On my way to work, I had to go to the bus stop after the one I needed to get off at, because my stop has apparently been replaced by a hole in the ground. … More A Variety of Cards
I have four cards to share with you today. I was playing with a variety of different sketches, a different one for each card, and I decided that would be the theme of the blog post.

It’s hop time again! The Collected Crafty Collabs hop is all about making use of supplies that we’ve squirreled away and perhaps don’t give as much love as we should. We’ll have two themes each month, and for August those are Summer/Vacation and embossing folders. I decided to use both on my project.
