Birthday club card

Sorry for not having posted for so long... Got a new computer for my 40th birthday and my brother could not install all my programmes for my cameras etc. until today. But I´m happy now. The new computer is much faster than the old one. Well, I think, it will be faster than me...

I´ve made this card for Gill at the birthday club. It´s a simple card, but I hope Gill likes it. 


Another card for the birthday club...

Crafting tip from Sherry

 I've seen this wonderful crafting tip at Sherry's blog. So, I've made this cardstock labels with all my embossing folders. It's very helpful when looking for the right folder for a new card creation. You take the whole bunch and you can lay several rectangles on you card (without taking them off the ring) and then decide what embossing folder matches best.


Please stop at Sherry's blog to get all the instructions about the crafting tip !

Back again...

Due to some health problems, I couldn't post for several weeks, but I'm glad that I can go on now with my favorite hobby. So, I got some beautiful cards during the last weeks. This one came from Louise, and it was the RAK card from June. It's a wonderful card ! The female head is made of 6 layers and gives a fabulous 3D look to the card. Thank you so much, Louise :-)
